Dürrwald R, Wedde M, Biere B, Oh DY, He?ler-Klee M. Zoonotic infection with swine A/H1 av N1 influenza virus in a child, Germany, June 2020. Euro Surveill. 2020 Oct;25(42)
A zoonotic A/sw/H1avN1 1C.2.2 influenza virus infection was detected in a German child that presented with influenza-like illness, including high fever. There was a history of close contact with pigs 3 days before symptom onset. The child recovered within 3 days. No other transmissions were observed. Serological investigations of the virus isolate revealed cross-reactions with ferret antisera against influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus, indicating a closer antigenic relationship with A(H1N1)pdm09 than with the former seasonal H1N1 viruses.
