Political Turmoil Slows Bird Flu Control

The new administration's focus on budget cuts has unfortunately slowed down the fight against the spreading bird flu virus.

This has resulted in the virus spreading to over a thousand cattle herds across seventeen states within just one year.

The government's actions, including staff cuts and limited information sharing, are hindering efforts to control the outbreak.

Scientists are worried that this lack of a coordinated response could have severe consequences, potentially leading to a far worse situation.
