Tables of COVID-19 Testing Data, Hospital Use, and Case Demographics View Wastewater Testing Data People infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 may shed it in the water that flows from their homes to public wastewater systems. This happens whether they have symptoms or not. Communities can track virus activity by looking for viral RNA in wastewater. Wastewater, or sewage, includes water that may contain human waste (toilets, showers, sinks). It also includes water from some other sources (rainwater, water for industrial use). To better understand the burden of COVID-19 in a community, Maine CDC and US CDC test wastewater for the virus. This helps to tailor public health actions to protect communities across the state.

Avian influenza confirmed in wild birds in Florida Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission sent this bulletin at 02/22/2022 02:41 PM EST For immediate release: Feb. 22, 2022 Contacts: Kelly Richmond, [email protected] Carly Jones, [email protected] Suggested Tweet: The @MyFWC continues to monitor for #HPAI in wild birds as cases are confirmed in #Florida: https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/FLFFWCC/bulletins/30bcda6 #bird Avian influenza confirmed in wild birds in Florida The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has been notified by the National Veterinary Services Laboratory of confirmed cases of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) strain: H5 2.3.4.4 in a lesser scaup, black vultures and other avian species. There is a low risk of HPAI transmission to humans and, to date, there have been no known human infections in North America. The FWC is currently investigating bird mortalities in Brevard, Indian River and Volusia counties believed to be caused by HPAI. This strain has been documented in the United States since 2021 and was detected in hunter-harvested blue-winged teal in Palm Beach County in January 2022. To prevent the spread of HPAI, the public should avoid handling sick or dead wildlife, prohibit the contact of domestic birds with wild birds, and report wild bird mortalities to FWC so deaths can be investigated. Please be advised that because HPAI is not treatable and is easily transmitted in wild birds, some wildlife rehabbers may not be accepting these animals at this time. The FWC is working closely with the United States Department of Agriculture-Wildlife Services, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, University of Florida, National Wildlife Health Center, Southeastern Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study, Florida Department of Health, and wildlife rehabilitators to investigate mortality events involving wild birds.

FWC investigating new strain of avian flu in wild birds in Central Florida Published February 22, 2022 4:31PM Florida FOX 35 Orlando LAKE MARY, Fla. - The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) says cases of avian influenza, or "bird flu," have been detected in Central Florida. The highly contagious H5N1 Eurasian strain has killed birds in Brevard, Indian River, and Volusia counties, FWC says. This comes about a month after samples collected from a hunter-harvested blue-winged teal in Palm Beach County tested positive for the strain. Cases of avian influenza have also been reported in Kentucky, Maine, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Canada. Bird flu can cause high mortality rates among birds. In 2015, 50 million birds across 15 states died due to an outbreak, costing the federal government nearly $1 billion. Outbreaks of bird flu have occurred in Asia, Africa, North America, and parts of Europe. This H5N1 Eurasian strain has been documented in Europe since early 2021. No known human infections with Eurasian H5 viruses have occurred in the United States, officials say. Most people who have developed symptoms of bird flu have had close contact with sick birds, health officials say. Because of the recent discoveries of the H5N1 Eurasian strain in Central Florida, the Audubon Center for Birds of Prey is not accepting any injured or orphaned birds of prey. "The HPAI strain has been known to infect birds (including raptors) and some mammals, especially in rehabilitation situations," the center said in a statement. "At this time there appears to be a low risk of infection to humans, however, exposure is possible, especially those in wildlife rehabilitation." Signs and symptoms with human infection Signs and symptoms of bird flu may begin within two to seven days of infection, depending on the type. In most cases, they resemble those of conventional influenza, including: Cough Fever Sore throat Muscle aches Headache Shortness of breath Some people also experience nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea. And in a few cases, a mild eye infection (conjunctivitis) is the only indication of the disease. Ways to help prevent HPAI spread Report bird mortalities so die-offs can be investigated and tested. Prevent contact of domestic or captive birds with wild birds (especially waterfowl). Do not handle sick/dead wildlife. If it is necessary to do so then wear impermeable gloves, wash hands with soap and water, and change clothing before having any contact with healthy domestic poultry and birds. Hunters and others handling birds should follow the routine precautions listed below when handling wild birds. Undercooked poultry meat or eggs from infected birds can transmit bird flu. Poultry meat is safe to eat if it's been cooked to an internal temperature of 165 F (74 C). Eggs should be cooked until the yolks and whites are firm.
