California officials have declared a state of emergency as H5N1 bird flu spreads among dairy cows, posing risks to both livestock and human health.
With H5N1 confirmed in 866 herds across 16 states and sporadic illnesses affecting over 60 individuals, farmworkers are particularly vulnerable.
California houses three-quarters of the infected herds, prompting a shift from local containment to statewide monitoring as the state ramps up its response.
