3 farm workers cleaning up an infected poultry farm were infected by the 
Dairy virus.  Where the Dairy virus goes poultry flocks start to go 
down.  In Michigan they found that some dairy workers at infected farms 
also worked at poultry farms, and around twice as many had close 
contacts that worked on poultry farms (17%).  They have known from Texas 
with the first poultry flock to go down with the Dairy virus that humans 
likely took the virus onto the poultry farm.  They tried to blame 
equipment because the virus is not infective off skin and clothing for 
more than half an hour, but can remain infective on a solid surface for 
24 hours.  An infected person shedding virus is obviously the bests 
means to infect the poultry flock and other dairy herds that did not get 
infected cattle.  They already had an example of an infected dairy 
worker shedding virus in Texas, so it seemed obvious that infected 
humans were taking the virus to poultry farms by the time all the flocks 
in Michigan began to go down, but the USDA and CDC have been in willful 
denial mode.

Infected humans have been transferring the virus to Dairy herds in 
states that did not get cattle, and have been infecting poultry flocks 
with the dairy virus.  The work determining how many dairy workers have 
been infected has never been done at this time, but everyone knows that 
more than 4 is not just likely but a given.  Only 61 dairy workers have 
been tested of those 61 the CDC admits that over half were not tested 
correctly (only nasal swabs when most of the positive cases have been 
negative for nasal swabs but positive for eye swabs).  There has been no 
attempt to identify all the infected herds in order to limit the 
infection and human contacts.

The willful stupidity is likely politically driven.  Instead of trying 
to prevent the next pandemic the CDC has decided to monitor all states 
for influenza activity, and if there is an increase in influenza cases 
they will act.  This is so tragically lame.  Instead of prevent the 
virus from evolving into a pandemic virus they will try to contain the 
issue after it becomes an issue in the human population.  Colorado 
demonstrates how stupid this strategy is.  The dairy worker infected in 
Colorado had respiratory symptoms.  The poultry workers had eye 
infections, but some of them also had respiratory symptoms.  The virus 
can obviously infect humans whether it comes from cows or birds, and in 
Colorado it is becoming a respiratory infection.  They need to identify 
all the infected herds and now poultry flocks in Colorado and quarantine 
the herds and farm workers.

The more herds infected the more humans will be infected, the more 
chance that the virus will evolve into a pandemic virus.  Willful 
stupidity should not be allowed to continue.
