The purpose of this briefing is to provide the latest information on the status of H5N1, also known as bird flu, and to give clear guidance for individuals, families, and those working in high-risk settings. Our priority is to keep you informed and protected as we address this evolving public health situation.
As of July 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention continues to classify the public health risk from H5N1 bird flu as low, but we are seeing ongoing outbreaks in wild birds, domestic poultry, and dairy cattle across the United States. According to the CDC and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, more than 169 million birds have been impacted nationally, with human cases identified primarily among individuals with direct animal exposures. Most human infections have caused mild illness, though rare severe cases and one fatality have occurred. Vigilant monitoring and swift containment remain essential.
Understanding symptoms and knowing when to seek care is critical. If you experience mild symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat, or a runny nose and you have not had direct contact with sick or dead birds or animals, monitor your symptoms at home and rest. If you develop shortness of breath, chest pain, persistent vomiting, confusion, or high fever that doesn’t improve, or if you’ve had close contact with affected animals and feel unwell, seek medical attention promptly. Early medical care can make a difference, especially for those with underlying conditions or weakened immune systems.
For those working in poultry farms, dairies, veterinary clinics, or animal transport, strict containment protocols are essential. Always use personal protective equipment including gloves, masks, and eye protection when working with or near birds or animals that may be infected. Wash hands thoroughly after handling animals or contaminated materials, and report any sudden animal illness or deaths to your supervisor and local agricultural authorities immediately. Follow all site-specific disinfection and biosecurity procedures. If you develop symptoms after known exposure, contact occupational health services promptly.
For the general public, here are the top guidelines in priority order:
- Avoid contact with sick or dead wild birds and mammals or their droppings and do not handle poultry that appear ill.
- Do not consume raw or unpasteurized dairy products.
- Thoroughly cook all poultry and eggs to a temperature of at least 165°F.
- Practice regular hand hygiene, especially after outdoor activities or handling pets.
- Keep pets away from wild birds and their nesting areas.
- Stay informed via official updates; do not rely on rumors or unverified social media posts.
If you need more information, reliable resources include the CDC, the USDA, and your state or local health department. In case of medical emergency, call 911 or your local emergency services. For agricultural emergencies or reporting sick animals, contact your local USDA office.
