The first outbreak of the rare bird flu in the poultry was discovered on a duck farm in CaliforniaThe World Animal Health Organization (WOAH) said on Monday.
The authorities said that the discovery of H5N9 bird flu came in addition to the discovery of the most common H5N1 breed on the same farm in Mercyd Province, CaliforniaAnd that nearly 119,000 birds on the farm have been killed since early December.
The US Department of Agriculture said in the report to Wah: “This is the first confirmed case for HPAI H5N9 in poultry in the United States,” said the US Department of Agriculture in the report.
He added: “The inspection service on animal and plant health in the US Department of Agriculture (Aphis), in conjunction with animal and wildlife officials, is conducting comprehensive epidemic investigations and enhancing monitoring in response to HPAI events,” he added.
Pathoid bird flu (HPAI), which is usually called bird flu, is an increased interest in epidemic scientists. The US National Medicine Library lists H5N9, as a sub -type bird flu.
“If this is the H5N9, the novel will lead to human infections from its bird host and become a sub -type of epidemic yet,” Beware of his website on the web. “Therefore, it is necessary to assess the risk of the emergence of this re -deported virus with the ability to potentially move to public health.”
Bird flu has spread all over the world in recent years, which has executed hundreds of millions of poultry. It also spread to dozens of types of mammals, including dairy cows in the United States, and killed a person in Louisiana earlier this year.
H5N1, bird flu spread in US cattle herds and poultry shares, as the US Department of Agriculture informed that more than 13,000,000 birds were affected in the last 30 days across all the fifty states of influenza. The H5N1 bird influenza has been injured or killed 136 meters since the disease began to spread in 2022.
This has led to the high prices of eggs. The United States’ Labor Office says that in September 2023, the average price of a degree A -Deline was more than $ 2. Now more than a year later, the data shows that the price may double more than twice to $ 4.16 in December 2024.

Bird flu outbreak is also increasing inside dairy herds, with more than 900 pieces of United States and 67 injured people. The increases are not yet indicated that the human epidemic is inevitable, but the authorities are concerned about bird flu in home cats.
according to A study published last year in the academic magazine emerging on microbes and inflammation, Cat H5N1 was unique mutations that could indicate “potential air conditioning.” I found cats Be able to “Crab ships to re -customize influenza viruses and mammals” in addition to the “bridge” to injure other types.
American Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says “Although the current public health risk is low, the center of diseases control the situation carefully and works with countries to monitor people who suffer from exposure of animals.”
