Chung DH, Gomez DR, Vargas JM, Amador BL, Torchett. Low Pathogenicity Avian Influenza (H5N2) Viruses, Dominican Republic. Emerg Infect Dis. 2020 Dec;26(12):3094-3096
Low pathogenicity avian influenza (H5N2) virus was detected in poultry in the Dominican Republic in 2007 and re-emerged in 2017. Whole-genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis show introduction of an H5N2 virus lineage from Mexico into poultry in the Dominican Republic, then divergence into 3 distinct genetic subgroups during 2007-2019.
