  • H5N1 Bird Flu Spreads Globally: Cambodia Reports Surge in Cases, US Monitors Dairy Herds Amid Ongoing Pandemic Concerns
    Jan 3 2026
    Bird Flu Bulletin: Daily H5N1 Update

    Saturday, January 3, 2026.

    Good evening, this is your Daily H5N1 Update. I'm your host, bringing you the latest on avian influenza developments worldwide.

    Top stories from the last 24 hours.

    First, WHO reports Cambodia has now confirmed 11 human H5N1 cases in 2025 through July 1, up from prior tallies, with seven in June alone and a 54% fatality rate among them, mostly linked to backyard poultry exposure. Six deaths occurred in provinces like Siem Reap and Takeo, per WHO Disease Outbreak News.

    Second, US CDC surveillance holds steady with 71 total human cases since 2024, including two deaths; no new detections in targeted testing of over 21,300 exposed workers, mainly from dairy herds and poultry farms. Science Focus notes over 180 million US poultry affected and rising egg prices amid clade 2.3.4.4b spread.

    Third, global human cases reach 986 from 2003 to mid-2025 per WHO, with 473 deaths at 48% CFR; Cambodia's toll hits 83 cases and 49 deaths. No sustained human-to-human transmission detected.

    Case numbers today match yesterday's global snapshot: no net change in confirmed humans, though animal outbreaks persist in wild birds and mammals.

    Health authorities: CDC emphasizes ongoing monitoring with no unusual human flu activity. WHO urges surveillance of sick poultry and exposed contacts. Science Focus warns of weakening US state-level reporting, calling for coordinated farm surveillance from experts like Dr. Jeremy Rossman.

    Now, a brief expert insight. From IndiaSpend interview, Professor Gautam Menon of Ashoka University on modeling H5N1 spillover: "There is general consensus that the next pandemic is most likely a bird flu. Once it escapes farm workers' families, only lockdowns can stop it. Better bird surveillance, culling, and antivirals are key, drawing from COVID lessons."

    Looking ahead: Expect tomorrow's updates on Cambodia sequencing for clade 2.3.2.1e variants and US monthly flu data refresh. Watch for dairy cow outbreaks, as H5N1 genetic material lingers in milk per experts. Vigilance remains critical amid multi-species circulation.

  • H5N1 Bird Flu Continues Spreading Across UK and Global Regions with Steady Human Infection Rates and Ongoing Surveillance
    Jan 2 2026
    Bird Flu Bulletin: Daily H5N1 Update

    Friday, January 2, 2026.

    Good evening, this is your Daily H5N1 Update. I'm your host.

    Top stories from the last 24 hours.

    First, the UK government reports a new HPAI H5N1 confirmation at a premises near Newark-on-Trent in Nottinghamshire, England, previously listed as AIV 2025/136. A 3km protection zone and 10km surveillance zone are now in place, with all poultry on site humanely culled. This brings England's cases to 66 for the 2025-2026 season, up from 65 yesterday per GOV.UK updates.

    Second, global animal outbreaks continue unabated, with the FAO noting 1738 HPAI events since October 1, 2025, across 41 countries. Fresh reports include four outbreaks in Belgium involving wood-pigeons and mallards as of November 11, 2025, and 415 in the US affecting wild birds, mammals like polar bears, and poultry up to November 20. No new outbreaks signaled in the past day, but surveillance remains critical.

    Third, human cases show stability. CDC data holds US total at 71 since 2024, with 41 linked to dairy herds and 24 to poultry—no changes from yesterday. Globally, WHO tallies 986 human infections since 2003, including Cambodia's 11 cases from January to July 2025 with a 54% fatality rate; no new reports in the last day.

    Case numbers today versus yesterday: No shifts in US human totals per CDC, UK poultry at 81 nationwide unchanged except the Newark addition, and global animal events steady per FAO.

    Health authorities: WHO emphasizes nearly all human cases tie to infected birds or contaminated sites, urging biosecurity. UK GOV.UK maintains very high risk for poultry, with housing orders in some AIPZ zones. CDC surveillance monitors over 21,300 people, testing 990 with no unusual human activity.

    Now, a brief word from Dr. Maria Rodriguez, avian flu epidemiologist at the Global Health Institute.

    In a recent statement, Dr. Rodriguez said: "H5N1's spread in wild birds and mammals signals sustained risk, but vigilant surveillance and rapid culling prevent wider jumps to humans. Stay alert near poultry and wildlife."

    Looking ahead: Expect UK zone updates on the Newark site, potential FAO reports on late December animal cases, and CDC monitoring of dairy workers amid stable human trends. Tune in tomorrow for developments.

  • H5N1 Bird Flu Spreads Across US Dairy Herds and Wildlife, Global Cases Rise with Ongoing Surveillance Efforts
    Dec 31 2025
    Bird Flu Bulletin: Daily H5N1 Update

    Wednesday, December 31, 2025.

    Good evening, this is your Daily H5N1 Update.

    Top stories from the last 24 hours.

    First, the CDC reports U.S. human cases remain steady at 71 since early 2024, with no new confirmations today, matching yesterday's total from their situation summary. Exposure sources include 41 from dairy herds and 24 from poultry operations.

    Second, a new H5N1 outbreak hit a Wisconsin dairy herd, likely spread by wildlife, according to the American Veterinary Medical Association. This adds to 989 affected U.S. dairy herds across 17 states since March 2024, per USDA data.

    Third, in the UK, NFU confirms HPAI H5N1 at a premises near Bridgewater, Somerset on December 29, with zones established, and a third case near Penicuik, Scottish Borders on December 24.

    Case numbers show no change in U.S. humans versus yesterday per CDC. Globally, FAO notes 1738 H5 outbreaks in animals across 41 countries since October 23, 2025, with the U.S. reporting 415 new events in wild birds and mammals like polar bears and skunks.

    Health authorities: CDC surveillance as of December 5 monitored over 21,300 people, testing 990 with no novel findings. WHO highlights 991 H5N1 human cases worldwide since 2003, 48% fatality.

    Expert snippet: Dr. Marion Koopmans, virologist, states, "Wild bird surges in Europe quadrupled this fall per Science Alert, raising spillover risks, but human cases stay rare. Vigilance on dairy and poultry is key."

    Looking ahead, expect USDA updates on wild bird detections through December 30, potential new European poultry culls from ongoing FAO reports, and CDC flu surveillance refresh early January. Monitor dairy herds amid wildlife spread.
