Investigation of outbreaks of highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza in waterfowl and wild birds in Hong Kong in late 2002
Trevor M. Ellis,R Barry Bousfield,Lucy A Bissett,K. C. Dyrting,Geraldine S. M. Luk,S T Tsim,K. M. Sturm-Ramirez,Robert G. Webster,Yi Guan,J. S. Malik Peiris +9 more
TL;DR: Control measures implemented for the second outbreak included strict isolation, culling, increased sanitation and vaccination, and infection on a chicken farm was detected 1 week after the second waterfowl park outbreak was detected, on the same day the second grey heron case was detected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reemerging H5N1 Influenza Viruses in Hong Kong in 2002 Are Highly Pathogenic to Ducks
K. M. Sturm-Ramirez,Trevor M. Ellis,Barry Bousfield,Lucy A Bissett,K. C. Dyrting,Jerold E. Rehg,Leo L.M. Poon,Yi Guan,Malik Peiris,Robert G. Webster +9 more
TL;DR: Despite a high level of genomic homology, the human isolate showed striking biological differences from its avian homologue in a duck model, suggesting that significant antigenic variation has recently occurred among H5N1 viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vaccination of chickens against H5N1 avian influenza in the face of an outbreak interrupts virus transmission.
Trevor M. Ellis,Connie Y. H. Leung,Mary K.W. Chow,Lucy A Bissett,William Wong,Yi Guan,J. S. Malik Peiris +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that H5 vaccine can interrupt virus transmission in a field setting in Hong Kong in 2002 when there were outbreaks of H5N1 disease in waterfowl in two recreational parks, wild water birds, several poultry markets and five chicken farms.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of a monthly rest day on avian influenza virus isolation rates in retail live poultry markets in Hong Kong
N. Y H. Kung,Yi Guan,N. R. Perkins,Lucy A Bissett,Trevor M. Ellis,L. Sims,R. S. Morris,Kennedy F. Shortridge,Joseph S. M. Peiris +8 more
TL;DR: Test the hypothesis that a rest day in the LPMs where the stalls are completely emptied of poultry, cleansed, and restocked will reduce the isolation rates of avian influenza viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk for infection with highly pathogenic influenza A virus (H5N1) in chickens, Hong Kong, 2002.
Nina Y. Kung,Roger S. Morris,Nigel R. Perkins,Les D. Sims,Trevor M. Ellis,Lucy A Bissett,Mary Chow,Ken F. Shortridge,Yi Guan,Malik Peiris +9 more
TL;DR: Infection was spread to commercial poultry farms through retail marking of live birds.
