Poultry to Cattle to Humans: Bird Flu Spread Raises Concerns among Government and States

Reported 4 months ago

The spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza from poultry to cattle, and recently to humans, has sparked worry among federal and state authorities in the US. With outbreaks affecting dairy farms and a few cases in farmworkers, officials are closely monitoring the situation but believe the risk to the public is currently low. Government agencies are collaborating to combat the virus, conducting tests on cattle and implementing biosecurity measures. Despite concerns, efforts aim to contain the spread and mitigate economic impacts on farmers.
