The Ministry of Health reports the death of the first human case of avian influenza A (H5N1) in Mexico.
It is reported that a three-year-old girl diagnosed with avian influenza A(H5N1) and a resident of Durango died today at 1:35 a.m. due to respiratory complications resulting from the infection.
It is a viral disease that affects birds (wild and domestic), mammals and occasionally humans.
Local, state, and federal health, environmental, and agricultural authorities continue prevention and control measures within the context of One Health. So far, 38 human contacts of the case have been sampled, all of which have tested negative.
No additional human cases have been identified, and the risk of further cases is considered low.
