After a hurricane, it’s crucial to shelter in place until officials give the all-clear. The storm may have passed, but hazards like flooding, downed power lines, and debris remain. Stay indoors, stay informed, and avoid unnecessary risks.
#Milton
CDC has confirmed a third human case of H5 bird flu in California. Like the two cases in that state confirmed last week, the person reported occupational exposure to infected dairy cows. None of the three cases has been hospitalized. The identification of H5 in people with exposure to infected animals is not unexpected and does not change CDC's risk assessment for the general public, which continues to be low.
