I was grateful to be part of this conversation with @JenniferNuzzo (@pandemiccenter) on Friday. Open dialogue about what is known and not known - and where we need to do more - is essential for emerging public health threats.

H5N1 in dairy cows: 4 more cats have tested positive for H5N1 in New Mexico & Ohio in connection with a growing outbreak in dairy cows in the United States. All of them died, according to the state’s Agriculture Depart. This increases the total number of cats to 7.

Another great (but frustrating) H5N1 piece from @LaurenPelley at @CBCNews. In the US, H5N1 spilled over from birds into cows months ago. Importing infected American cows is not the only route that H5N1 could take to get into cattle herds here. But to find it, we need to look.
Here’s what Canada is doing (and not doing) to watch for #H5N1 amid an explosive outbreak among U.S. dairy cattle — and why Canadian scientists warn we’re already way behind this virus without active surveillance. New from me: cbc.ca/news/health/bi…
I seriously hope we never find ourselves with a #H5N1 #pandemic in humans. But I will say this: if it ever comes to pass, & people in #MedTwitter or #publichealth say to #WearAMask or #Getvaccinated, please pay attention & do it. It would be a WHOLE different level, folks.

Interesting #H5N1 preprint on wastewater just dropped. medrxiv.org/content/10.110… Three take-homes: 1. Can H5 be detected in wastewater? Yes, one company (@Verily) now has an assay. It's 100% specific. Huge first step.

COVID booster linked to 25% lower odds of long COVID People who received the COVID-19 booster vaccine had 25% lower odds of having long COVID than their unvaccinated counterparts. cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/covid…
Timely publication.. 1. Sequences of Dairy cattle and Cats are very similar 2. Drinking raw milk implicated Small subset tested/sequenced I'd not rule out direct wild bird exposure (or other route) yet
Lot of detail on the illnesses seen in cattle, cats, linked to #H5N1 #birdflu infection in this just posted article in @CDCgov's journal, Emerging Infectious Diseases. wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30…
🚨Hot off the Press. As suspected more than a month ago: H5 was detected at three [wastewater] plants located in a state with confirmed outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza, H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b, in dairy cattle, suggesting a large fraction of Influenza A virus inputs…
Remember, the risk for human transmission is currently about exposure. This potentially increases risk, but need to determine how much of this is killed vs live virus and sequence these fragments soon.
Milk contains several virus-stabilizing compounds which may indicate the stability of influenza in milk even after pasteurization. However, you need to know that the presence of genetic material is not the same as the presence of the virus. popsci.com/health/bird-fl…
