We need tests; rapid, low-cost, point of care & home based tests for flu, preferably H5. As important, we need strategy for rapid treatment when someone is infected w/ H5 flu. Antivirals work best if used in 1st 24-36 hrs. No time for hospital visit or line at pharmacy.…

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…

Trump did say it, but he NEVER asked me to slow down testing - in fact, he supported our efforts to massively scale testing and develop innovative models to get testing to every corner of the country. I tell the full story in my book. brettgiroir.com

Terrific write up of H5N1 today by @HelenBranswell (of course) However in it one of the CDC interviewees refers to wastewater samples that turn H5N1 positive due to birds as false positives. I disagree!!! If birds are infected around cows, those are highly relevant samples.…

Informative thread from @MichaelWorobey - It appears H5N1 may have been circulating in cattle much more widely than first assumed and *maybe* earlier. Seems to affirm that surveillance in livestock -- even after all we've learned about zoonotic risks -- still isn't that good.…

.@NPR @WStoneReports gets to the heart of 4 key questions that remain unsolved in current nationwide H5N1 avian flu outbreak among dairy cattle. Rapid sharing of all data by USG agencies will go far to help answer these questions faster. npr.org/sections/healt…
@MichaelWorobey Critical need for clinical & epidemiological data on human cases of H5N1, clinical syndrome including investigations, dynamic sampling, viral sequence & clearance dynamics & PK/PD of treatment
@svscarpino The milk is safe; that isn't the problem. The problem is that #H5N1 particles found in milk show just how widespread these infections are and how many chances they're getting to mutate.
It is not a human health problem until it suddenly it, but I guess we are all used to decision makers being "surprised" about viruses doing virus things
yes, PCR positive milk is not likely to be a public health issue. But the fact that avian influenza H5 seems to be widespread among a new mammal species is. The gradual " o, but it is not a human health problem (now, I would add) is typical for current day preparedness
This is exactly correct. There cannot be selective enforcement of rules. So clear distinctions, if any, must be drawn in advance, to prevent unprincipled inconsistencies.
Public prayer is beautiful. But when Harvard’s Jews aren’t allowed to leave their Menorahs overnight during Hanukkah while simultaneously antisemitic students are allowed to pitch tents, violate school policy, call for an intifada, and pray, then it’s a double…
Completely agree with this. We need to mass test animals and persons working on dairy farms for #H5N1 regardless if they have symptoms or not. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

I’d advise my well meaning health and science colleagues to choose their words wisely in regards to the safety of our dairy supply, and remember that not everyone has the luxury and privilege of avoiding milk out of an “abundance of caution.” Also, I had milk this morning.🥛
@JeromeAdamsMD As a mom of toddlers who have to drink cows milk, I felt much better after reading an article last night of some OSU and St Jude researchers who bought and tested several milks and were not able to find live virus- just H5N1 RNA fragments. Then they drank it for dinner 😂
On Accelerated Approval 1) In life threatening diseases like cancer the rapid approval of promising new drugs based on phase II data and/or surrogate endpoints is reasonable because waiting for full approval may result in more lives lost due to delay in approval of active drugs.
We need tests; rapid, low-cost, point of care & home based tests for flu, preferably H5. As important, we need strategy for rapid treatment when someone is infected w/ H5 flu. Antivirals work best if used in 1st 24-36 hrs. No time for hospital visit or line at pharmacy.…
@RickABright 15) Most people don’t get tested for flu even if they have flu symptoms, not to mention tested the H5N1 subtype, not to mention any test at all for flu symptoms. We are probably missing a lot of flu cases.
@ManitoGarcia4 @michaelmina_lab Live virus of this type from pasteurized milk seems practically impossible. Raw milk, perhaps. They are finding RNA fragments.
