Like clockwork, as we head into another election season, the medical establishment and the mainstream media are sounding the alarm on another potential pandemic:  the bird flu.

Just days after word that bird flu had spread to cows, word broke that two individuals in Texas had been infected.

The Gateway Pundit

The Texas Animal Health Commission (TAHC) and United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) received confirmation of the presence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in diagnostic samples from two Texas and two Kansas dairies.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), TAHC, Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory (TVMDL), and dairy veterinarians, along with other partners, are working closely to evaluate symptoms among primarily older dairy cows in Texas, Kansas, and New Mexico, of decreased lactation, low appetite, and other clinical signs. Diagnostic samples of unpasteurized milk from affected cattle collected from two dairy farms in Kansas and one in Texas, as well as an oropharyngeal swab from another dairy in Texas, were confirmed HPAI positive on March 25, 2024.

Additional testing was conducted after dairies reported finding deceased wild birds on their properties. The HPAI virus detections in Texas may have been introduced by wild birds. Initial testing by the National Veterinary Services Laboratories has not found changes to the virus that would make it more transmissible to humans, which would indicate that the current risk to the public remains low.

A 59-year-old man in Mexico has died with a type of bird flu – H5N2 – never recorded in people before now.

BBC

The first case and death of a person infected with the avian influenza A H5N2 virus is recorded in Mexico, the World Health Organization confirms this June 5.

This is the first laboratory-confirmed human case of influenza A(H5N2) virus infection reported worldwide and the first avian H5 virus infection in a person reported in Mexico. Although the source of exposure to the virus in this case is currently unknown, A(H5N2) viruses have been reported in poultry in Mexico.

Mexican Health Secretary Jorge Alcocer on Thursday denied an announcement by the World Health Organization (WHO) that a man’s death in Mexico was caused by a strain of bird flu that had never before been found in a human.

During a morning briefing, Alcocer rebuffed the WHO’s announcement and assured that the 59-year-old man, who was reported to have died from the A(H5N2) strain of avian influenza, “died from other causes, mainly kidney and respiratory failure.”

“I can point out that the statement made by the World Health Organization is pretty bad, since it speaks of a fatal case (of bird flu), which was not the case,” Alcocer said firmly.

The health secretary further suggested that the WHO failed to recognize that the patient’s death resulted from complications associated with longstanding health problems such as diabetes and renal failure. Investigations conducted found no evidence of contagion among people who had been in contact with the patient.
