Clinical evaluation of vaccines for pandemic influenza H5N1
Abstract
Avian influenza (H5N1) was first associated with human respiratory disease in Hong Kong in 1997. In 2004 the virus re-emerged among poultry and migratory birds in Asia and has spread into Europe and Africa, raising concerns that an H5 pandemic is imminent.
