USDA says genetic sequencing revealed the mystery illness impacting Texas dairies is the same strain of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) that's been in the U.S. The virus is carried by wild waterfowl.
I meant now that they have identified the mystery illness as the highly pathogenic avian flu, it’s not surprising that it has moved into the US. It has been in South America for several seasons, and avian flu can be carried by migratory birds. It was only a matter of time until it spread like this.

Unfortunate, but not surprising.
