Can <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/H5N1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>H5N1</span></a> be transmitted to humans? [Apparently, the answer is, "YES!"]</p><p>According to the the US Department of Agriculture, this is the first ever detection of this bird flu virus variant in dairy cattle.</p><p>by Jonathan Limehouse, February 6, 2025, updated February 7, 2025</p><p>"The variant of bird flu that killed a Louisiana resident has now been found in dairy cows.

It has also coursed through dairy farms in 16 states since last March, according to the USDA, reducing milk production. More than 60 <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/farmworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>farmworkers</span></a> on both dairy and poultry farms have been infected since then, all of whom recovered.</p><p>"But one Louisiana resident died last month after contracting bird flu from a backyard flock.
