In January 2019, high mortalities were reported among African Penguins () in a breeding colony on Halifax Island, Namibia, Africa. Analysis of samples by reverse transcription quantitative PCR indicated the presence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) subtype H5N8. Sequence analysis of the hemagglutinin and neuraminidase genes confirmed the presence of the virus in the birds and its high similarity to HPAI subtype H5N8 identified in South Africa in 2017. There have been no previous reports of HPAI H5N8 in Namibia.
2019 年 1 月，在非洲纳米比亚哈利法克斯岛的一个繁殖地，报告了大量非洲企鹅（）死亡。通过反转录定量聚合酶链反应分析样本表明，存在高致病性禽流感（HPAI）H5N8 亚型。血凝素和神经氨酸酶基因的序列分析证实了该病毒在鸟类中的存在，并且与 2017 年在南非发现的 HPAI H5N8 病毒高度相似。此前在纳米比亚没有 HPAI H5N8 的报告。
