Marin County health officials say a child with a suspected bird flu infection drank raw milk before getting sick.
Officials say the child experienced symptoms, including a fever and vomiting, after drinking the potentially contaminated milk. The child has recovered, and no other family members have gotten sick.
This case is one of two human infections being investigated in the Bay Area, as officials are still working to understand how another child in Alameda County fell ill. The Centers for Disease Control has ruled out raw milk as a source but has not yet identified how this child was exposed.
