Avian influenza: Situation at present
This communication, which follows and amplifies previous papers by the author, published by the Real Academia Nacional de Farmacia, as indicated on its web page (www.ranf.com), is mainly concerned with the following issues: a) The role of the influenza viral glycoprotein named hemagglutinin (HA) in...
