H5N1 virus primarily infects birds and is known to cause severe illness and death in them. It can also infect a range of animals, including pigs, cats, and ferrets, but it does not typically cause serious illness in these animals. However, it can be transmitted between pigs, and there have been rare cases of H5N1 transmission from animals to humans, with a high mortality rate. It does not spread easily from human to human.
