Avian flu H5 variant detected in Western Australia, first time in Australia
The H5 variant of avian influenza has been detected in a bird found on a remote beach in Western Australia, marking the first time the disease has appeared in Australia. Further testing confirmed the H5 strain in a brown skua, with a second bird, a giant northern petrel, also showing a suspected positive result. Authorities are urging the public to avoid contact with sick or dead birds and are preparing response measures, though there is no evidence of mass mortalities or infection in poultry at this time.
