The risk assessment model simulates human exposure and potential illness from consumption of H5 and H7 HPAI strains that can make humans ill and lead to death. Exposure from HPAIV is modeled separately for poultry meat and for shell eggs. Each model consists of three modules representing production, processing, and consumer preparation.
