Opinion: Why the New Human Case of Bird Flu Is So Alarming and the need for better monitoring

The solutions to this brewing crisis — such as comprehensive testing — have been there all along, and they’re becoming only more important. If we keep ignoring the warning signs we have only ourselves to blame.
