#H5N1#BirdFlu#BREAKING update
We now have multiple cases of BirdFlu with no obvious animal source. The Californian toddler is a concern.
California leads the US for animal & human H5N1 levels.
⚠️>30% of the 1,100 dairy herds infected.
⚠️60+ poultry farms infected.
⚠️27 human cases since October (all mild, all B3.13 from dairy cows).
⚠️Wastewater levels are spiking.👇👇
⚠️California is on the wild bird flyways.
We need to urgently know whether the Californian toddler has genotype B3.13 (cattle) or D1 (Birds).
The former will suggest the retail milk supply in California is unsafe.
The latter will suggest bird exposure.
Did this toddler’s virus fly in (birds), drive in (milk), or is it in the air?
🤷♂️🤷♂️

H5N1 - Serious Pandemic Threat
It’s in the New York Times now
"The pathogen poses a serious pandemic threat and has been detected in over 500 dairy herds in 15 states
And yet, the U.S. response appears inadequate and slow."

Avian influenza H5n1 on five (!!) fur farms in Finland. Apparently no control measures except “ people need to be carefull”. Astounding. We do not learn from the past. GUESS WHAT: passaging wildly may generate mammalian adapted h5n1. Not good…. https://t.co/AhFCo60ZTt
