As a physician, I am closely following a bird flu outbreak that is hitting our Central Valley dairy farms hard, especially since the California Department of Health reports at least 13 human cases.
A raw milk maker who is now prohibited from distributing his product after California regulators found multiple instances of bird flu contamination believes he is the target of a political witch hunt.
A child in the Bay Area who consumed raw milk and became sick from a suspected case of bird flu has recovered, and health officials warn against consuming raw milk due to the risk of illnesses.
