CDC Wants to “Treat” Asymptomatic Bird Flu, Expand Testing to Catch Alleged Symptomless Cases

Wouldn’t it be funny if Trump’s second term really was just a beat-for-beat remake of the first with bigger explosions? Like, if it ended with another virus hoax he couldn’t manage to stop?

Federal health officials on Thursday called for more testing of employees on farms with bird flu after a new study showed that some dairy workers had signs of infection, even when they didn’t report feeling sick.

Farmworkers in close contact with infected animals should be tested and offered treatment even if they show no symptoms, said Dr. Nirav Shah, principal director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The new guidance comes after blood tests for 115 farmworkers in Michigan and Colorado showed that eight workers — or 7% — had antibodies that indicated previous infection with the virus known as Type A H5N1 influenza.

“The purpose of these actions is to keep workers safe, to limit the transmission of H5 to humans and to reduce the possibility of the virus changing,” Shah told reporters.

The CDC study provides the largest window to date into how the bird virus first detected in March in dairy cows may be spreading to people. It suggests that the virus has infected more humans than the 46 farmworkers identified in the U.S. as of Thursday. Nearly all were in contact with infected dairy cows or infected poultry.

Outside experts said it’s notable that the study prompted the CDC to take new action. Previous recommendations called for testing and treating workers only when they had symptoms.

America is in war mode now. There isn’t likely to be another virus hoax in the near future.

But they sure are keeping it on the back-burner so that at any time, if necessary, the media can jump out and start pumping up another big time virus hoax.
