NEW YORK (AP) — A Michigan farmworker has been diagnosed with bird flu in what is the second human case associated with an outbreak in U.S. dairy cows. Michigan health officials say the person experienced mild symptoms. Officials say the person had been in contact with infected livestock, and the risk to the public remains low. A Texas farmworker was diagnosed in late March under similar circumstances. Officials called that the first known instance globally of a person catching this version of bird flu from a mammal.
