The United Farm Workers union says dairy workers in Washington State's Yakima Valley have symptoms consistent with avian influenza but have not been tested. Yakima Health District has confirmed three human H5N1 infections in the county, including one fatal case reported November 1.
Undetected infections in dairy herds could signal wider spread of H5N1 among cattle, raising the risk of further herd disruption and milk supply concerns. The union has offered no lab-confirmed figures, so the price impact is speculative.
