  • H5N1 Bird Flu Alert: Low Risk for Public, Moderate Concern for Poultry and Dairy Workers in Ongoing Outbreak
    2025/07/25
    Good afternoon. This is the H5N1 Bird Flu Briefing: Public Health Alert. I am speaking on behalf of national and state health authorities to provide you with the latest public health update, outline what today’s “Low” to “Moderate” alert level means for the community, and offer practical guidance to protect your health and the safety of those around you.

    Today, the United States continues to monitor a multi-state outbreak of H5N1 bird flu, also known as highly pathogenic avian influenza. As of July 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and U.S. Department of Agriculture report that this virus remains *widespread among wild birds* and has caused ongoing outbreaks in commercial poultry, backyard flocks, and more recently, dairy cows. According to CDC, a total of 70 confirmed or probable human cases have been reported in this country, nearly all among individuals with direct, unprotected exposure to sick birds or infected animals. *No ongoing human-to-human transmission* has been identified. For the general public, the current alert level remains **Low Risk**; those working in or living near affected poultry or dairy operations face a **Moderate to High Risk** from occupational exposure.

    You should know the symptoms of H5N1 infection. According to the CDC, symptoms may include fever, cough, sore throat, muscle aches, headache, fatigue, shortness of breath, or eye redness. Gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea and diarrhea may also occur. If you experience **shortness of breath, chest pain, persistent high fever, confusion, or sudden difficulty seeing or speaking, seek medical attention immediately**. Symptoms like mild cough or sore throat can be monitored at home if you have *no known risk factors or recent exposure to sick birds or animals*. Contact your healthcare provider if symptoms worsen or you are concerned about your exposure history.

    For individuals working with poultry, dairy cattle, or in other high-risk settings:
    - Always wear recommended personal protective equipment including gloves, N95 respirators, goggles or face shields, and disposable gowns when in contact with sick or dead animals.
    - Practice diligent hand hygiene before and after animal handling. Clean and disinfect all equipment and vehicles.
    - Report any ill animals to animal health authorities immediately and avoid direct contact with secretions or carcasses.
    - If you develop symptoms compatible with influenza within 10 days of possible exposure, refrain from going to work and notify your supervisor, occupational health, or public health authorities right away.

    Guidelines for the general public, in order of priority:
    - *Do not touch sick or dead birds or animals*. If contact is necessary, use gloves and a mask. Wash hands thoroughly.
    - Avoid visiting live animal markets or farms with ongoing outbreaks.
    - Only consume properly cooked poultry, eggs, and dairy products.
    - Ensure household pets do not interact with wild birds or animal carcasses.
    - Stay informed by following CDC, USDA, or local health department announcements. Get your annual influenza vaccination to reduce confusion with bird flu symptoms.

    For more information or to report symptoms after possible exposure, contact your local health department, healthcare provider, or visit the CDC website. In a medical emergency, dial 911.

  • H5N1 Bird Flu Alert: 70 Cases Confirmed in US, CDC Warns Public of Low but Present Health Risk
    2025/07/23
    This is the H5N1 Bird Flu Briefing: Public Health Alert.

    Thank you for joining us. The purpose of this briefing is to provide the public with vital information about the current status of H5N1 avian influenza, commonly known as bird flu, in the United States, outline key health recommendations, and clarify what actions should be taken to protect yourself and your community.

    As of today, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the U.S. Department of Agriculture continue to monitor H5N1 outbreaks in birds, dairy cattle, and other animals. Since early 2024, there have been 70 confirmed human cases in the United States, primarily among individuals with direct contact with sick animals, particularly dairy cows and poultry. There has been one reported death in the U.S. and sporadic cases in other countries. Importantly, there is currently no evidence of sustained person-to-person transmission. According to the CDC, the risk to the general population remains low, but exposure risk is higher for individuals working directly with infected or potentially infected animals.

    The current alert level is "vigilant monitoring." This matters because while everyday risk is low, continued vigilance and fast action help prevent further spread and protect vulnerable populations and food supplies.

