Über diesen Titel
[Host, energetic news tone] Welcome to Bird Flu Update: US H5N1 News Now, your three-minute briefing on the latest developments. I'm your host.
First, human cases: The CDC reports a national total of 71 confirmed H5N1 cases since 2024, with 41 linked to dairy herds, 24 to poultry farms and culling, three to other animal exposure, and three unknown. No new human cases announced this week, but Louisiana noted the first US H5N1 death earlier. CDC's latest influenza surveillance for week 1, ending January 10, shows flu positivity dropping to 18.6% nationwide, mostly influenza A, with no specific H5N1 uptick in humans.
In animals, USDA APHIS confirms recent detections: wild birds in Maryland's Dorchester County on January 6, Colorado's Weld County on January 9, and Washington's Whatcom County on January 7. Mammals include a case in Florida's St. Johns County on December 16. Poultry hits hard: a Minnesota turkey farm devastated, per CIDRAP, amid 67 US flocks confirmed in the past 30 days, including 18 commercial. Dairy ongoing in California, where CDFA says four herds remain quarantined as of late December, down from peaks like 13 in October, with one re-quarantined premises. Kansas faces its worst outbreak, per UNMC reports.
CDC and USDA updates this week: No major new guidance changes, but CDC notes declining flu trends across all HHS regions, Region 2 highest at 22.9%. USDA continues surveillance; California lifted its poultry and dairy exhibition ban December 19. FDA, USDA, and CDC investigations persist on dairy cattle impacts.
Research note: GISAID highlights ongoing HPAI spread in birds and cows, with 16,657 wild bird detections nationwide per All About Birds, updated January 21.
What does this mean for you? Risk to the public stays low—no sustained human-to-human spread. Avoid sick birds or cows, cook poultry and eggs thoroughly, and pasteurize milk. CDC urges flu shots; 90% of pediatric flu deaths this season hit unvaccinated kids.
Compared to prior weeks: Human cases stable at 71, no surge. Animal detections steady but down in California quarantines from 13 to four. Flu positivity fell from prior highs, signaling containment progress versus holiday peaks.
Thanks for tuning in—stay safe and come back next week for more. This has been a Quiet Please production. For me, check out Quiet Please Dot A I.
