CDC calls for expanded testing for bird flu 

Quick Summary:

Federal health officials on Thursday called for more testing of employees on farms with bird flu after a new study showed that some dairy workers had signs of infection, even when they didn’t report feeling sick.

The virus has been confirmed in at least 446 cattle herds in 15 states.

It suggests that the virus has infected more humans than the 46 farmworkers identified in the US as of Thursday.
