Confirmation of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5N1 Associated with an Unexpected Mortality Event in South Polar Skuas (Stercorarius maccormicki) during 2023-2024 Surveillance Activities in Antarctica

2024-04-11

Abstract excerpt

From December 2023 to March 2024, a surveillance program to detect HPAI H5N1 was performed on Antarctica Territory, at Fildes Peninsula (King George Island, Maritime Antarctic), and James Ross Island. At Fildes Peninsula, samples from marine birds and mammals from four sampling locations were collected, based on their accessibility and the presence of animal colonies: Ardley Island, which presents a high concentra...
