Outbreak of Bird Flu in Dairy Cows in the U.S.

An outbreak of bird flu is affecting dairy cows in the U.S., with concerns about potential human infections. The virus has spread from birds to cattle and one person has been infected after close contact with cows. Scientists are monitoring the situation closely for any mutations that could increase human transmission. The risk to the public is currently considered low, and the commercial milk supply is not at risk as products are pasteurized.
