H5N1 is spreading in U.S. cattle herds and we may be closer to human transmission than anyone’s saying. Testing is limited. Surveillance is weak. And a single mutation could make this virus more dangerous to humans.

WHN’s latest update breaks down what’s happening and what still isn’t being done.

Text reads:
"H5N1 is continuing to spread worldwide in poultry and among cattle herds in the United States.
Given the mounting health and economic risks, urgent action is needed to contain the spread."

Text reads:
"In 2024, outbreaks of H5N1 avian influenza were reported across U.S. farms, with evidence of human infections linked to cattle."
"In early April, a child in Mexico died from H5N1, following similar deaths in Canada and the U.S. last year. All three cases involved the same strain: D1.1 (2.3.4.4b) [1,2]."White background, same header.
Text reads:
"Testing has been reduced or halted in many places."
"Non-lactating cows (like dry cows and heifers) are excluded from federal testing rules. Even for lactating cows crossing state lines, only a sample (max 30) is tested — meaning widespread outbreaks can be missed."
"Meanwhile, test results aren’t even shared with public health agencies."White background, WHN branding on dark header.
Text reads:
"This D1.1 strain may be closer to human adaptation than previously thought."
"New structural analysis shows just one mutation (glutamine to leucine) could allow the virus to bind to human receptors."
"Despite this, little follow-up has been done on infections in livestock or farm workers."

Wouldn't it be just awful if US did not have a vaccine ready for #BirdFlu #H5N1 because Trump let RFK halt #MRNA studies, and then some weak corpulent orange octogenarian was transported back to Walter Reed where they couldn't save him.

What is it about vaccines and Republicans?

As top US health officials turn against some mRNA vaccines, experts fear for the country’s preparedness for the next pandemic and worry that other vaccines will be targeted next.

In addition to claiming the Covid vaccines are deadly, Kennedy has “also said no vaccine is beneficial”

I think it's worth noting that the current situation re: H5N1 in livestock in Canada seems fairly good: currently six active sites, down from eighty some-odd back in March.

And no fucking way has CFIA been unreasonable on this.

“The strain of bird flu that infected a Michigan dairy farmworker is capable of airborne transmission, amping up concerns about its potential to spark a new pandemic, according to a research letter published in June.”
