Surge in Bird Flu Searches in the U.S. Following Severe Human Case
Recent searches for bird flu have surged in the U.S. following the announcement of the first severe human case of H5N1 detected in Louisiana. A 65-year-old man, already suffering from other health issues, is in critical condition. Authorities emphasize that there is no evidence of human-to-human transmission of the virus. California’s governor declared a state of emergency to manage the growing concerns as cases among livestock increase. According to health experts, symptoms in humans resemble those of seasonal flu but may escalate to respiratory distress and gastrointestinal issues.
