unpasteurized

In one case, a worker who wasn’t employed on a farm but transported unpasteurized milk between farms reported conjunctivitis.

Now, a small but growing number of house cats have gotten sick from H5N1, the bird flu strain driving the current U.S. outbreak, after eating raw food or drinking unpasteurized milk.

“What is rarely discussed are the health risks associated with consuming unpasteurized milk.”

In late November 2024, however, California regulators recalled two batches of raw, unpasteurized milk from a Fresno dairy farm after bird flu virus was detected in the milk.

However, they have urged people not to drink raw, unpasteurized milk.
