Outbreak of H9N2 avian influenza viruses in lesser rhea in Peru, June-July 2025

2026-05-13

Abstract excerpt

Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) are endemic in the Americas and responsible for outbreaks in both domestic and wild birds that occasionally spill over into humans. We report the first known outbreak of AIV H9N2 in lesser rhea ( Rhea pennata ), also known as Darwin’s rhea, in the region of Puno-Peru. The animals in this study lived in an isolated conservation center located in remote highlands above 4,000 m.a.s.l....
