Raw milk can carry germs or viruses such as the H5N1 virus, which can make people very sick. Drinking or handling raw milk can be risky for anyone, including dairy workers, because the H5N1 bird flu virus can spread from infected cows. 

Traditional drinks made with raw milk, like pajarete, are important in many cultures and traditions, but they can present a health risk because raw milk may carry the H5N1 virus. 

Learn more about how raw milk can spread the H5N1 virus in drinks such as pajarete with the following multilingual social media/WhatsApp resources from the California Department of Public Health: 

Suggested CDPH Messaging:​​ ​The bird flu virus and other harmful germs can be found in raw milk and could make you very sick. Mixing raw milk with alcohol does not provide the same protection as pasteurization. Neither will lighting the alcohol on fire. Harmful bacteria and viruses may still be present.  

Pasteurization is the process of heating foods like milk to kill the bird flu virus and other harmful germs.  

To protect yourself and your family, choose pasteurized milk.

Suggested CDPH Messaging:​​ El virus de la gripe aviar y otros gérmenes dañinos pueden encontrarse en la leche cruda (leche bronca) y causar enfermedades graves. Mezclar leche cruda con alcohol no ofrece la misma protección que la pasteurización.

Tampoco lo hará prender fuego al alcohol. Es posible que aún haya bacterias y virus dañinos.  

La pasteurización es el proceso de calentar alimentos como la leche para matar el virus de la gripe aviar y otros gérmenes dañinos.   

¡Elige leche pasteurizada para la seguridad de tu salud y la de tu familia!
