Data released by the World Health Organization shows that, as of July 2025, there have been 986 documented human cases of H5N1 influenza worldwide since 2003, with Cambodia seeing a sharp resurgence. Between January and July 2025, Cambodia reported 11 new human cases, including 6 fatalities, spanning provinces such as Siem Reap, Takeo, and Prey Veng. Most cases involved direct exposure to infected poultry. Since the virus re-emerged in Cambodia in 2023, the country has recorded 27 cases, with nearly half resulting in death.
Turning to North America, the United States has become a major epicenter. By early 2025, H5N1 outbreaks were recorded across all 50 states. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost 70 people in the U.S. have contracted the virus since April 2024, with at least one fatality. Critically, the virus has crossed from birds into dairy cattle, with more than 970 herds affected in 17 states and over 156 million poultry lost across the country. Ohio, Pennsylvania, and California are among the hardest-hit states, and outbreaks at large-scale layer farms have deepened egg shortages nationwide.
Genomic analyses trace H5N1's cross-border march, particularly in the Middle East. Studies reveal close genetic links in poultry viruses across Turkey, Lebanon, Egypt, and Israel, highlighting how migratory birds and cross-border trade fuel ongoing transmission. By May 2025, new variants were widely detected in cattle and mammals, including novel D1.1 and B3.13 clades in U.S. dairy cows. These variants have demonstrated the virus’s ability to jump species, presenting heightened risks for spillover to humans.
Visualizing current trends, data points to a steep, near-exponential increase in mammalian cases in North America since late 2024, while Southeast Asia remains the global human hotspot. Comparative trends show the U.S. now leads in animal cases, but human infections are rising more rapidly in Southeast Asia, particularly Cambodia, where the fatality rate exceeds 50 percent. Meanwhile, European outbreaks remain stable but require constant surveillance.
Containment outcomes have been mixed. The U.S. has aggressively culled infected birds and implemented strict farm biosecurity, yet persistent outbreaks in large layer farms and dairy herds highlight gaps—especially in rapid containment and sanitation measures. By contrast, several Asian nations have stemmed human transmission through coordinated poultry vaccination and market closures, but challenges remain where backyard farming persists.
Current travel advisories urge special caution for travelers to affected rural zones in Cambodia, the United States’ dairy belt—including Ohio, Pennsylvania, and California—and Middle Eastern poultry trade hubs. The U.S. FDA continues to stress the importance of consuming only pasteurized dairy products.
Emerging H5N1 variants, notably D1.1 in U.S. cattle, underscore the importance of ongoing genomic monitoring. These novel lineages may alter transmission dynamics and challenge containment efforts.
