Kai KupferschmidtOne year after we first learnt of cows infected with <a href="https://mas.to/tags/H5N1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#H5N1</a> we still don’t know how the virus jumped into U.S. cattle - or why it keeps doing so “I think we have really under-estimated this pathogen and haven’t made the strides that we needed to in a year”, Seema Lakdawala told me.Story is here: <a href="https://www.science.org/content/article/mysteries-surrounding-cow-flu-have-scientists-concerned-about-future-outbreaks" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.science.org/content/article/mysteries-surrounding-cow-flu-have-scientists-concerned-about-future-outbreaks</a>

Helen BranswellI missed this y'day about the new report from Minnesota of an <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/H5N1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#H5N1</a> <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/birdflu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdflu</a> infected herd: The herd in question was previously infected. As such it's not going to be counted again. Just guessing, but I'd wonder if the bulk milk testing showed they never managed to clear the earlier infection.

Helen Branswell<a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/USDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#USDA</a> confirmed another California dairy herd has been infected with <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/H5N1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#H5N1</a> <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/birdflu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdflu</a>. That brings CA's total to 756. The CA Dept of Ag. says 422 of those herds have recovered & cleared quarantine. Cumulative national total = 990 herds in 17 states. This doesn't include the herd MN reported y'day.

Helen BranswellThough I didn't have sheep on my <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/H5N1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#H5N1</a> <a href="https://scicomm.xyz/tags/birdflu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#birdflu</a> bingo card, by this point nothing should surprise me or us about this tricky, tricky virus. The UK has found an infected sheep.

I think some of the significance of this (and the wider picture) is being missed in a lot of the reporting.

janhoglund“…every infection is a chance for the virus to mutate into a more virulent form, one of which could mutate so it could spread among humans.
