A Comprehensive Review of the COVID-19 Pandemic and the Role of IoT, Drones, AI, Blockchain, and 5G in Managing its Impact (2020, background): “This was because the virus attacked hosts by causing cytokine storms in the patient’s immune system, which often lead to death [26].”
Influenza Virus Evolution, Host Adaptation and Pandemic Formation (2010, background): “It is not known why zoonotic infection with previous swine-adapted IAV strains, including the 1976 Fort Dix strain (Kilbourne, 2006), in which human-to-human transmission was demonstrated, did not result in a stable host switch and emergence of a novel pandemic IAV (Shinde et al., 2009; Van Reeth…”
A perspective on the structural and functional constraints for immune evasion: insights from the influenza virus (2017, background): “While the seasonal H3N2 virus continues to circulate until the present day, the history of human H1N1 virus is more complex [36, 37].”
Global Catastrophic Risks (2008, background): “We also have learned that, unlike influenza, close and sustained contact with patients was required for the further perpetuation of the epidemic (Kilbourne, 2006b).”
Development of a Pan-H1 Influenza Vaccine (2018, background): “to 1950 outbreaks conferred protection against the 1977 strains (22).”
Avian Influenza Virus (H5N1): a Threat to Human Health (2007, background): “ries (106, 174), it is highly likely that we will confront such”
NLRP3 (NALP3/CIAS1/Cryopyrin) mediates key innate and healing responses to influenza A virus via the regulation of caspase-1 (2009, neutral): “Seasonal influenza A virus epidemics are a major cause of morbidity and economic loss, with 35,000–45,000 annual deaths estimated in the U.S. alone (Kilbourne, 2006).”
RIG-I detects viral genomic RNA during negative-strand RNA virus infection. (2010, background): “Flu is a segmented RNA virus, and annual flu epidemics result in an estimated 250,000–500,000 deaths worldwide (Kilbourne, 2006).”
Antiviral agents active against influenza A viruses (2006, background): “; or second, through reassortment of an avian influenza virus with a human influenza virus, as occurred in 1957 with the 'Asian influenza' (H2N2) and, again, in 1968 with the 'Hong Kong influenza' (H3N2”
Single-Reaction Genomic Amplification Accelerates Sequencing and Vaccine Production for Classical and Swine Origin Human Influenza A Viruses (2009, background): “Antigenic shift variants emerge from animal reservoirs and cause pandemics that infect the majority of the population and have the potential to kill millions of people (12).”
