Known for several decades now, these viruses have seen their circulation particularly increased in recent years, and have been responsible for massive epizootics on several continents. In addition to the devastating effects they can cause in poultry and wildlife, HPAIVs are also capable of crossing the species barrier. Improving knowledge about these viruses and better control of their spread therefore has several objectives: to protect public health, to guarantee food safety, to preserve biodiversity and the economy of the poultry industry.

The various forms of the disease, and in particular the increased frequency of attenuated forms, linked to an evolution of CSF virus strains towards a reduction in their virulence, delay clinical diagnosis. Thus, a long period may elapse before an outbreak is detected, allowing the virus to circulate longer, with the risk of spreading to distant geographical areas.
