California declares state of emergency over H5N1 bird flu outbreak

dailymail.co.uk — December 19, 2024 at 12:02 AM UTC

California has declared a state of emergency due to an outbreak of H5N1 bird flu, which has infected dairy workers after spreading among cattle. This follows the first severe human case reported in Louisiana. The emergency declaration allows California to access resources for testing and protective equipment. Since late August, H5N1 has been detected in 645 dairy herds, with nearly half of those cases reported in the last month. While the CDC states the risk to the public remains low, experts are concerned about the virus evolving if it spreads unchecked. California has also recalled raw milk linked to bird flu contamination.
