- Highly patorneneveno avancence (Hpai), commonly known as the bird’s flu, has been detected in Washing County, Michigan. FIRST 2025 of February, about 100 dead birds, mainly canada waves, were found in the county, with preliminary tests indicating hpai as. A additional bird 60-70 were found died close to the level of level / washetta or january. These results are part of a larger fire that affects more than 300 wild birds across five counties in the lower penis of michigan.
- HPAI is a highly contagious respiratory disease that affects the birds and some mammals, spread the feces or infected bird drop. The DNR recommend residents to avoid direct contact with wild birds and to report any sick or dead birds across their dnr “Eyes in the” Online tool field. I am (Source: Michigan.govIt)
- The CDC both destinies tightly power due to his potential for moods for mutela and laying a sack risk, and progress to wild nature. Recent cases including the first death, put the need for continued survey of continued survey, as well as genetic blogs could increase a risk of future stuff. The H5N1 Flu Puts a low health risk for humans. While most cases lie direct eye contact, a recent study found antibodies in veterinary, indicating potential exposure without illness. This suggests that while the virus can infect the man, do not disappear among people, keeping the public risk.
- Cathy teisena vet rugged by the first responsible for the first responsible in the HPAI has been suspected, and have been suspected. But we are being suspended. At the Espeemic. At the 822 of January, the national price for a dozen an eggs approx. 1.93, and de dec of national price has been risen at $ 4.15. It is expected to increase more than this year.
- The chickens of the chickens and ducks of the bad ones can be infected. Cathy advises the birds to look at home. HPAI has also been found in cattle, and milk was lived in michigan as part of viral surveillance.
- Then while the risk of severe disease for severe animals, including cats and dogs, it is low, bosses the animals, and a dead bird contact. Since pets live with humans, the potential of the genetic transmission to man is important to minimize exposure.
- Birds typically congregate to food as the chickado of the Northern Cardinals, etc. I am not known to spell hpave bird feeding with 10% bleach every two weeks to prevent disease, and if the frequent water has to be removed for now.
Transcripting
David Fair: The birds flu is a growth trouble, and makes his presence known in Washing County. I am divided, and welcome to editing this week of the environment. The flatten influence in a passage way is not only impact of the commercial pollen farm, but in wild birds too. In the beginning of the beginning of the beginning of 100 dead birds were found in Washing County, with preliminary results indicating the flu of birds as the cause. Obviously, they are worried about where this is in the head and impact that may have. Cathy Heaise is a reckon reckoned the first respect from a first washing account, and she join all occasion their observations and perspective. Thank you tute to make time for us, Cathy! I appreciate it!
Cathy insisted: Thanks, David! I’m happy to share any information I can.
David Fair: In just the reading of her, I have the sense that this will be worse before getting better. What is your data and your expertise tell you?
Cathy insisted: Yes. I think we have some strong enough evidence that is going to go before you get better. This special cycle of ancient infence in 2021, and that is a normal thing in wild birds that cycles through. But this is a very patogenic strap, which means that, especially in poulry, is particularly mortibly. So historically, avian fury and a disaster and an ecology because of the pot producers and october producers to lose their products. The ecological disaster because the wild birds, they also threatened birds, can have a colony comply colon. But now, as you moved to be spilled in other mammals and other species, there is starting that it will be muted in a situation where it would be a human transfer, that would represent a leisette.
David Fair: I’m just full of good news, you are not?
Cathy insisted: Yes.
David Fair: I mentioned in February that some 100 100 wild birds were found dead in the county, most of them Canadian geese. Preliminariously, the culprit: avian fla. Also, in June, 60 to 70 wild birds were found dead near the Salidow County line. Regional, more than 300 cases of fatal flu between wild lives. Where are the wild birds pick up the disease?
Cathy insisted: Well, again, it’s a normal cyclical disease. So it’s still a guy out in the wild population. They do not have the social distance. When a bird gets sick, it’s very easy for her spread all the flock. And therefore, some birds, as a ducks, for example, they are designed to have a few endurance. So some of them become carers, even if they are themselves are not sick. Gessare, Swedes and certainly dyerly dying from the disease, and then his body becomes a virus reservoir. So, animals that break up on them, or other birds that swim in the near, healthy water, traveled to the cycling.
