Scientists concerned about transmission of bird flu to cows

Season 2024 Episode 137 | 7m 47s

As H5N1 continues to jump into mammals, many scientists are concerned that we’re not watching closely enough as this virus spreads. William Brangham reports. A warning: This story contains scenes of animals in distress.
