Bird flu humans

Starting January this year, the country's first case of avian flu was seen in Chhindwara. The situation started to get worse as we entered February because a mutation was seen in this virus, affecting  pet cats.

Louisiana reports the first U.S. death from H5N1 bird flu. The person, aged 65+, had underlying health conditions and was exposed to infected backyard poultry. The public's risk remains low, but those with bird exposure are at higher risk.
