The World Health Organization reports that there have been cases of disease among poultry in Mexico, but the patient in question had no history of contact with infected animals. Health officials in Mexico are currently investigating the cause of the infection. It was also mentioned that the patient had underlying diseases, and no additional cases of morbidity were reported among those who were in close contact with the patient.
Prof. Cyril Cohen from Bar-Ilan University describes the case as a serious and unusual matter, as this is the first recorded human death from the H5N2 strain of bird flu. He notes that while cases of bird flu have been documented in animals for years, this particular case is unique. The professor stresses the importance of determining how the patient was infected, as there is currently no evidence that the disease can be transmitted from person to person.
Despite the concerning nature of the case, there is no cause for widespread concern at this stage. The patient’s underlying health conditions may have played a role in the severity of the illness, and there is no indication that the disease poses a significant risk of human-to-human transmission. Further investigation is needed to understand the source of the infection and to prevent similar cases from occurring in the future.
