[h=1]Introduction of Eurasian-Origin Influenza A(H8N4) Virus into North America by Migratory Birds.[/h] Ramey AM, Reeves AB, Donnelly T, Poulson RL, Stallknecht DE.
[h=3]Abstract[/h] We identified a Eurasian-origin influenza A(H8N4) virus in North America by sampling wild birds in western Alaska, USA. Evidence for repeated introductions of influenza A viruses into North America by migratory birds suggests that intercontinental dispersal might not be exceedingly rare and that our understanding of viral establishment is incomplete.
