ECDC & EFSA. Understanding avian influenza pandemic drivers crucial in reducing risks to human health. European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control
The report examines intrinsic drivers related to virus characteristics or host susceptibility. It also discusses extrinsic drivers which may increase exposure of mammals and humans to avian influenza viruses, thereby stimulating mutation and adaptation to mammals. Such drivers include the ecology of host species such as wildlife, human activities like farming practices and use of natural resources, climatic and environmental factors.
