Avian Flu Watch: Global H5N1 Tracker

This week, we are tracking a highly dynamic H5N1 landscape, with new animal and occasional human infections reshaping global risk.

Globally, the UN Food and Agriculture Organization reports nearly one thousand H5N1 and related highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreaks in animals across 38 countries since late September, affecting millions of birds in commercial and backyard settings. The virus remains entrenched in wild bird reservoirs on every continent except Antarctica, sustaining a steady baseline of transmission.

Geographically, three hotspots stand out. In Europe, the European Commission and...

This is Avian Flu Watch, your global H5N1 tracker. We’re monitoring the spread, the hotspots, and the evolving risk.

Since early 2025, highly pathogenic H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b has driven a sustained global epizootic. Wild birds remain the primary vector, with transmission now entrenched across North America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America. Antarctica reported its first H5N1 detection in late 2023, raising concerns about catastrophic breeding failures in immunologically naïve wildlife.

In the Americas, the picture is complex. In 2025, nine countries reported 508 outbreaks in bir...
