Repeating to correct: Dept. of Agriculture reports a major jump in the number of #H5N1 #birdflu infected herds in California. Up 41 herds to 178. May be 30 more herds in the testing pipeline; top herd confirmed was CA 208. Latest Michigan herd (on my chart) still not confirmed by USDA.

We are not dealing with one #mpox outbreak of one virus, but several simultaneous and overlapping outbreaks. To bring the outbreaks under control, we need stronger political commitment; fully resourced preparedness and response plans; more diagnostic and vaccine supplies; and
