Correcting: #USDA reports a major jump in the number of #H5N1 #birdflu infected herds in California. Up 41 herds today to 178. May be 30 more herds in the testing pipeline; top herd confirmed was CA 208.
Latest Michigan herd still not confirmed by USDA.
Cumulative national total: 381 herds (with the extra Michigan herd) in 14 states.
(Dropped reference to the number of herds in the Central Valley.) https://www.aphis.usda.gov/livestock-poultry-disease/avian/avian-influenza/hpai-detections/hpai-confirmed-cases-livestock

I read John M Berry's book The Great Influenza back when it was published in the 2004. It has a decidedly American viewpoint, but still. I hope it's on the reading list for leaders everywhere. #BirdFlu #SpanishFlu #Influenza #H5N1
@Krosen_nw @HelenBranswell I've got a copy of that book at home. Should probably revisit.
