A Texas dairy worker has tested positive for the avian flu, marking the first identified human case of an illness in the U.S. that has sickened cattle across several states over the past few weeks.

The infection, only the second human case of H5N1 ever recorded in the country, is worrying public health experts who for decades have cautioned that avian flu could pose a serious threat.


The case is the only one state and federal officials have identified, and there is no evidence that it is being spread among humans. The illness is mild and the worker is expected to recover, said two people familiar with the matter, who were granted anonymity because the information has not yet been made public. While there have been confirmed avian flu fatalities in other parts of the world, the U.S. has only ever recorded a handful of mild cases, according to the CDC.

The new human case follows recent cow infections in Texas, Idaho, Michigan and New Mexico that have raised alarm among public health experts who worry the virus’ spread to mammals could make it easier for the virus to infect humans.

“Every single time is a little bit of Russian roulette,” said veteran public health expert Ashish Jha, who led the Biden administration’s Covid-19 response. “You play that game long enough and one of these times it will become fit to spread among humans.”

The CDC, FDA and U.S. Department of Agriculture said the virus was found in a Michigan dairy herd that had recently received cows from herds in Texas. The USDA’s National Veterinary Services Laboratories said the Michigan strain is very similar to the cow infections in Texas and Kansas, which appear to have come from wild birds.

“Initial testing has not found changes to the virus that would make it more transmissible to humans,” the CDC, FDA and USDA said in a press release. “While cases among humans in direct contact with infected animals are possible, this indicates that the current risk to the public remains low.”


Still, senior White House officials are closely monitoring the evolving situation, with the Office of Pandemic Preparedness receiving regular updates from HHS and USDA. Jeff Zients, President Joe Biden’s chief of staff, was briefed last week, said one person familiar with the matter, granted anonymity to discuss internal conversations.

There is also concern about potential cow-to-cow spread in Idaho. State veterinarian Scott Leibsle told POLITICO that cows from an Idaho dairy tested positive for avian influenza a few weeks after a shipment of Texas cattle arrived in early March from a facility with avian influenza cases.

“The coincidence of timing is just too coincidental to say well, the shipment of cattle came up from an affected facility in Texas and then two weeks later we saw it in some other cattle,” Leibsle said. “That just doesn’t make any sense.”

The FDA said it is not aware of milk or food products from symptomatic cows entering interstate commerce. The three government agencies said there is “no concern about the safety of the commercial milk supply” because of pasteurization — which heats milk to a temperature that would kill the virus.

But Rick Bright, who led the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority and raised alarm about the Trump administration’s early response to the Covid-19 pandemic, said he is not comforted by those assurances.

“They would have to do a lot of testing before I would drink milk from one of these farms at this point,” Bright said.

Caitlin Rivers, an epidemiologist at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, said it will be crucial to get a better understanding whether the virus is changing in a way that makes it more adaptable to spread among humans.

“I don’t necessarily suspect that to be the case because I don’t think cows are particularly like humans in that way,” said Rivers, who was a founding associate director of the CDC’s Center for Forecasting and Outbreak Analytics. “But any time the epidemiology of a virus changes it makes me listen more closely.”

Bright cautioned that highly pathogenic avian influenza “does not always translate to the same level of disease” in people and mammals as birds, though he and other experts warn the potential impact is far from certain.

The increasing prevalence of avian influenza in cows means that human surveillance in farmworkers and dairy workers should be bolstered, according to Association of Public Health Laboratories CEO Scott Becker.

“The bigger picture is that this virus is not cooling off,” said Jennifer Nuzzo, director of the Pandemic Center at the Brown University School of Public Health. “We’ve been worrying about this virus for 20 years, more than 20 years. And in the last year, it has really been remarkable in how far across the globe it has been spreading, and how many species it’s been affecting.”

Stacey Schultz-Cherry, an expert in animal influenza at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, said the infections in cows are the first time avian influenza has been found in the animal.

“There does seem to be more spillover into these different animal species that we’ve never really thought about before, especially with avian influenza viruses,” Schultz-Cherry said.

CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story, relying on a mistaken press release from the USDA, misidentified a state where cows were infected.

Like motherfucker even if you're a great big Trump fan you have to be seeing him giving thumbs-ups at weddings at his Florida beach mansion and doing his freestyle comedy fascism routine in front of crowds in rally after rally, does this look like someone who is "going through hell" to you??

Fucker is puttering around in a golf cart being fawned over from dawn to dusk and being made custom omelets by his personal poolside servants and even in your fantasy island hugbox there is no way for you to not be aware of that
