Infection with Possible Precursor of Avian Influenza A(H7N9) Virus in a Child, China, 2013

Infection with Possible Precursor of Avian Influenza A(H7N9) Virus in a Child, China, 2013

During the early stage of the avian influenza A(H7N9) epidemic in China in March 2013, a strain of the virus was identified in a 4-year-old boy with mild influenza symptoms. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that this strain, which has similarity to avian subtype H9N2 viruses, may represent a precurso...
