Drinking raw milk containing bird flu is not the only way one can become infected, officials say. Someone can become infected if they touch their eyes, nose or mouth with unwashed hands after touching raw milk with bird flu.
Symptoms include eye redness or discharge, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, diarrhea, vomiting, muscle or body aches, headaches, fatigue, trouble breathing and fever.
California has reported 29 confirmed human cases of bird flu since October, with 28 of those cases coming from direct contact with infected dairy cows. A California child was confirmed the first U.S. child to become infected with bird flu.
