CDC streamlines bird flu and influenza reporting
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention July 7 announced it is streamlining H5N1 bird flu updates with its routine influenza data given the low public health risk and lack of person-to-person spread. Data on the number of people monitored and tested for bird flu will be reported monthly.
Bird flu detection data in animals will no longer be reported on the CDC website; instead, it will be publicly available on the U.S. Department of Agriculture website.
