The British Health Security Agency announced, on Monday, that a rare human injury has been recorded in bird flu in England.
“The transmission of bird influenza virus to humans is rare and has only occurred limited times in the United Kingdom,” UKHSA (UKHSA) said in a statement.
The statement stated that the person who did not specify his gender was infected at a farm in central England, where he was rubbing “a large number of infected birds.”
His condition is described as “good” and is treated in the infectious diseases care unit.
According to the agency, “the danger to people is very little,” stressing that it has not been “proven” the transmission of the virus between humans.
And “Hadd” all the people who were in contact with the injured, and the agency said it suggested “providing an antiviral treatment for people who were most vulnerable” to the virus.
The agency says this is a different strain from those between mammals and birds in the United States.
In early January, the first human influenza was recorded in the United States, and the injured person was over 65, and he suffers from other diseases, the first serious condition of a human H5N1 H5N1 virus recorded in the United States.
