Bird flu will show up as influenza A, and unless the genomic is done on a sample, we don’t know if it is the “seasonal” flu A or bird or bovine flu. It seems infection from dairy cattle has not sent anyone to the hospital, but avian flu has, and it is well known to kill 50% of people who get it. The teenager in Canada had bird flu and was in ICU, intubated and went on ECMO to try and save their life. The gentleman in Louisiana was in the ICU and did die.

Call hospitals and ask if they have a charity or indigent clinic that can help with medication costs, apply for patient assistance programs (google medication name and that to see) or write the company and hope you reach someone who is willing to help. I got a years worth of medication from Bayer a few years ago emailing them. They sent the medication to my Dr and I just picked it up from her office. No appt needed.
