The emergence of the bird flu virus among cattle has been a cause for concern among experts. Unlike birds, which often succumb to the virus, cattle typically only experience morbidity when infected. However, there is a worry that if infected cattle come into contact with humans, they could potentially harm them and create a new strain that could be transmitted from person to person.
To prevent the spread of the disease, experts recommend closely monitoring infected cattle and conducting frequent checks. In addition to monitoring, there is also a suggestion to develop vaccines for both animals and humans in order to stop the disease from spreading further. Isolating sick individuals is also crucial in containing the disease as much as possible.
One individual in Texas has been moderately ill with familiar flu symptoms, but strict monitoring is necessary to prevent further spread of the disease and the development of more dangerous strains. The infection among cattle is believed to have started around 4 months ago, and it is important that measures are taken now to contain it before it becomes a larger problem.
