Abstract
⺠A poultry vaccine against highly pathogenic H5N1 influenza virus was developed. ⺠The vaccine contains the neuraminidase from type B human influenza virus. ⺠The vaccine allows differentiation between vaccinated and infected animals (DIVA). ⺠The vaccine can be used preventively against H5 influenza of any N subtype. ⺠Vaccination of poultry will limit exposure of humans to H5N1.
