After reports of unusually high mortality rates among ducks on farms in Java Island, Indonesia, in September 2012, influenza A(H5N1) viruses were detected and characterized. Sequence analyses revealed all genes clustered with contemporary clade 2.3.2.1 viruses, rather than enzootic clade 2.1.3 viruses, indicating the introduction of an exotic H5N1 clade into Indonesia.

Article Synopsis
- Bangladesh has faced over 560 H5N1 outbreaks in poultry since 2007, primarily affecting commercial chicken farms that use imported vaccines which may not align with local virus strains.
- A study examined the effectiveness of these vaccines by sampling feces from vaccinated and unvaccinated chicken farms across the country, finding only a small percentage of farms tested positive for the virus.
- Results indicated that vaccinated farms had a lower detection of H5N1 virus, but due to low vaccination rates and limited positive samples, the overall effectiveness of the vaccine in reducing viral shedding remains uncertain.

Synanthropic wild rodents associated with agricultural operations may represent a risk path for transmission of high pathogenicity avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) from wild birds to poultry birds. However, their susceptibility to HPAIVs remains unclear. In the present study, house mice (), brown rats (), and black rats () were experimentally exposed to H5N1 subtype HPAIVs to evaluate their vulnerability to infection.

High pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI) virus H5N1 first emerged in Bangladesh in 2007. Despite the use of vaccines in chickens since 2012 to control HPAI, HPAI H5Nx viruses have continued to infect poultry, and wild birds, resulting in notable mass mortalities in house crows (). The first HPAI H5Nx viruses in Bangladesh belonged to clade 2.

The evolution of the H5 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses has led to the emergence of distinct groups with genetically similar clusters of hemagglutinin (HA) sequences. In this study, a consensus H5 HA sequence was cloned into the baculovirus expression system. The HA protein was expressed in baculovirus-infected insect cells and utilized as the antigen for the production of an oil emulsion-based H5 avian influenza vaccine (rBacH5Con5Mut).
