Scientists are increasingly concerned about the potential for a bird flu pandemic, with recent spread patterns suggesting a looming threat. Interviews with leading disease experts reveal that gaps in surveillance could leave us unprepared for a new outbreak. Since 2020, a new subtype of H5N1 avian flu has been tracked in migratory birds, now affecting 129 dairy herds across 12 U.S. states. This development raises concerns about the virus's potential to become transmissible between humans, with infections already found in various mammals, including alpacas and house cats. In Michigan, dairy farmers are pushing back against stringent measures to curb the spread, fearing financial repercussions reminiscent of the COVID-19 era.
