CDC says no ‘clear source’ of bird flu infection in Missouri patient

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are investigating a Missouri patient who tested positive for the bird flu virus, despite no known contact with poultry or dairy cows. The patient showed symptoms like chest pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and weakness, but was not severely ill. Officials are still unsure of the source of the infection and are conducting detailed interviews with the patient to gather more information. So far, there have been no additional cases and no evidence of person-to-person transmission. The risk to the general population is considered low, and officials are continuing to monitor the situation closely.
