Europe has seen a significant decline in highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) cases in poultry and wild birds, reaching the lowest numbers since 2019/2020, as reported by EFSA, ECDC, and EURL for the period from 16 March to 14 June 2024. This improvement is attributed to factors like flock immunity and reduced viral contamination. However, the situation remains critical outside Europe, with notable outbreaks in North America and Asia, and new detections in mammals in the US and Norway. The A(H5N1) virus genotype B3.13 has spread among various mammal species in America, affecting over 130 dairy farms in 12 US states. Sporadic human cases of various avian influenza strains have also been reported globally, prompting experts to recommend enhanced surveillance for the upcoming influenza season.
