Due to the commencement of serious symptoms on the 17th of April which included fever, shortness of breath, diarrhea, nausea, and general weakness, he had been hospitalized for 3 weeks. A week after getting transported to a hospital in Mexico City, the guy passed away on the same day. The World Health Organization representative Christian Lindmeier informed reporters in Geneva that the death was “a multiple-factor death, not a death linked to (H5N2).”
According to Lindmeier, (H5N2) was found in his body when it was examined for the flu and other viruses. Discovered were 17 hospital contacts; however, none of them tested positive for influenza. There were 12 interactions in the weeks earlier at the man’s apartment. They all also tested negative. According to the World Health Organization, another case girl who was (2.5-years-old) when she returned from India required hospital intensive care therapy after testing positive for the (H5N1) type of bird flu.
“This is the 1st case of bird influenza A(H5N1) virus-related human illness that has been confirmed by Australia,” officials expressed. In this case, the girl had been to India, where the World Health Organization noted that “the infection certainly happened and that these particular viruses had been discovered in birds in the past.”In the words of Markus Lipp, top food safety official at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, eating poultry has a “very low” chance of catching bird flu. As far as we know, humans have no bird influenza receptors located in their digestive tract, as compared to several animal species. Thus, from this viewpoint alone, the possibility is extremely rare.
