After delay, #CDC releases data signaling #BirdFlu spread undetected in #cows and #people
February 13, 20251:00 PM ET

"The first study on the #H5N1 bird flu outbreak from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to make it to publication under the #Trump administration came out Thursday.
"The journal released data suggesting some #spillovers from dairy cattle into humans have gone #undetected, including in states where dairy herds have not tested positive.
"This comes after a #freeze in external communications that interrupted the agency's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, or #MMWR, a mainstay of public health communication. Publication on other topics resumed last week.
"In the new study, researchers analyzed blood samples collected from 150 veterinarians who worked with cattle around the country and found that three of them had #antibodies to the H5N1 virus, indicating recent infections. None recalled having any influenza-like symptoms or conjunctivitis. They also did not care for any cattle with known or suspected infections, although one did work with infected poultry.
"The findings underscore the difficulty of detecting and controlling human infections based on whether a person seeks out medical care, says Gregory Gray, an infectious disease epidemiologist at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston.
"'If the circulating #H5 viruses become more transmissible between humans, we are not going to be able to control transmission as the viruses will spread rapidly and often #subclinically,' says Gray.
"Previous CDC research that surveyed dairy workers found 7% had evidence of past infections, although only half reported symptoms. Work from Gray and his colleagues in Texas also indicates some cases in the dairy industry workforce are going undetected.
"'It means our surveillance is inadequate,' says Lauren Sauer, a professor at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Public Health. 'Any detection of #asymptomatic or mild cases in this study just tells me we're missing cases.'"

"Was Missouri’s bird flu case a one-off or something more? Quest for answers faces testing delay
The additional wait will likely fuel concerns about the possibility of human-to-human transmission"
Some article screenshots for posterity. A HP avian influenza strain in the US may have evolved to escape detection (tests), thus becoming a "mysterious respiratory disease".

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has blood samples from several health workers and a household contact of the Missouri case that it plans to test for antibodies that would indicate whether they too had been infected with the virus, an agency official told STAT.

“The antibodies that would grow in the person exposed to that virus would then be different then the antibodies that would grow in a person who had a virus without those mutations,” Daskalakis said.
Developing the new test has been challenging because the sample from the patient contained so little viral material that the CDC was not able to grow whole viruses from it. Instead its scientists have had to reverse engineer H5N1 viruses that contain the changes to use them as the basis for the new serology test, he said.
There is still no explanation of how the individual contracted the virus. The unidentified individual was hospitalized for other health problems on Aug. 22, and was released three days later. While in hospital the person was tested for a panel of respiratory viruses and tested positive for influenza.

Jesse Bloom, an evolutionary virologist at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle, recently commented on the mutations of the Missouri virus on the social media site X, noting that one is sufficiently important that it might erode the effectiveness of some of the candidate vaccine viruses that have been create to be the starting material for H5 vaccines, if mass production is needed.
Bloom told STAT the mutation is not present in the candidate virus that was used to produce 4.8 million doses of vaccine that are currently held in the Department of Health and Human Services’ National Pre-Pandemic Influenza Vaccine Stockpile.
The mutation in the Missouri virus could also affect a serology test’s ability to detect antibodies in blood samples, if the test did not look for antibodies that recognize it, Bloom said. The result could be a false negative test, or test results that are hard to read.

This is not proof of human to human bird flu spread, yet. But it is proof that outbreaks could happen undetected, especially as the symptoms may be dismissed as RSV disease, the now hyper-normalized COVID-19, or seasonal flu. There's also a chance that the avian influenza virus can mix with the seasonal influenza virus. That would *also* be very bad.
The avian influenza virus circulating so freely would allow it to mutate a lot, which is not going to work out well for... the human species.

Thank your local animal farming sector for bringing about yet another pandemic.

An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Guardian: The technology flaws of the U.S. Secret Service helped the gunman who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, last month evade detection. An officer broadcast "long gun!" over the local law enforcement radio...
If, without being detected, you could spy electronically for the next month and watch anyone, anywhere, anytime like a fly on a wall, would you? If so, who would you watch and how closely? If not, why not?
