MARCHENKO VY, Susloparov IM, Kolosova NP, Goncharo. Influenza A(H5N8) virus isolation in Russia, 2014. Arch Virol. 2015 Aug 26.
In this study, we report the isolation of influenza A(H5N8) virus from a Eurasian wigeon (Anas penelope) in Sakha Republic of the Russian Far East. The strain A/wigeon/Sakha/1/2014 (H5N8) has been shown to be pathogenic for mammals. It is similar to the strains that caused outbreaks in wild birds and poultry in Southeast Asia and Europe in 2014
