Researchers are seeking to develop tests to spot emerging strains of bird flu which are categorized as mild but have the potential to become more dangerous, to help assess and mitigate the likely risks to wild birds and poultry.
Their study will focus on several types of bird flu viruses that are not presently categorized alongside severe strains known to be a threat, but which are linked to recent outbreaks of infections with severe symptoms, high death rates, and which pose a risk to public health.
Outcomes from the three-year, €1.2 million project could help identify risks associated with emerging strains, so that those with high potential for disease can be managed appropriately.
