BEIJING, April 14 (Reuters) - Two people in the central Chinese province of Henan have been infected by a new strain of avian influenza, the first cases found in the region and bringing the total number nationwide to 51, Xinhua state news agency said on Sunday.

One of the victims, a 34-year old man in the city of Kaifeng, is now critically ill in hospital, while the other, a 65-year old farmer from Zhoukou, is stable. The two cases do not appear to be connected.

Next Potential H7N9 Emergence
Guizhou and Hunan

Guizhou and Hunan are probable points of early emergence based on the limited genetic data from 7 sequences (4 human, 2 avian, 1 environment).

Guizhou holds a higher probability of emergence, but obviously a lower probability of timely reporting.

Guizhou also demonstrates a higher potential for additional genetic revision concerning pathogenicity upon emergence in that region.

H7N9 Human Isolates on Deposit at GISAID carries a cumulative discussion and up-to-date analysis of emergent H7N9 genetic features related to human and avian pathogenicity of this outbreak.

Potential Passerine Involvement
as Emergent H7N9
Reservoir

Current emergent H7N9 Hemagglutinin genetic evidence suggests that a wider species list of Passerines should be sampled and sequenced for Influenza A H5 and H7 serotypes in Shanghai, Guizhou, Hong Kong, Japan & Korea, including the following list in order of descending importance:

Pica pica and other Pica genus species
Cissa chinensis and other Cissa genus species
Garrulus lidthi
Hirundo rustica
Delichon urbicum

One or more of these Passerine species may presently carry genetics related to the HA emergence.

Detailed surveillance of these species in three areas of Guangdong province may prove beneficial:

Shenzhen
Guangzhou
Huadong
