Second U.S. Dairy Worker Diagnosed with Bird Flu Amid Gear Shortages

Many U.S. dairy farms have not provided adequate protective gear to workers during a bird flu outbreak in cattle, raising concerns among health experts about the potential for human infections. Despite federal recommendations, many workers remain uninformed and unprotected, with some states yet to distribute necessary equipment. The CDC has urged the use of personal protective equipment, but implementation has been inconsistent, leaving workers at risk.
