The patient was experiencing "flu-like symptoms" and had "health conditions that can make people more vulnerable to illness," Wyoming's health department said. She was likely exposed to the H5N1 virus through direct contact to an infected poultry flock at her home.

A new case of what's called Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza, or HPAI, has been found in Boulder County. The infection was discovered in a goose at a private residence in Louisville.