David Fair: Our property of American conversation with the vet withdrawal and avian First responder Carihhy Celly Theisen continues to 89 a Wemu. Now, you talked as devastating is for the poultry farm. Nearly all the population is to die or should be destroyed. Correct?
Cathy insisted: Yes, I don’t die. This went to a poultry for a long time. So there are some very strict drive. For example, when I replied to an avian influence fire, what happens is approaching an infected pollen farm, park by the end, there will be a trash. Any birds that die that day are taken from the trash, and tracheal swabs are taken. I would be dressed with a neck neck suit, rubber boots, a respirator, whole nine. Averyconte and me if the facility takes a positive bird, all the bird’s house is depove. I’m euthanized immediately because it’s very pathogen and it can be transferred from home at home. But pullight owners know this and have been attentive to biossecurities for years. The larger problem is we started to see in 2024 in lacticine cattle. And historically, the battles of latch did not have a good biossecat in place. The USDA stated an emergency due to the side of the side, and now the milk from the farms of the gutter is tried for the next month. If there is a positive then there is a whole algorithm of the things that happens on a leading farm. So that’s the kind of the new thing. It’s a little frightening. And workers on the latticine farms have a very closer contact with their animals. So on a puullight farm, they live in a grain, they are fueled and monitored. But there is no day or day contact at a dairy farm. The cattle are spoken twice daily, please have worked that they acquire milk in his eye, secure to yourself, there is a greatest interface umn. And so, it’s a concern about how we can develop biosingcurities of beams of tears.
David Fair: Like all it will ask an evolution, with this in mind, how old are you that new attitudes and potential policies in public health can be the situation?
Cathy insisted: Extremely! Specifically, the President Trump has had the US would like a partnership with the World organization, which is the organization that the organization that sorts of the illnesses of the illnesses. So if a disease as this wall in Africa or Asia, is certainly the United States, understand when it is not in our country, you get no country. But when we choose ourselves from global scientific community, we lose to the ability to keep these diseases from entering our country. So if you are very worried about any scientific trimmers working in epidemic oe pandemic type epidemics.
David Fair: The egg price, the potential threat of milk – everything has become unique political purpose then of the problem of public health. How do you negotiate policy?
Cathy insisted: Here is a hard question. For me, the answer is easy. I’m a scientist. And so, you would go with science. If we have a disease starting to take in our country, we raise quickly, and get our best epientologists and scientists. The egg price is not a political problem. The egg price is caused by the number of birds they had to be depopulated. So there are many, many, many, many menu laps put in the United States because of this disease. Several poulters ask a housing of a housing apurvan because you are where the government gives it any conponse to birds that you are never saddle. They prefer a lot to have a vaccine and be able to continue. It is very difficult for me to think of the disease as a political situation.
David Fair: Cattle has become one of the longest four-letter words in the American vocabulary.
Cathy insisted: Yes, he has. And, again, I can’t understand that.
David Fair: So our time together run short. But I want to ask a final question. So, based on what you know today don’t see in the field and where we are to drive in public policy, we are in the form of best years we are today?
Cathy insisted: Well, I am an eternal optimist. So I hope radio thoughts and they will be there, even if you came a late country that can be very worried about the world to make the spread of these diseases. So, I hope we’ll get up to the dangers that are out. And, again, I don’t want your listeners to think that avian infeness is a big situation that happened to people. It’s not. The risk for people now is very much, very low. But there are a warning signs that if you change. So, now is the time to act, not once that once became panent or epidemic for people.
David Fair: Well, Cathy, Thank you so much for your time today! And there will be more time occasionally for us to talk to you again online.
Cathy insisted: You, thank you so much, David!
David Fair: That is cathy theisen. It’s a vet withdrawn. For more information about very patagenic or bird in our area, stays from our website in Wemu.org.
