Hi Pixie,
Implications of legal/ "political" fight on pandemic (response) indeed looks terrible... One way of looking at it-cynical- is "ignoring the risks" may "deal with those that ignore the risk"... Michael Olesen     @maolesen · So H5 is showing up in wastewater in CA. Is it from cows or people? San Francisco and Palo Alto don't strike me as cattle country. -  < aria-expanded="false" aria-haspopup="menu" aria-label="More" role="" ="-175oi2r r-1777fci r-bt1l66 r-bztko3 r-lrvibr r-1loqt21 r-1ny4l3l" -testid="caret" ="" style="text-align: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-family: inherit; align-items: stretch; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid; border-color: black; display: flex; flex-basis: auto; flex-direction: column; flex-shrink: 0; list-style: none; margin: 0px; min-height: 20px; min-width: 0px; padding: 0px; : relative; : 0; overflow: ; justify-: center; cursor: pointer; outline-style: none; user-: none;"> H5N1 bird flu virus detected at 3 Bay Area wastewater sites in the past 2 weeks: SF x 2, Richmond, Palo Alto. CA appears to be the only state reporting H5N1 in wastewater that has yet to report H5N1 infected cattle. "Urban origin" is concerning. May be from wild poultry markets. DJ-the "good news" is the US at least has some level of H5N1 testing...Most countries may do even less...Mexico does import (infected ?) cattle from the US...has a higher consumption of "raw milk"... "no testing = no cases" has its limits...
