Avian influenza A viruses (AIVs) pose a threat to global health because of their sporadic zoonotic transmission and potential to cause pandemics. Genomic surveillance of AIVs has become a powerful, cost-effective approach for studying virus transmission, evolution, and dissemination, and has the potential to inform outbreak control efforts and policies.
禽流感病毒 (AIVs) 由于其偶发性的动物传染病传播和潜在的大流行威胁,对全球健康构成威胁。对 AIVs 的基因组监测已成为研究病毒传播、进化和传播的一种强大、具有成本效益的方法,并有可能为疫情控制工作和政策提供信息。
