NEW—The cow flu virus that has spread through US dairy herds may have taken a "dangerous" step towards being able to infect humans through respiratory infections, scientists have warned.
Now detailed analysis by scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison shows ➡️viral samples taken from cows were able to attach to receptors found on cells in the human respiratory tract.
(In contrast, the version of H5N1 found in birds is unable to do that, suggesting the bovine virus has mutated). https://t.co/4HanWCINoJ

The abstract gives a clear summary of all their findings in this marvelous preprint. They conclude that BA 4/5 is not only more infectious/immune evasive compared to BA 2, it is also more lethal than BA 2 was. This should put the entire planet on red alert 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
