Author Topic: USA, Texas - Man becomes infected with HPAI through cattle; Milk supply safe.  (Read 859 times)

SUMMARY - In the country of the United States, the Centers of Disease Control (CDC) is reporting that a man has become infected with HPAI (Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, also known as "bird flu") after having been exposed to infected cattle in the state of Texas. The man is currently only suffering minor symptoms. Government officials have said that the milk supply is safe as there are laws preventing sick cows from being milked and that the pasteurization process would kill the virus.

I do not like how fast this is spreading out of control. Good to hear for now no threat to milk supply, however if this gets out of control and the number of sick cows gets high I could see issues down the line.
