“Somehow, the U.S. is both over- and under-reacting to bird flu and other pressing infectious threats.”
Great to talk to Katherine J. Wu, Ph.D. about H5N1 as well as our approach to infectious disease threats in general. theatlantic.com/health/archive…
There are reports out of Ranchi, India of 8 human H5N1 cases: 6 poultry farm workers & 2 doctors (which is of particular concern if accurate as canaries of H2H spread)
Clusters of limited H2H H5N1 spread are not unheard of: v. different to sustained H2H.

1/ Are you struggling to keep track of all the #H5N1 developments in the US?
Together w/ Brennan Klein & Moritz Kraemer, we started an open-access timeline of key events related to the outbreak.
As you can see, the situation is rapidly progressing, so we will keep updating.
Join me, CEID Faculty Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH Boston University School of Public Health, John Connor NEIDL, as well as Alessandro Vespignani Northeastern U. in a little under two weeks to have conversation about the state of science and public health response, and ask us all the questions on your mind about #H5N1 !
