According to the expert, type A (H5N2) infection is actually an atypical event, but not an unusual event since there are many types of components. This is hemogleten, denoted by the letter H and neuraminidase – N. And before, people also suffered from bird flu.
Usually, a person becomes ill if the virus contains H1, H2, H3 and N1, N2. But the presence of H5N2 suggests that bird flu has undergone an even greater mutation and that the virus is approaching the interspecies barrier.
And the H5N2 infection came from a bird that had never happened before.
“But the bird flu problem has been around for decades. We are afraid that the virus will mutate, so-called reassortment will occur, that is, homologous gene segments will change and a new virus will emerge that can be transmitted from person to person. The aerosol mechanism and airborne transmission will begin to work and this virus will completely overcome the interspecies barrier. This would be a serious emergency. “It is not pleasant for a person to be infected by a bird, but this may have happened several decades before the disaster, so nothing supernatural happened,” the scientist noted.
