Arizona agricultural officials say they now have the first detection of H5N1 avian influenza in milk produced by a dairy herd within the state.

Before future studies would uncover a link between Nipah outbreaks and the felling of native forests for the purposes of fruit plantations, more than 1 million pigs are culled to quell an outbreak that leads to the deaths of 105 people.

H5N1 bird flu is branching out. New data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that a second type of H5N1 has likely spread from dairy cows to humans.
