Bird flu viruses ‘gaining function’ through natural mixing, warn scientists | 12 Nov 2026 | The bird flu virus’s resurgence began with an 11-year-old. In February 2023, the schoolgirl was admitted to a hospital in Phnom Penh with severe pneumonia — within a day, she was dead. Tests soon revealed that she had contracted avian influenza: Cambodia hadn’t reported a human case of bird flu since 2014, but the hiatus was over. Since then, 39 more people have been infected and 15 have died in the Southeast Asian country — a case fatality rate of roughly 40 per cent.
