Although oseltamivir resistance during the treatment of influenza A (H5N1) virus infection has been reported, 1 no genetic evidence of resistance to oseltamivir was observed in our patient.

According to the CDC, there has been a decline in animal infections and no reports of human cases since February.

Influenza A(H5N1) virus has been identified in dairy herds and in the commercial milk supply. In this report, inactivation of the virus in milk by heating is studied.

Evidence of bird flu infections in horses signals a new frontier in viral spillover risks, demanding urgent action to monitor and mitigate cross-species transmission.

Researchers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention randomly tested 150 veterinarians for H5N1, or bird flu, antibodies, which would indicate if they had a recent infection.

Experts warn about the possibility of a new pandemic in 2025 as the H5N1 bird flu virus spreads across all 50 states, impacting US dairy farms and leading to human infections. Here's what to know.

The California Department of Food and Agriculture said Thursday that H5N1 bird flu is suspected to have infected three dairy herds in the state.

Confirming the dangers of drinking raw cow's milk when the H5N1 avian flu virus is circulating in U.S. dairy herds, researchers found that mice fed the milk quickly got ill.
