The resurgence of West Nile Virus (WNV) in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region presents significant public health challenges. This study an in-depth phylogenetic analysis WNV sequences collected from various MENA countries, including Israel, Iran, Iraq, focusing on genetic variations lineage distribution. dominant Lineage 1a, found predominantly Israel Tunisia, contrasts with emerging 2 strains Iran which show higher divergence. highlights potential influences viral replication,...

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A/H5N1 viruses threaten animal and human health worldwide. The first documented cases in the Middle East were reported 2005; however, despite extensive phylogenetic studies, there is limited information on transmission dynamics of virus within this region. We analyzed HA NA gene sequences from various hosts to address gap understand virus’s spread evolution East. hypothesized that H5N1 exhibits host-specific or geographically influenced clade...
