Discussed in this episode:

  • H3N2 influenza has picked up a mutation (dubbed “subclade K”) that’s raising concerns for two reasons: 1) it accounts for a growing share of influenza samples that get genetically-sequenced, implying it has some growth advantage, and 2) the mutations emerged after the makeup of this year’s flu vaccine was approved and entered production.
  • A resident of Washington State has died from the first-recorded human infection with H5N5 avian influenza.
