An outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza in cattle herds across nine states in the U.S. has raised worries among federal and state agencies, with three dairy farmworkers now diagnosed with the virus. While public health officials and veterinarians believe the risk to the public remains low, they are closely monitoring poultry and dairy farms for changes. The response involves various government agencies and organizations, aiming to curb the virus' spread and economic impact on farmers. Additional testing measures and biosecurity efforts are being implemented to prevent further transmission from infected cattle to poultry flocks and humans.
