It’s clear that “citizen science” is playing an important role in filling knowledge gaps. It would be great to see someone sequencing the samples from wastewater and watersheds that might be showing peaks of flu A in March/April. - @statnews statnews.com/2024/04/25/h5n…
Due to enormous and collaborative effort from the @nextstrain team, @hamesjadfield @trvrb and of course @USDA , we now have the USDA cattle sequences on Nextstrain: nextstrain.org/avian-flu/h5n1… visualized with new, 2-year builds.
H5N1 update: We have to do better, faster, by @dr_kkjetelina open.substack.com/pub/yourlocale… Excellent update on #HPAI by "Your Local Epidemiologist"
If you work with farm animals thought to be infected with #H5N1, CDC recommends you wear personal protective equipment (PPE) and wash your hands after handling their litter, feces, or milk. More on how to protect yourself from #birdflu: bit.ly/4aLr7qD
"It's a huge problem for farming and agricultural communities that we don't talk about enough in situations like this" A story on #H5N1 outbreak from cattle veterinarian perspective Important, timely reporting from @RachelNuwer @ThinkGlobalHlth @CFR_org thinkglobalhealth.org/article/cattle…
I think it is important that we start testing asymptomatic cattle, both dairy and beef. Important to start genomic surveillance in Mexico and Canada, the two largest export markets for US cattle (in that order).
So, *preliminary* molecular clock analyses indicate that the time of the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) of the US cattle flu clade was late December. TMRCA of that clade and the closest relatives in birds, mid-December. If single intro, likely between those rough dates.
@LancetDigitalH @JAMAPediatrics @Nature_NPJ @NEJM 11/n Bottom line: 1. massive data on devastating effects of COVID in pregnant women & their newborns, 2. massive data on the benefits of COVID vaccinations for pregnant women & newborns 3. massive data on the genetic basis of autism; no plausibility for vaccines causing autism
So happy to see more CDC data available to the public to help people make the best choice for the health of their families. HeatRisk may not be on your mind today (it was 37F in Atlanta this AM?!) but be sure to bookmark it for this summer.

Yeah, this is where we are at. I'm too tired to play games. I just want to see the data. I'm just assuming there will be a more formal report. And I'll post it here. All the rest is a waste of my bandwidth atm. #H5N1 x.com/helenbranswell…

H5N1 is turning out to be a fantastic example of how *not* to communicate during an outbreak. This (and many other failings) is knowledge translation 101. Common guys, get it together.

Kudos to @CDCgov for putting out these technical summaries at a steady frequent pace covering what we know and what work is being done. These situation reports are critical for fostering a unified public understanding of #H5N1 risk level & triggers for greater concern.
The thread I did/did not want with my second cup of coffee this fine morning. #influenza #H5N1 Tom is always great at slowing down, assessing the larger picture of the Natural History of this virus. Which can be difficult in such a complex, data poor, emerging situation.

SCOOP: A manufacturing issue with certain avian influenza tests was discovered earlier this week, but the CDC says no tests are inaccurate or need to be repeated. w/ @ChelseaCirruzzo: subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2024/0…
We are monitoring the H5N1 virus situation closely and wanted to share what information we at Biobot have at the moment:
It’s Friday!!! We’re using exclamation points, so you know we’re excited! Now we’re using a period, so you know we’re not too excited. Here's another period as a buffer, proving our normalness. #NationalParkWeek

WHO says the risk of H5N1 bird flu is "evolving with the virus and needs real-time monitoring." "WHO and partners are asking countries to rapidly share information to enable this."
The testing of milk for the genomic remnants of virus that has been killed through pasteurization is showing that H5N1 may be so prevalent on dairy farms, that the U.S. may be close to achieving some measure of herd immunity among dairy cows, at least to this particular strain of…
Given (1) how widespread bovine H5N1 is, (2) how long it has been circulating (~4 months we estimate), and how prevalent it appears to be (present in commercial milk supply), I predict this outbreak will leave most cattle in the US recovered and immune within a few months.
The sequences posted to date allow us to look for any red flag mutations and relate them to one another... But without that critical metadata we cannot 🕰 the true cattle-specific rate to be more accurate to origin... or build the best epi model of spread across US.
It’s clear that “citizen science” is playing an important role in filling knowledge gaps. It would be great to see someone sequencing the samples from wastewater and watersheds that might be showing peaks of flu A in March/April. - @statnews statnews.com/2024/04/25/h5n…
