California Becomes 14th State to Detect Bird Flu Virus in Dairy Cows ...Middle East

A warning sign is placed at a dairy farm in Martin, Michigan, in June. REUTERS/Tom Polansek Cows at three dairy farms in California, the top U.S. milk-producing state, tested positive for bird flu, the state’s agriculture department said on Friday. The infections expand a U.S. outbreak of the H5N1 virus in dairy cattle to a 14th state. More than 190 herds have been infected nationally since March, along with 13 dairy and poultry farm workers, according to federal data. The virus’s jump to cows from birds has heightened concerns it could adapt to spread among humans. Federal officials say bird flu is a low risk for the general public and pasteurization inactivates the virus in milk.
