Quick Glance: H5N1 Strain of Bird Flu in Milk from Infected Cows, WHO Reports
  • The H5N1 bird flu virus strain has been detected in very high concentrations in raw milk from infected animals, the WHO said, though the survival time of the virus in milk is unknown.

  • Since 2020, the number of outbreaks in birds has exponentially increased, along with infections in mammals.

  • Deaths of millions of poultry, along with infections in wild birds and land and marine mammals, have been reported.

  • Transmission from bird to cow, cow to cow, and cow to bird have been recorded, suggesting possible new transmission routes for the virus.

Quick Glance: Hepatitis B Prevention and Treatment
  • Hepatitis B is a liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus, which can be acute or chronic. It can lead to fatal outcomes like cirrhosis and liver cancer.

  • The infection spreads through infected body fluids like blood, saliva, vaginal fluids, and semen, as well as from mother to child. A safe and effective vaccine provides nearly 100% protection against the virus.

  • Transmission commonly occurs from mother to child or through contact with infected blood. Symptoms range from jaundice to abdominal pain and vomiting. Chronic hepatitis B can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer.

  • Treatment for hepatitis B includes medications for chronic cases and vaccination for prevention. The World Health Organization advocates for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment measures to halt the spread of the disease and achieve elimination by 2030.
