And I quote, "The Missouri case was detected through routine flu season surveillance. The patient had underlying medical conditions, and received flu antiviral medications.". In other words, the person came in, was treated, and went home. Like EVERY OTHER seasonal illness. Probably wasn't even bird flu.

if animals were not involved is that not community spread? how many cases might be being missed 🤔
