SUMMARY - The strain of HPAI (Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza) |
|
that is presently circulating amongst cow herds in the United |
|
States is presently not well adapted to transmit itself through |
|
the air, according to researchers from the country of Canada who |
|
purposely infected ferrets in order to test the transmission |
|
abilities of the virus. Only one out of four ferrets, isolated |
|
from contact with known infected ferrets, developed antibodies |
|
to the virus. |
