US reports first outbreak of H5N9 bird flu in poultry
PARIS, Jan 27 (Reuters) - The United States has reported its first outbreak of H5N9 bird flu in poultry on a duck farm in California, the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) said on Monday.
U.S. authorities also detected the more common H5N1 strain on the same farm in Merced County, California, they said in a report to Paris-based WOAH, adding that the almost 119,000 birds on the farm had been killed by Dec. 2.
Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), commonly called bird flu, has spread around the globe in recent years, leading to the culling of hundreds of millions of poultry. It also spread to dozens of mammal species, including dairy cows in the U.S. and killed a person in Louisiana.

Hopefully, we don't see a repeat of trump's botched response to COVID we saw during trump 1.0. Not to equate the bird flu with a global pandemic. It's just not the time to be playing politics with...........well...........everything........including the NIH.
Most of it based on the delusional bullshit about the fictitious deep state.
