Avian Influenza
Avian influenza (AI), informally known as “avian flu” or “bird flu,” causes devastating economic losses to poultry industries worldwide and is a... -
Rational approach to vaccination against highly pathogenic avian influenza in Nigeria: a scientific perspective and global best practice
Since 2006, highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) subtypes H5Nx have adversely affected poultry production in Nigeria. Successive waves of...
