Influenza A & B viruses cause up to 710,000 hospitalizations and 52,000 deaths annually in the US. However, research from #UGAVetMed Ph.D student Caroline K. Page predicts that Influenza B—which only infects humans—could be on the brink of disappearing. -- https://t.co/JsHal7LQby

The flu may never go away, but new research from the University of Georgia’s Center for Vaccines and Immunology (CVI) foretells the possible end of influenza B.

Since the outbreak of H5N1, #UGAVetMed has partnered with the @US_FDA to test and secure the nation’s dairy supply. Dr. Mark Tompkins and his team at @CIDER_UGA are working to reduce the threat of avian influenza to human & animal health. -- https://t.co/dp3uaylnOr

While the pasteurization process appears to kill the virus, raw dairy products may pose an infection risk to people.
