FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. (KSEE/KGPE) - Bird flu virus has been detected in a retail sample of raw milk from a Fresno-based raw dairy farm, California health officials confirmed Sunday. The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) warned consumers against drinking raw milk after a batch of cream top, whole raw milk from Raw Farm, LLC of Fresno County. Raw Farm has since issued a voluntary recall for all quart and half gallon sized milk products produced on Nov. 9 with an expiration date of Nov. 27 with a lot ID of 20241109. State health officials say no illnesses have been reported with this lot of milk, however, due to the ongoing spread of bird flu in dairy cows, consumers are advised not to drink the affected raw milk. Pasteurized milk is still safe to drink. The CDPH reports they have notified retailers to remove the affected milk from their shelves and urge consumers to return the product immediately. Farmers are advised to contact the California Department of Food and Agriculture’s bird flu hotline at 866-922-2473 if they suspect their animals are infected with bird flu.
