Mexico - Man dies while infected with HPAI (H5N2) in April 2024
- No subsequent infections detected

SUMMARY - The 59-year old man from the country of Mexico who was
believed to have died from H5N2 (a type of HPAI, Highly
Pathogenic Avian Influenza) has had his cause of death changed
as a result of a medical investigation conducted by Mexican
authorities. Although the man was infected with H5N2, a panel of
medical experts have concluded that the man died from other
co-morbidities that he was already suffering from. It is
important to note that the World Health Organization (WHO) did
not arrive at this conclusion but is relying upon the
investigation led by the Mexican government.
