Preliminary results of tests run by the Food and Drug Administration show that pasteurization is working to kill off bird flu in milk, the agency said Friday. 'This additional testing did not detect any live, infectious virus. These results reaffirm our assessment that the commercial milk supply is safe,' the FDA said in a statement.
While health authorities have said that milk from visibly sick cows is being discarded before entering the supply chain, officials have acknowledged the possibility that cows could be spreading the virus in their raw milk without symptoms or after they have otherwise appeared to recover.The FDA said it had also tested several samples of retail powdered infant formula and toddler formula, which the agency said were all negative for the virus. It is unclear what other foods the FDA has tested.
