California Investigates Potential Bird Flu Case in Child After Drinking Raw Milk

Late last month, Fresno-based Raw Farm halted distribution and recalled several lots of milk and cream after testing by the California Department of Public Health found bird flu virus in samples of bulk milk and bottled products from the dairy. Raw Farm has said it has paused production while its herd is under quarantine.

More testing is underway at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to determine whether the child had H5N1 bird flu.
