A new study suggests #H5N1 #birdflu circulating in cows might have an easier path to adapting to humans than previous versions of the virus. One mutation changed the receptors to which the virus binds from those in birds to those found in human upper airways. www.statnews.com/2024/12/05/h...
Single mutation in H5N1 bird flu virus may make it more infectious to humans, study finds
