Bird Flu in Dairy Cattle

It’s been confirmed that airborne transmission is what is causing the cows to get sick, and 10% are now dying or not recovering & being culled.

Virus has been found in 1/5 of milk on the shelves (potentially killed by pasteurization but it’s a rather hardy virus)

There are 86 farms with confirmed infections and it’s been found in field mice as well as dozens of mammals.

Vaccine production for humans is very limited (may be enough for ~1 in 4 people within 6 months)

Just sharing info for us high-contact peoples… do with it what you will.
