Identifying features and impacts of public health strategies that can be used to prevent, reduce and/or mitigate avian influenza spillover to humans
Avian influenza is commonly found in birds, but it can also infect non-human mammals (e.g., cats, foxes, bears), and humans. As an emerging infectious disease with pandemic potential, it is important to identify effective upstream and downstream public health strategies (particularly those that adopt a One Health approach) to prevent, reduce, and/or mitigate the risk of avian spillover into humans. This rapid evidence profile was requested to inform initial deliberations about such public health strategies and therefore focused on identifying existing evidence syntheses where evidence from single studies was identified and synthesized.
