State and federal health officials say it appears to be the first known human infection with the H5N5 bird flu virus.<\/p>\n<p>The individual has a mixed backyard flock that was exposed to wild birds, making either the domestic birds or the wild ones the most likely source of infection, the Washington State Department of Health <a href=\"https:\/\/doh.wa.gov\/newsroom\/h5n5-avian-influenza-confirmed-grays-harbor-county-resident\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">said<\/a>. Public health officials are continuing to investigate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It is the nation&#8217;s first human case of bird flu <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/bird-flu-nevada-human-case-dairy-worker-cows\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">since February<\/a><\/span>. The older adult with underlying health conditions remains hospitalized. State health officials had announced the preliminary bird flu diagnosis on Thursday. On Friday, they said it had been confirmed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The H5N5 version is not believed to be a greater threat to human health than the H5N1 virus behind a wave of 70 reported human infections in the U.S. in 2024 and 2025. Most of those have been mild illnesses in workers on dairy and poultry farms. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These viruses behave similarly,&#8221; said Richard Webby, a prominent flu researcher at St. Jude Children&#8217;s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. &#8220;My gut instinct is to consider it the same as H5N1 from a human health perspective.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Friday issued a similar statement that said no information would suggest &#8220;the risk to public health has increased as a result of this case.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The agency is awaiting a specimen from Washington to conduct additional testing. <\/p>\n<p>The distinction between H5N5 and H5N1 lies in a protein involved in releasing the virus from an infected cell and promoting spread to surrounding cells.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Think along the lines of different brands of car tires. They both do the same job, it&#8217;s just each is better tuned for specific conditions, which we don&#8217;t fully understand,&#8221; Webby wrote in an email to The Associated Press.<\/p>\n<p>H5N5 may have a different preference for which kind of birds it most readily infects, he added.<\/p>\n<p>Bird flu has been detected in a variety of bird populations since January 2022, and in March of last year, it was found in dairy cows for the first time.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bird flu can infect birds as well as mammals, including pigs, cattle and\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/fda-cats-dead-sickened-bird-flu-raw-pet-food\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">cats<\/a><\/span>. People can also get infected when they come into close contact with infected animals, which is why farm workers are at high risk for infection.\u00a0<\/p>\n<section
