Vet Worker in Los Angeles Caught H5N1 Bird Flu From Infected Cat

The person tested positive for antibodies to H5N1 months after handling a cat infected with the virus. Though the person never experienced symptoms, the case shows that H5N1 and other bird flus can reach humans in more ways than one.

“These findings provide evidence of zoonotic transmission of influenza A(H5N1) virus from domestic cats to humans,” the authors wrote in their paper, published in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
