Fever slows seasonal flu by blocking viral replication, but bird-flu strains resist heat. New research reveals why—and what ...

A study uncovers the viral gene that lets bird flu beat fever, reshaping surveillance strategies as H5N1 continues to spread.

Bird flu viruses are a particular threat to humans because they can replicate at temperatures higher than a typical fever, ...

Bird flu viruses may be more dangerous to humans than previously thought because they can survive and grow even when the body ...

New research reveals that the bird flu viruses may be capable of replicating at temperatures higher than an average fever, a ...

Avian influenza viruses pose a specific risk to people, as they can multiply at temperatures exceeding a normal fever, which ...

Researchers discovered why bird flu can survive temperatures that stop human flu in its tracks. A key gene, PB1, gives avian viruses the ability to replicate even at fever-level heat. Mice experiments ...

The highly pathogenic avian influenza, commonly called bird flu, has led to the culling of hundreds of millions of birds in ...

The virus lives in the nasal secretions and manure of infected birds. It can be spread by direct contact between birds and ...

New research shows feverish temperatures make it more difficult for viruses to hijack our cells. A mouse study suggests it's ...
