U.S. health officials say samples of pasteurized milk have tested positive for remnants of the bird flu virus that has infected dairy cows.

FILE - Cows are seen at a dairy in California on Wednesday, Nov. 23, 2016. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Tuesday that samples of pasteurized milk had tested positive for remnants of the bird flu virus that has infected dairy cows.

The announcement comes nearly a month after an avian influenza virus that has sickened millions of wild and commercial birds in recent years was detected in U.S. dairy cows in at least eight states. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says nearly 33 herds have been affected to date.
