Human illness from avian influenza H7N3, British Columbia

S Aleina Tweed et al. Emerg Infect Dis. 2004 Dec.

Abstract

Avian influenza that infects poultry in close proximity to humans is a concern because of its pandemic potential. In 2004, an outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza H7N3 occurred in poultry in British Columbia, Canada. Surveillance identified two persons with confirmed avian influenza infection. Symptoms included conjunctivitis and mild influenzalike illness.
