‘Do Not Eat’ Warning Issued to Americans About Eggs: Ex-FDA Food Chief Sounds Alarm Over H5N1.

Sharing is Caring!

A former FDA food safety expert is urging Americans to change their cooking and grocery habits amid a growing bird flu outbreak on US dairy farms.

California recorded its sixth case of bird flu in dairy farmers in just three weeks and 11 more livestock herds have been affected by the virus, bringing the total to 90.

While there have been no official cases of the H5N1 virus infecting people through food, officials could not rule it out in one isolated case in Missouri earlier this year.

In light of this, ex-government food tester Dr Darin Detwiler told DailyMail.com people should begin making some dietary changes.

He said raw eggs pose the biggest risk, so popular breakfast items like soft-boiled eggs, poached eggs, or dishes like eggs Benedict should be avoided all together.
