Bird Flu Outbreak in U.S. Dairy Farms

Livestock at several dairy farms in the U.S. have tested positive for bird flu, but officials say the risk to the public is low. The virus has caused illness in cows in Texas, Kansas, and Michigan, with presumptive positive results in New Mexico and Idaho. The disease has been found in dairy cattle for the first time. Goats on a Minnesota farm also contracted the virus. Past human infections typically result from exposure to infected poultry. The strain detected in Michigan is similar to that in Texas and Kansas, with no changes making it more transmissible to humans. The dairy supply is safe due to measures like diverting or destroying milk from affected livestock and pasteurization.
