[Upbeat news intro music fades in]
Host: Welcome to Bird Flu Update: US H5N1 News Now, your three-minute briefing on the latest developments. I'm your host.
Since 2024, the CDC reports 71 confirmed human H5N1 cases nationwide, with 41 linked to dairy herds, 24 to poultry farms, three to other animals, and three unknown. The most recent was a poultry worker in Louisiana, marking the US's first H5N1 death. No new human cases this week, per CDC's FluView for week one ending January 10, 2026. CDC confirms no person-to-person spread.
In animals, H5N1 persists in dairy cows and wild birds. California's CDFA confirmed two new dairy cases in the last 30 days as of early 2026, with 766 total infected dairies statewide since detection—630 now recovered and released, but under monthly surveillance. Wisconsin's DATCP noted ongoing detections on January 21, 2026, with symptoms like reduced milk in herds. USDA's APHIS logged wild bird detections updated January 21, emphasizing nationwide spread since 2022. Poultry bans continue in high-risk areas like California fairs.
Past week updates: CDC streamlined reporting July 7, 2025, shifting animal data to USDA and human surveillance to monthly FluView. No new guidance changes; antivirals treat mild human cases effectively. Wisconsin DATCP highlighted national milk testing January 7.
Research note: A January 21 New York Times report cites scientists' rising concerns over H5N1 mutations in US farms and global variants, urging vigilance without panic.
For you: Risk remains low for the public—avoid raw milk, per CDC warnings on germs like E. coli. Farm workers: Use PPE, report symptoms. Cook poultry and eggs thoroughly; pasteurization kills the virus. No evidence of food supply threat.
Compared to prior weeks: FluView shows influenza positivity dropped to 18.6% in week one from 24.7% in week 53, with zero new H5 detections versus steady animal cases. Human total stable at 71; dairy outbreaks slowed in California from 14-35 monthly peaks earlier to two recently.
Stay informed, stay safe.
