Has the Next Pandemic Already Begun?

We are living through the largest avian influenza outbreak in U.S. history. Since arriving in 2022, H5N1 bird flu has left more than 155 million birds dead on U.S. farms and spread to cattle herds in more than 15 states. The virus has caused mass mortality events in wildlife and infected more than four dozen species of mammals, including humans. Join us for a critical discussion with leading researchers and experts who will explore the science behind the current outbreak, its potential impact on human health, and the systems of animal production that contribute to disease risk. This event will also feature NPR Reporter William Stone, who has been working to cover the outbreak across a rapidly-changing policy and media landscape. Don’t miss this timely and crucial conversation.
