California has identified three new outbreaks of H5N1 bird flu in dairy herds, elevating the total number of infected farms to six.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention stated that while other novel flu cases have been detected, this is the first H5 case in the national flu surveillance.
Health officials emphasize that the risk of H5N1 remains low for the general public, ensuring that pasteurized milk and dairy products remain safe.
The newly reported herds were tested due to elevated risks from connections with initially affected farms, underscoring the effectiveness of surveillance measures.
