After the first case of transfer from bovine to human was identified in Texas in April, a second patient who contracted bird flu from a cattle herd was identified in Michigan earlier this month, ABC News reports. The patient has since recovered after reporting red eyes as the only symptom he experienced.
It’s the second case of human bird flu infection occurring in the United States during the “Biden pandemic” you’ll see in a future Fox cable chyron. It’s the third case of bird flu infection ever recorded in the US: in 2022, a worker at a Colorado poultry farm got infected while assisting with “depopulating” infected poultry.
