[h=1]Avian Influenza A(H7N9) Virus Infection in 2 Travelers Returning from China to Canada, January 2015(1).[/h] Skowronski DM, Chambers C, Gustafson R, Purych DB, Tang P, Bastien N, Krajden M, Li Y.
[h=3]Abstract[/h] In January 2015, British Columbia, Canada, reported avian influenza A(H7N9) virus infection in 2 travelers returning from China who sought outpatient care for typical influenza-like illness. There was no further spread, but serosurvey findings showed broad population susceptibility to H7N9 virus. Travel history and timely notification are critical to emerging pathogen detection and response.
