Today On Medical Grounds, we will be speaking with Dr. Matt Binnicker, Director of Clinical Virology at Mayo Clinic about bird flu. Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses have been detected in wild aquatic birds, commercial poultry, and backyard flocks beginning around January 2022 in the U.S. To date, over 100,700,000 birds have been affected. Recently, cases of bird flu have been detected in 171 dairy herds, and there have been 13 reported human cases in the U.S. There have also been human cases reported overseas. Dr. Binnicker joins us to share his knowledge of bird flu, vaccines, and whether we need to be concerned about a new pandemic.
