With Bird Flu in Raw Milk, Many Still Do Not Know Risks of Consuming It. (www.annenbergpublicpolicycenter.org)

Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) located H5N1 bird flu virus in samples of raw, or unpasteurized, milk in tests in four states in April 2024, and bird flu has been detected in commercially sold raw milk, many Americans do not know that consuming raw milk and its products poses greater health risks than consuming pasteurized milk and its products, especially for children. Consuming raw milk can expose one to Salmonella, E. coli, Campylobacter, Cryptosporidium, Listeria, and Brucella โ€“ and, potentially, H5N1 bird flu.

Who drinks bird milk anyway?
