It's flu season in the US. What to know
The U.S. winter virus season is in full force, and by one measure is the most intense in about 15 years. One indicator of flu activity is the percentage of doctor’s office visits driven by flu-like symptoms.MIKE STOBBE (AP News)

Will bird flu spark a human pandemic? Scientists say the risk is rising
H5N1 is adapting to new mammal hosts, raising the possibility of the virus spreading between humans.Kozlov, Max
Migratory waterfowl, like geese and ducks, with bird flu defecate on farms, says Osterholm. The wind picks up particles of infected feces, spreading the virus. “Today, I am certain that we are seeing clouds of dust with bird feces.”

My own commentary: And it's not just about the price of eggs. The strain of H5N1 that has been surging on poultry farms is far more dangerous than the strain infecting cattle. Mortality in humans is closer to 50%. If this strain evolves P2P transmission, the effects could be devastating. The public, scientists, epidemiologists, doctors and hospitals need timely information.
Withdrawal from the WHO only exacerbates the challenges of preventing and/or fighting major disease outbreaks, as the U.S. was providing a major chunk of that organization's funding. And withdrawal from the organization could impair communication and collaboration between U.S. and international scientists and health agencies.
Meanwhile, there actually is a vaccine already available for H5N1 that we know is effective for birds. However, it has not yet been confirmed effective for humans and, by the end of the year, there'll only be enough for a few million people, nowhere near enough for the >300 million people, just in the U.S. Seems unlikely that the vaccine research and production would increase with RFK Jr at the helm of HHS.
Great work from the "anti-censorship" and "free speech" president.

Bird flu will be the next pandemic unless health officials take 6 critical steps, experts say
The time for urgency, the experts say, is now.Carolyn Barber (Fortune)
A Louisiana patient is the first person in the US to die as a result of H5N1 infection. The Louisiana health department noted that the person who was infected was over the age of 65 and had underlying medical conditions, which made the person particularly vulnerable to severe disease.

![Without sustained human-to-human transmission or other dangerous changes to the virus, the risk to the general population remains low [at this time]. But, both the CDC and Harris emphasized that people who work with birds and other animals are at greater risk of infection and should take precautions.
According to data collected by the WHO, there have been 954 documented cases between 2003 and 2024. Of those, 464 were fatal, leading to a fatality rate of about 49 percent among documented cases.
