Avian influenza or bird flu refers to the disease caused by infection with avian (bird) influenza (flu) Type A viruses. These viruses naturally spread among wild aquatic birds worldwide and can infect domestic poultry and other bird and animal species. Bird flu viruses do not normally infect humans. However, sporadic human infections with bird flu viruses have occurred.

  • Avian Flu Ravages US Poultry Industry, Millions of Birds Infected Across Multiple States

    Avian Flu Ravages US Poultry Industry, Millions of Birds Infected Across Multiple States
    Feb 12 2026
    Bird flu outbreaks continue to surge across the US, with fresh detections in Colorado and Pennsylvania hitting millions of birds. The USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service reports 1.3 million commercial table egg layers sickened in Weld County, Colorado, alongside 722,000 birds on a Lancaster County, Pennsylvania farm and smaller flocks totaling 70,000 there. Philadelphia live-bird markets lost 500 animals, while South Dakota's Charles Mix County saw 71,800 turkeys infected. Over the past 30 days, 59 flocks nationwide—19 commercial and 40 backyard—have been affected, involving 4.9 million birds, per CIDRAP.

    Human cases remain low risk, with CDC tallying 71 confirmed or probable infections since 2024, mostly among dairy and poultry workers. California leads with 38 cases, followed by Washington at 12 and Colorado at 10. No new US human cases reported in the last 24 hours, and surveillance of over 22,600 exposed individuals has yielded 64 detections.

    Globally, H5N1 struck Antarctica for the first time, killing over 50 skuas in 2023-2024 summers, according to a new Scientific Reports study by Erasmus MC and UC Davis. The virus caused severe neurological symptoms in the seabirds at sites like Beak Island, raising alarms for further spread amid climate pressures.

    The ongoing outbreak, now in its fourth year since 2022, disrupts poultry supplies and egg prices, with wild waterfowl driving seasonal resurgences, as noted by Texas A&M experts.

  • Widespread Avian Flu Outbreaks in US: Dairy Herds, Poultry Flocks, and Wild Birds Affected

    Widespread Avian Flu Outbreaks in US: Dairy Herds, Poultry Flocks, and Wild Birds Affected
    Feb 10 2026
    Bird flu, or highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1, continues to circulate widely in US wild birds, poultry, and dairy cows, with 71 confirmed human cases since 2024 mostly among dairy and poultry workers, according to the CDC's latest situation summary updated February 6. California leads with 38 cases linked to dairy herds, while Washington state reports 12 from poultry exposure, and Louisiana noted the first US death from backyard bird contact.

    In the past week, USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service confirmed major outbreaks, including 1.3 million commercial egg layers in Colorado's Weld County and 722,000 birds in Pennsylvania's Lancaster County, plus cases in South Dakota turkeys and Philadelphia live-bird markets, totaling 4.9 million birds affected in 59 flocks over 30 days. GISAID reports the clade 2.3.4.4b strain spreading in US animals, with closely related viruses in cows, farm workers, and raw milk showing high viral loads, though most human symptoms remain mild like conjunctivitis.

    CDC emphasizes low public health risk but enhanced surveillance, detecting 64 cases among over 22,600 exposed individuals. Federal testing mandates since 2024 have boosted dairy herd detections to over 1,000, aligning better with retail milk positives found in 36% of spring 2024 samples across 13 states, per Emerging Infectious Diseases.

    Globally, H5N1 caused over 50 skua deaths in Antarctica in 2023-2024, a first per UC Davis and Erasmus MC research, while EU nations like France and Germany report ongoing poultry outbreaks. Experts at Germany's RKI assess low general population risk but note mammalian adaptations in US cows raising vigilance.

    No new US human cases emerged in the last 24 hours, but seasonal migration fuels expectations of more poultry detections through spring, per Texas A&M AgriLife.

  • Soaring Concern: Global Bird Flu Outbreak Intensifies Amid Migratory Season

    Soaring Concern: Global Bird Flu Outbreak Intensifies Amid Migratory Season
    Feb 7 2026
    **BIRD FLU UPDATE: GLOBAL OUTBREAK CONTINUES**

    Highly pathogenic avian influenza remains a pressing concern across North America and internationally as winter migration patterns fuel ongoing spread.

    In the United States, the outbreak that began in early 2022 is now entering its fourth year. According to Texas A&M AgriLife, there have been 71 human cases of avian influenza across the U.S. as of late January, including two deaths. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention continues to emphasize that the health risk to the general public remains low. However, more than 186 million commercial and backyard poultry have been affected since January 2022, driving significant increases in egg and poultry prices at grocery stores nationwide.

    Recent detections show the virus spreading across multiple states. Colorado has experienced a new outbreak claiming 1.3 million chickens in Weld County, while Pennsylvania and Colorado are reporting additional cases. Texas has confirmed six positive avian influenza cases since mid-November in wild birds and backyard flocks. New York State continues monitoring the spread through winter months, with 69 suspected mortalities reported in November and December 2025, and presumptive positive cases detected in wild birds across 10 counties.

    The virus appears well-established in wild bird populations. Species confirmed as infected in New York include snow geese, Canada geese, swans, bald eagles, and red-tailed hawks. The infection has also jumped to mammals including red foxes, raccoons, and bobcats. Federal testing in U.S. dairy herds revealed the virus was far more widespread than initially detected, though enhanced surveillance mandated in 2024 has improved outbreak monitoring.

    Internationally, the situation is severe. Egypt reported 85 million birds infected as of February 4th, marking one of the most devastating outbreaks in recent memory. India faces repeated outbreaks across multiple states including Tamil Nadu, where the sudden death of nearly 1,500 crows has reignited concerns. Luxembourg reported a bird flu case on February 5th at a private bird owner's property in Schengen, reflecting the virus's spread across Europe along migratory bird routes.

    The World Health Organization reports that between January 2003 and December 2025, a total of 993 human cases of avian influenza were documented across 25 countries, with nearly 477 deaths, representing a 48 percent fatality rate.

    Health officials recommend strict biosecurity measures, including limiting outdoor poultry access and preventing contact between domestic birds and wild waterfowl. Experts expect sporadic cases to continue through spring as migration patterns persist.
