Cinco trabajadores de una granja avícola en el noreste de Colorado han dado positivo para la gripe aviar, informó el Departamento de Salud Pública estatal el 14 de julio. Esto eleva el número conocido de casos en Estados Unidos a nueve. Es probable que las cinco personas se infectaran por manipular pollos, a los que se les había encargado sacrificar en respuesta a un brote de gripe aviar en esa granja. Más de 99 millones de pollos y pavos se han infectado con una cepa altamente patógena de la gripe aviar que surgió en las granjas avícolas del país a principios de 2022. Desde entonces, el gobie...

Five people who work at a poultry farm in northeastern Colorado have tested positive for the bird flu, the Colorado public health department reported July 14. This brings the known number of U.S. cases to nine. The five people were likely infected by chickens, which they had been tasked with killing in response to a bird flu outbreak at the farm. More than 99 million chickens and turkeys have been infected with a highly pathogenic strain of the bird flu that emerged at U.S. poultry farms in early 2022. Since then, the federal government has compensated poultry farmers more than $1 billion for ...

Colorado se encuentra entre los 10 estados que han desafiliado a la mayor proporción de beneficiarios de Medicaid desde que el gobierno de Estados Unidos levantara una restricción de la pandemia sobre la eliminación de afiliados al programa médico. Es el único estado demócrata entre un grupo de estados republicanos con altas tasas de desafiliación, que incluye a Idaho, Montana, Texas y Utah, en un proceso de Medicaid que comenzó en la primavera de 2023. Colorado también es el único estado que tenía todos los ingredientes políticos para amortiguar las consecuencias de este proceso, según analis...

Colorado stands out among the 10 states that have disenrolled the highest share of Medicaid beneficiaries since the U.S. government lifted a pandemic-era restriction on removing people from the health insurance program. It’s the only blue state in a cluster of red states with high disenrollment rates — a group that includes Idaho, Montana, Texas, and Utah — in the Medicaid “unwinding” underway since spring 2023. Colorado also is the only state that had all the policy ingredients in place to cushion the fallout from the unwinding, according to Medicaid policy analysts at KFF. But it seems the c...

As bird flu spreads among dairy cattle in the U.S., veterinarians and researchers have taken note of Finland’s move to vaccinate farmworkers at risk of infection. They wonder why their government doesn’t do the same. “Farmworkers, veterinarians, and producers are handling large volumes of milk that can contain high levels of bird flu virus,” said Kay Russo, a livestock and poultry veterinarian in Fort Collins, Colorado. “If a vaccine seems to provide some immunity, I think it should be offered to them.” Among a dozen virology and outbreak experts interviewed by KFF Health News, most agree with...

A medida que la gripe aviar se propaga entre las vacas lecheras en Estados Unidos, veterinarios e investigadores han tomado nota de la decisión de Finlandia de vacunar a los trabajadores agrícolas que corren el riesgo de infectarse. Y se preguntan por qué su gobierno no se hace lo mismo. “Los trabajadores agrícolas, veterinarios y productores están manejando grandes volúmenes de leche que pueden contener altos niveles del virus de la gripe aviar”, dijo Kay Russo, veterinaria de ganado y aves de corral en Fort Collins, Colorado. “Si una vacuna parece proporcionar algo de inmunidad, creo que tam...

Deloitte, a global consultancy that reported revenue last year of $65 billion, pulls in billions of dollars from states and the federal government for supplying technology it says will modernize Medicaid. The company promotes itself as the industry leader in building sophisticated and efficient systems for states that, among other things, screen who is eligible for Medicaid. However, a California Healthline investigation of eligibility systems found widespread problems. The systems have generated incorrect notices to Medicaid beneficiaries, sent their paperwork to the wrong addresses, and been...

Pronto a los consumidores podría no preocuparles que las deudas médicas afecten sus puntajes de crédito, bajo las regulaciones federales propuestas recientemente por la Oficina de Protección Financiera del Consumidor (CFPB). Si se promulgan, estas reglas ampliarían drásticamente las protecciones para decenas de millones de estadounidenses agobiados por facturas médicas que no pueden pagar. Las regulaciones también cumplirían con una promesa de la administración Biden de abordar el flagelo de la deuda de atención médica, un problema que se presenta solo en Estados Unidos y que afecta a unas 100...
