The fearmongering doesn’t work: U.S. reports no new cases of BIRD FLU in humans for 3 months
05/25/2025 // Ava Grace
The U.S. has reported no new human bird flu infections since February, puzzling experts. While the CDC attributes this to declining animal cases, some suspect undetected infections, especially among farmworkers avoiding testing.
California, previously the outbreak epicenter, has seen a dramatic decline in human testing, only four tests recorded in March and April combined, with none in May.
The CDC suggests the lull may reflect seasonal patterns, but critics argue severe cases should still be detected. Others warn that surveillance has weakened due to staffing shortages and reduced federal efforts.
Immigrant workers – disproportionately affected – may avoid testing due to fear of deportation, potentially masking ongoing infections.
Despite the decline, researchers stress H5N1 remains a threat. Ongoing studies aim to track exposure, but funding and political challenges hinder preparedness efforts. The CDC maintains a "moderate" pandemic risk assessment.
For the past three months, not a single new human case of H5N1 bird flu has been officially reported in the U.S. – leaving scientists and health officials scratching their heads. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the decline in cases aligns with reduced infections in animals.
