Mexico - Man dies while infected with HPAI (H5N2) in April 2024 - No subsequent infections detected
« Reply #1 on: »
SUMMARY - The 59-year old man from the country of Mexico who was believed to have died from H5N2 (a type of HPAI, Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza) has had his cause of death changed as a result of a medical investigation conducted by Mexican authorities. Although the man was infected with H5N2, a panel of medical experts have concluded that the man died from other co-morbidities that he was already suffering from. It is important to note that the World Health Organization (WHO) did not arrive at this conclusion but is relying upon the investigation led by the Mexican government.
