Abstract

Brazil's first confirmed H5N1 outbreak in commercial poultry marks a critical shift in South America's avian influenza landscape. The event calls for strengthened coordination between animal and human health sectors, improved border surveillance, and early-warning systems to reduce zoonotic risk in regions with growing poultry production and international connectivity.

Keywords: H5n1 subtype; Influenza in birds; disease outbreaks; influenza a virus.
