A Michigan dairy worker has been diagnosed with bird flu, the second case in US dairy cows. The worker had mild eye symptoms and recovered. Officials stress the low public health risk.
The CDC warns of additional human cases due to the high virus levels in raw milk from infected cows. USDA requires testing dairy cows before interstate shipment to limit spread.
Experts emphasize the need for wide testing among farm workers exposed to infected cows and their milk. Since 2020, bird flu has spread to various animal species worldwide.
The unexpected detection of the bird flu virus in US livestock raises concerns and questions regarding transmission and spread among animals and potential human cases.
