JUST IN: The second human case of bird flu associated with the current outbreak has been confirmed in Michigan, health officials said. This is the third case ever reported in the U.S. MORE: The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services said the case was identified in a farmworker who had regular exposure to livestock infected with bird flu.

The farmworker experienced mild symptoms and has since recovered.

SNIP The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said the Michigan dairy worker was being monitored because of their work exposure to infected cattle and reported symptoms to local health officials. A nasal specimen tested negative for influenza virus at the state health department laboratory while an eye specimen was sent to CDC for testing, which confirmed bird flu infection.

MDHHS said the farm worker has since recovered and it will not be releasing any additional identifying information about the farmworker.SNIP

Symptoms were mild, just red eyes. So there's nothing to be too concerned about yet. But if it makes the big leap, could be trouble. Old folks like me could be vulnerable.
