More info from CDFA about HPAI

The current strains of Bird Flu circulating in the US can infect more than just birds and dairy cows. Wild birds, especially migratory ducks and geese, can spread this virus. This disease is spread through infected animals and contaminated materials.
If you have a cat with outdoor access, they are at risk of being infected by Bird Flu if they eat an infected bird. Reports have also confirmed infections after cats consumed contaminated raw milk and raw pet foods.
Speak to your veterinarian about dietary recommendations. If you're concerned about Bird Flu in your pets, contact your family veterinarian and your local public health department.

From CDFA:

Milk pasteurization is the heating process to remove disease-causing germs. This includes the H5N1 Avian Influenza virus associated with the current outbreak.​

CDC recommends against drinking raw milk contaminated with live (H5N1) virus as a way to develop immunity against the (H5N1) virus. It could make you sick.​

We are not horsing around! Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) has been detected in southern California (Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego Counties). VSV is primarily spread by insects such as gnats, black flies, Culicoides midges, and sand flies. Horses and other livestock species (cattle, small ruminants, camelids, pigs, etc.) infected with VSV usually show clinical signs 2-8 days after exposure to the virus. Clinical signs of VSV can be lesions on the tongue, lips, corners of the mouth, gums, and around the muzzle and nostrils. If you notice any of these signs, please contact your veterinarian or the California Department of Food and Agriculture.
