Biosecurity measures for H5N1 bird flu in U.S.

Confirmation that a dangerous strain of H5N1 avian influenza is circulating among livestock in some U.S. states has forced health authorities to promote biosecurity measures for farmers to try to monitor the so-called "high alert" situation; in fact, the question is whether cows are getting infected what the next species leap could be. The possibility that after cows and pigs it could be the turn of humans with a variant that adapts to infect human organisms could only be a matter of time, so surveillance should be increased. It is worth mentioning changing the subject but remaining on health issues the recent appeal in Italy to prevent a decrease in funding to support the entire sector related to the health of citizens which lately finds itself with increasingly scarce resources and personnel.
