The bird flu virus was detected in a retail sample of raw milk from a dairy in Fresno, California, state health officials said.
The sample obtained at a store tested positive Nov. 21 during routine screening by Santa Clara County health officers, the state Department of Public Health said Sunday.
The dairy, Raw Farm, issued a voluntary recall for one batch of cream top, whole raw milk with a best buy date of Nov. 27.
“Consumers should immediately return any remaining product to the store where it was purchased,” the state health department said in a statement.
Pasteurized milk remains safe to drink, the department said.
On Friday, health officials confirmed bird flu in a California child — the first reported case in a U.S. minor.
The child had mild symptoms, was treated with antiviral medication and is recovering, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.
