Dr. Tomás Aragón emphasized the need for reassurance amid concerns over potential bird flu exposure, stating, "Based on the information and data we have, we don't think the child was infectious." He pointed out that there has been no human-to-human transmission documented for over 15 years, indicating the rarity of such incidents and addressing the public's anxiety about transmission risks.
State public health officials are taking precautions by notifying caregivers and families from the child's daycare, stating, "Although human-to-human spread of bird flu is very rare, we are offering preventive treatment and testing out of an abundance of caution," thus ensuring that all measures are taken to prevent any potential risk.
