Bird Flu: How milk can spread the H5N1 Avian influenza
bird flu, is spreading rapidly through milk on US dairy farms. Since March, the H5N1 virus has infected over 850 cattle herds across 16 states, and at least 60 people, mostly farmworkers. California is the current outbreak epicenter. How the virus spreads Scientists initially suspected airborne transmission, but data points to milk as the primary culprit. The H5N1 virus reproduces rapidly in the udders of infected cows, leading to high pathogen levels in milk. Infected milk droplets can splash into workers’ faces, contaminate equipment, and spread the virus to other cows. While pasteurization neutralizes the virus, traces have been found in retail samples of raw milk in California, raising public health concerns.
