AbstractAn outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAI) H5N1 in dairy cattle in the United States has spread to at least 136 dairy herds in 11 states. Due to a lack of testing, it has been difficult to determine the number of farms affected and the extent of intrastate spread. We report a pilot study of real time RT-PCR (rRT-PCR) detection of influenza A virus (IAV) in milk purchased from local markets across Michigan.

A double inhale followed by an extended exhale. I teach my high school students this technique and encourage them to use it next time they’re about to take a test. This breath technique, known as the physiological sigh, is confirmed by scientists to be the quickest and most effective way to calm the body. How? Surprisingly, with your breath, you can change your heart rate. We don’t often think about moderating our own breath, but the heart is innervated and reacts to the slightest change in volume.
