Two more bird flu cases reported in Colorado, but elsewhere a study finds no asymptomatic infections
NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. health officials on Friday announced two more bird flu cases among farmworkers, but they also said a new study in Michigan suggested the virus is not causing silent infections in people. Last month, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services launched a study of workers who were around cows sickened by the bird flu. The researchers drew blood from 35 people. One goal was to determine if there were people who never had any symptoms but did have evidence of past infections. None of the blood testing showed antibodies that would indicate such infections, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported on Friday. Meanwhile, two more infections tied to a Colorado poultry farm were reported, bringing the total to six. It’s the largest outbreak of human bird flu infections in U.S. history, and accounts for most of the 11 cases reported to date. Ten of those cases occurred this year, all among farmworkers and all with mild symptoms.

Michigan Pro Ultimate Frisbee Team Wins First Game In 7 Years
I remember the first time I was introduced to ultimate frisbee in elementary school, I told my gym teacher that it was a knock off football. That may have been because I wasn't too good at throwing the frisbee yet, but I definitely was one of the better receivers in the class. Nonetheless, I had no idea how big of sport ultimate frisbee actually was or how fun it could be when taken seriously.
