Re: Korea - High pathogenic avian flu outbreak on a duck farm prompts quarantine on 24 farms, suspected H5N1 - Chungbuk province

Yonhap is a reliable newssource in S Korea. Many other newssources also mention H5N8. Even the Korean Wikipedia has it. I did not see Wikipedia being wrong very often.

H5N8 is known from an outbreak in China in 2010 and from Ireland in 1983.




Vet Microbiol. 2013 May 3;163(3-4):351-7. doi: 10.1016/j.vetmic.2012.12.025. Epub 2013 Jan 17.

Characterization of three H5N5 and one H5N8 highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses in China
.

Abstract

One H5N8 and three H5N5 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses which derived their HA genes from the Asian H5N1 lineage were isolated from poultry during 2009-2010 in mainland China. Pathogenicity studies showed that these viruses were all highly virulent to chickens, while they varied from moderate to high virulence in mice and from mild to intermediate virulence in mallards. Phylogenetic analyses showed that these viruses were reassortants bearing the H5N1 backbone while acquiring PB1, NP and NA genes from unidentified non-H5N1 viruses, and had developed into three distinct genotypes (B-D). Molecular characterization indicated that all these viruses might resist to antiviral agents. Our findings highlight the emergence and development of HPAI H5 viruses of other NA subtypes in H5N1 endemic areas and their potential threat to poultry industry and public health.
