Highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 has caused 71 confirmed human cases across 13 US states since 2024, with ongoing exposure through dairy farms and poultry operations. As of June 2026, cases have been confirmed in California, Colorado, Iowa, Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. Three cases involved unknown exposure sources. Two deaths have occurred. CDC considers current risk to the general public as low, but monitors closely for signs of person-to-person transmission. Track Avian Influenza H5N1 (Bird Flu) activity and outbreaks specific to Missouri.
Open Web AppH5N1 was first identified in humans in Hong Kong in 1997 during an outbreak linked to live poultry markets. Since 2003, it has caused numerous outbreaks in bird populations across Asia, Africa, and parts of Europe, leading to sporadic but often severe human infections and significant concerns for pandemic potential.
Avian Influenza H5N1 primarily spreads to humans through direct, prolonged contact with infected poultry (live or dead), their secretions (saliva, feces), or contaminated environments (e.g., surfaces in live bird markets). Human-to-human transmission is rare and has not been sustained, but close contact with an infected person might pose a limited risk.
