Human infection with avian influenza A/H7N9 virus: an assessment of clinical severity

Yu H, Cowling BJ, Feng L, Lau EH, Liao Q, Tsang TK, et al. Lancet. 2013 Jul 13;382(9887):138-45.

Background
Characterisation of the severity profile of human infections with influenza viruses of animal origin is a part of pandemic risk assessment, and an important part of the assessment of disease epidemiology. Our objective was to assess the clinical severity of human infections with avian influenza A H7N9 virus, which emerged in China in early 2013.

Comparative epidemiology of human infections with avian influenza A/H7N9 and H5N1 viruses in China: a population-based study of laboratory-confirmed cases

Cowling BJ, Jin L, Lau EH, Liao Q, Wu P, Jiang H, et al. Lancet. 2013 Jul 13;382(9887):129-37.

Background:
The novel influenza A H7N9 virus emerged recently in mainland China, whereas the influenza A H5N1 virus has infected people in China since 2003. Both infections are thought to be mainly zoonotic. We aimed to compare the epidemiological characteristics of the complete series of laboratory-confirmed cases of both viruses in mainland China so far.
