Second U.S. Dairy Worker Contracts Bird Flu

A second human case of bird flu (H5N1) has been reported in the US, involving a dairy farm worker in Michigan who experienced mild symptoms and has recovered. The CDC maintains that the risk to the general public remains low, despite the virus's spread among dairy cows and the potential for more human cases. The USDA is providing financial aid to affected farms, and there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission at this time.
