From the Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD): Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1, a type of bird flu, is a virus primarily spread by birds that can also be transmitted on vehicles, by people, and other means. HPAI causes illness in poultry, dairy cows, livestock, and other wildlife. While risk to humans is low, poultry, dairy, and livestock farm workers may be at higher risk due to potential exposures to infected animals or contaminated materials at work. Below are links to printable general resources about HPAI and what you can do to help stop the spread. For more information and to stay up-to-date, visit: https://www.michigan.gov/birdflu
