The Center for Veterinary Biologics (CVB) recently added CVB Notice 24-06: Availability of Genetic Sequence and Isolate to its website. This Notice is to furnish interested parties with the genomic sequence from the recent H5 clade 2.3.4.4b highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus.

This Notice also informs interested parties that the isolate is available for purchase from the National Veterinary Services Laboratories (NVSL) only to entities approved and registered for HPAI virus with the Federal Select Agent Program (FSAP). This Notice was developed in response to the recent emergent issue in dairy cattle.