    It is crucial to recognize the symptoms of H5N1. Symptoms that require immediate medical attention include high fever, shortness of breath, chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe weakness, or signs of dehydration. Conjunctivitis or pink eye has also been documented in some cases. Monitor mild symptoms at home such as minor cough, sore throat, or low-grade fever, but if these worsen or are accompanied by the severe symptoms described, seek prompt medical care.

    For those working with poultry, dairy cattle, or in processing facilities, strict containment protocols apply. Wear recommended personal protective equipment such as gloves, masks, and eye protection. Follow all workplace hygiene procedures. Report any signs of illness in yourself or animals promptly to your supervisor and health officials. Do not handle sick or dead animals without protection. Dispose of contaminated materials in accordance with official guidelines. If exposed, self-monitor for symptoms for at least 10 days and follow the instructions of your workplace health authority.

    Guidelines for the general public, in order of priority, are as follows:
    - Do not consume raw or unpasteurized milk, eggs, or poultry products.
    - Avoid contact with sick or dead wild birds, poultry, or mammals.
    - Wash hands frequently with soap and water, especially if touching objects or surfaces exposed to birds or cattle.
    - Report sick or dead birds to local authorities—do not touch or move them yourself.
    - Get your seasonal flu shot; while it does not protect against H5N1, it can help reduce confusion with other illnesses.
    - If you have had close contact with potentially infected animals—or you work in a high-risk setting—closely monitor your health and notify your healthcare provider about your exposure.

    For further information and the latest updates, visit the CDC and USDA websites, or contact your local health department. In medical emergencies, call 911.

  • H5N1 Bird Flu Alert: Essential Precautions and Symptoms to Watch for Amid Ongoing Global Outbreak in 2025
    2025/07/21
    Good afternoon. This is the H5N1 Bird Flu Briefing: Public Health Alert, brought to you by Quiet Please.

    The purpose of this briefing is to provide you with the most up-to-date and actionable information about the ongoing H5N1 avian influenza outbreak. As of July 2025, H5N1, commonly known as bird flu, continues to affect poultry, dairy cattle, and wildlife across the United States, Canada, and globally. Human cases remain rare but have been documented, particularly among people who work closely with birds or livestock. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention assess the current public health risk to the general public as low; however, the risk for individuals with occupational or recreational exposure to infected animals is higher.

    Understanding the symptoms and seeking prompt medical care can make a significant difference. Most human infections remain mild, but some can become severe. Symptoms that require immediate medical attention include:
    - Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath.
    - Persistent high fever unresponsive to medication.
    - Severe cough with chest pain.
    - Altered mental state such as confusion or seizures.
    - Signs of organ failure such as significant fatigue, yellowing of the skin, or decreased urine output.

    Symptoms that can usually be monitored at home, unless they worsen, include:
    - Runny nose or sore throat.
    - Mild cough or headache.
    - Muscle aches and fatigue.
    - Occasional diarrhea or conjunctivitis.

    If you have had close contact with poultry, wild birds, or livestock within the past week and develop these symptoms, especially if you have fever and a cough, please contact your healthcare provider for guidance.

    For those who work with poultry, dairy cows, or in high-risk environments, strict containment protocols are critical. Always use appropriate personal protective equipment including gloves, masks, and eye protection when handling birds, raw milk, or livestock. Ensure rigorous hand hygiene after all contact. Avoid consuming unpasteurized dairy products and report any sudden bird or animal deaths to local authorities. If you are exposed to sick animals or develop symptoms, stay home, limit contact with others, and inform your supervisor and public health authorities immediately.

    For the general public, here are guidelines sorted by priority:
    - Do not handle sick or dead birds or wild animals.
    - Wash your hands frequently with soap and water, especially after being outdoors or handling food.
    - Avoid unpasteurized milk products.
    - If you develop flu-like symptoms after possible exposure, seek medical advice promptly.
    - Keep pets away from wild birds or potentially infected animals.
    - Support and cooperate with biosecurity measures at local farms or poultry businesses.

    Current antivirals may be less effective in severe cases, underscoring the importance of prevention, especially for those at higher risk such as farmers and agricultural workers, as reported by St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

    For more information, resources, or to report an illness or animal exposure, please visit the official websites of the CDC, your state health department, or the USDA. In case of emergency, contact your local emergency health services immediately.
