Mice had previously only been infected as part of lab experiments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tuesday&#8217;s report came just a week after <a href=\"https:\/\/bnonews.com\/index.php\/2024\/05\/h5n1-bird-flu-found-in-alpacas-for-the-first-time\/\">alpacas in Idaho<\/a> were also found to be infected with H5N1, and just over two months after the virus was found in dairy cows for the first time. The number of outbreaks at dairy farms in the U.S. has since risen to 81 in 9 states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The global spread of H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b \u2013 and the recent spread to a growing number of mammals \u2013 has raised concern about the possibility of human-to-human transmission from a future variant, though so far only a few human cases have been found after contact with infected birds or cattle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Three workers at dairy farms in Michigan and Texas\u00a0have tested positive\u00a0for H5N1 bird flu in recent weeks but only <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/media\/releases\/2024\/p0530-h5-human-case-michigan.html\" target=\"_blank\">one of them<\/a> experienced acute respiratory illness. More serious cases have been reported in other countries though none have involved human-to-human transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last month, the U.S. government announced nearly $200 million in funding to fight the spread of H5N1 bird flu in dairy cows, including support for dairy farms, testing, vaccine development, surveillance and measures to ensure the safety of commercial milk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nearly a dozen house mice in New Mexico have tested positive for H5N1 bird flu, according to federal officials, adding them to the growing list of mammals being infected with avian influenza.
