"We do expect that we will have a total of just over 10 million doses, filled and finished by the end of the first quarter of calendar year 2025," said David Boucher, director of infectious disease preparedness and response at the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response.
"This year, a total of 16 people in the US have been infected with bird flu. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed the latest two cases, both in California, Thursday evening."
"The individuals are farm workers who had contact with infected dairy cows at two different facilities in Central Valley, the epicenter of the state's cattle outbreak. Both had mild symptoms, including eye redness, and are being treated with antiviral medication."
"Nirav Shah, the CDC's principal deputy director, said the new cases do not change the agency's risk assessment for the general public, which continues to be low."
