The new avian influenza type A (H5N8) has spread to seven people in southern Russia, Chief Medical Officer Anna Popova, head of the Russian Consumer Protection Inspectorate (Rospotrebnadzor) said at a press conference in Moscow.
According to Popova, this was the first proven case that A (H5N8) spread to humans. The genetic material of the virus was detected by the Novosibirsk Vector Center of the Rospotrebnadzor in employees of a poultry farm where bird flu was detected in December 2020. (Pogár Demeter, MTI)
