Vietnam records first human patient with bird flu A/H9N2
https://asianews.network/vietnam-re...ient-with-bird-flu-a-h9n2-no-outbreak-so-far/HANOI – Việt Nam records the first-ever A/H9N2 infection, in a male patient from the southern province of Tiền Giang, health authorities confirmed. A/H9N2 influenza primarily spreads from poultry to humans, and there is thus far no evidence of human-to-human transmission.
The symptoms of the disease are similar to other flu-like illnesses, such as fever and cough.
