Jiang W, Dong C, Liu S, Peng C, Yin X, Liang S, Zh. Emerging Novel Reassortant Influenza A(H5N6) Viruses in Poultry and Humans, China, 2021. Emerg Infect Dis. 2022 May;28(5):1064-1066
A novel highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N6) clade 2.3.4.4b virus was isolated from a poultry market in China that a person with a confirmed case had visited. Most genes of the avian and human H5N6 isolates were closely related. The virus also exhibited distinct antigenicity to the Re-11 vaccine strain.
