TL;DR Summary

A third person in the US has tested positive for H5 bird flu, linked to an outbreak in dairy cattle in Michigan. This is the second case in the state and the fourth in the US. The infected farmworker exhibited respiratory symptoms, which experts say do not indicate increased human-to-human transmission risk. The CDC and Michigan health officials emphasize the importance of personal protective equipment for dairy workers and continue to monitor and test exposed individuals. The general public's risk remains low, but the situation underscores the need for vigilance among those working with infected animals.
