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…
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…
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.
2. Have these assays detected increases this Spring? Yes. @WastewaterSCAN looked at 54 wastewater plants. Data, for example, Dallas is below. H5 started spiking in mid-April.
3. Still unanswered questions? A ton. Animal vs. human? How do we differentiate quickly? This study is watersheds, what about lower-resolution sampling (sewer) to understand spread? What about reporting requirements for select agents (like H5)? What are the genomic sequences?
Preparing means working towards answers *now* (rather than falling reactive) *if* this jumps to human-to-human transmission. H5N1 is the perfect case study for quickly translating the massive wastewater system we built during Covid-19 to other threats. Time to get at it.

America’s dairy cows will be tested for bird flu more closely, after the FDA reported finding fragments of the virus in pasteurized grocery store milk. Dr. @celinegounder breaks down what the next steps are — and whether Americans should be worried about infections.
This is an extraordinary amount of work, done in the week since @USDA posted raw sequence data without metadata from the dairy cow outbreaks of #H5N1 #birdflu. 🧵

The prevalence and diversity of today's viruses aren't natural phenomena. Viruses are unnaturally abundant and therefore unnaturally mutated due to the unnatural practices of modern life. Remember this next time someone suggests "trusting nature" instead of getting vaccinated.
@CanHealthwatch All countries should be testing their dairy cows. The American infection rate Bovine Mastitis is 75%, Canada btwn 16-26% (2013). When cow contracts #H5N1 their immune reaction allows S. aureus to proliferate. That's what is causing their symptoms. #H5N1 is removed via their milk.
Amid rising H5N1 cases in cattle, why isn't UK testing cows? Because they might find the infection @CanHealthwatch @organicbotanic @malolisica m.economictimes.com/news/internati…
Emergency department visits by First Nations patients were more likely to end with them leaving without being seen or against medical advice than those by non–First Nations patients, disproportionately disrupting and delaying care. ➡️ cmaj.ca/lookup/doi/10.…
