As the H5N1 bird flu continues to spread globally among different mammals, the World Health Organization's chief scientist, Jeremy Farrar, is warning that the risk to humans remains an "enormous concern."

That comes just weeks after a case was reported in a human in Texas who had recent contact with dairy cows. The virus itself has been circulating since 1996, with the most recent outbreak starting in 2020.

As Global’s Sean Previl reports, at this time there is a very low risk for humans and no need to change their day-to-day activities, but there are still precautions that can be taken globally.
