At least three human avian flu cases have been reported since 2024 among people in the United States who own backyard chickens. On this week's "HealthLink on Air,” Dr. Elizabeth Asiago-Reddy discusses ways to protect yourself and your flock, and why bird flu is such a concern. She is Upstate’s chief of infectious disease.
Also on the show, Dr. Joseph Strayhorn, a psychiatrist, explains the various skills one needs in order to be mentally healthy, which are outlined in a new textbook he co-authored about psychoeducation. Strayhorn is a clinical assistant professor in Upstate’s department of psychiatry. He also directs the nonprofit Organization for Psychoeducational Tutoring.
