The H5N1 avian influenza virus continues its global sweep in 2025, shaping poultry production, international health responses, and trade. Let's break down its impact by continent.
In the Americas, the United States has faced over 100 outbreaks in poultry and wild birds in 32 states this year, and 70 human cases since 2024 according to the CDC and AAO. Mexico saw its first human fatality this spring. In South America, Peru reported new outbreaks in backyard poultry. The Pan American Health Organization highlights continued mass poultry culling and significant economic strain across North, Central, and South America.
Europe reports active cases in 24 countries this spring, with 20 human infections and four deaths between March and June. Most outbreaks are concentrated in western and central Europe, says the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. The UK documented rare mammalian spillover to sheep, raising new concerns for surveillance.
In Asia, Cambodia faces an unusual rise in human infections, with WHO noting 11 lab-confirmed cases and several deaths this year. India reported a fatal human case in April. These cases, often linked to backyard poultry, underscore persistent rural risks.
Africa continues to battle periodic poultry outbreaks, although fewer human cases have been reported recently. Meanwhile, Australia remains so far untouched by the 2020-2025 wave, according to Wikipedia's outbreak chronology.
International research efforts surged, with the WHO and the Food and Agriculture Organization issuing joint risk assessments and urging deeper surveillance in both wild and domestic animals. Researchers in North America, Europe, and East Asia are sequencing viral genomes in real time, mapping new clades and transmission patterns, as detailed by the CDC and ECDC. The recent detection of H5N1 in cows and sheep in the US and UK triggered new studies on mammal-to-mammal transmission potential, a key global concern.
WHO and FAO statements emphasize continued low risk to the general public but warn of higher risk for poultry workers and the importance of occupational protections. Both agencies call for improved real-time data sharing, rapid outbreak notification, and updated pandemic preparedness plans.
Cross-border issues complicate control, as the virus travels along migratory bird routes and through legal and illicit poultry trade. Trade restrictions, particularly on eggs and poultry meat, have disrupted markets and caused price spikes, as seen in the US late last year when 20 million chickens were culled due to outbreak control.
Vaccine development is advancing, with multinational collaborations testing targeted animal vaccines and updating candidate human vaccines. However, as of July 2025, no licensed human vaccine for highly pathogenic H5N1 is available, according to the AAO and CDC.
National strategies vary: the US, EU, and Japan prioritize large-scale culling and tight farm biosecurity, while Cambodia and parts of Africa focus on community education and swift outbreak reporting. Such differences reflect diverse infrastructure and resources.
That’s today’s global scan. The H5N1 situation evolves daily, with research, surveillance, and international coordination at the forefront. Thank you for tuning in. Come back next week for more. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more from me, check out Quiet Please dot A I.
