Bird flu virus was detected in a retail sample of raw milk from the Raw Farm dairy of Fresno County, state health officials said Sunday.
No illnesses associated with this lot of cream top raw milk have been reported, the California Department of Public Health said.
The company has recalled the product. Out of an abundance of caution, and due to the ongoing spread of bird flu, consumers should not consume any of the affected raw milk, the department said in a press release. Consumers should immediately return any remaining product to the store where it was purchased.
The milk has lot code 20241109 with a Best By date of 11/27/2024 on the package, the department said.
Bird flu symptoms include cough, sore throat, diarrhea, vomiting, headaches, fever and other cold- and flu-like unpleasantness.
