The US hasn’t seen a human bird flu case in 3 months. Experts are wondering why

The United States has been spared from any new human cases of bird flu for the past three months, leaving health officials puzzled as to why this sudden decline has occurred. While experts continue to warn of the dangers of bird flu, the absence of new cases has raised questions about whether the monitoring and detection efforts have been compromised.

One possible reason for the decrease in reported cases could be the natural seasonality of bird flu. Typically, cases peak in the fall and early winter, coinciding with the migration patterns of wild birds that are known carriers of the virus. This natural ebb and flow of infections could explain the current lull in human cases.

However, some experts are concerned that mild cases of bird flu may be going undetected due to a potential weakening of monitoring efforts. Resignations at key government agencies, such as the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Veterinary Medicine, have raised concerns about the capacity to effectively monitor and respond to outbreaks.

The fear of deportation among immigrant farmworkers, who have been disproportionately affected by the virus, may also be contributing to underreporting of cases. The Trump administration’s immigration policies have created an environment of fear and uncertainty, making it less likely for individuals to seek testing and treatment for potential infections.

Despite the decline in reported cases, the risk to the general public remains low, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). However, the CDC acknowledges that there is a moderate risk of currently circulating strains of bird flu causing a future pandemic. Research efforts are ongoing, with studies being conducted to assess past exposure to the virus among dairy workers and domestic cats.

Overall, the absence of new human cases of bird flu in the U.S. is a positive development, but the underlying reasons for this decline warrant further investigation. Continued vigilance and monitoring are crucial to prevent future outbreaks and protect public health.
