Seasonal influenza activity remains elevated and continues to increase across the country
Yes, there is currently an ongoing outbreak of bird flu (avian influenza) in the United States and other parts of the world.
Key points:

It has affected wild birds, poultry farms, and dairy farms in multiple countries.
Cases have been reported in humans, mainly in people who have direct contact with infected birds or their droppings.
The risk to the general public is considered low, but people who work with poultry or live near infected farms should take precautions.
Health authorities are monitoring the situation and taking steps to prevent the spread of the virus.
The Texas Department of State Health Services is reporting an outbreak of measles in Gaines County. At this time, 24 cases have been identified with symptom onset within the last two weeks. Nine of the patients have been hospitalized. All of the cases are unvaccinated and residents of Gaines County. Due to the highly contagious nature of this disease, additional cases are likely to occur in Gaines County and the surrounding communities. DSHS is working with South Plains Public Health District and Lubbock Public Health to investigate the outbreak.
