Another dairy farm in California confirmed (total 336).  3 more 
commercial poultry farms went down in California.  Everyone should know 
by now that they get infected by dairy workers that also work on poultry 
farms.

Hawaii, Minnesota, and Washington have more poultry outbreaks.  They 
need to sequence to determine if it is the dairy virus.  Minnesota 
should know by now that they have infected herds because multiple 
poultry farms have gone down with the dairy virus, but they won't test 
their herds.  Where do these guys think that the virus comes from?

4 states that the USDA wasn't going to test by bulk milk tank testing 
are going to test their dairy herds.  Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Oklahoma, 
and Massachusettes.  Massachusettes may already know that the infection 
did not get into their state.  I recall that they claimed that they were 
going to test over a month ago.  Oklahoma already had some positive 
herds, but didn't test after the first couple of positives.  Arkansas 
was on the first FDA list of states producing positive milk products 
back in May, and they may finally be testing.

More detections in wild birds, but they likely need to confirm what 
virus infected them.
