Officials: San Francisco child presumptively tests positive for bird flu
SAN FRANCISCO — Public health officials say a San Francisco child has presumptively tested positive for H5N1 bird flu.
The San Francisco Department of Health said that the child, who experienced fever and conjunctivitis symptoms, has since fully recovered and there is low risk to the public.
“I want to assure everyone in our city that the risk to the general public is low, and there is no current evidence that the virus can be transmitted between people,” said Dr. Grant Colfax, director of health.
