Washington state resident believed to be the first to die from a rare strain of bird flu The person, an older adult from Grays Harbor County with underlying health conditions, was being treated for a bird flu called H5N5 after becoming seemingly the first known human infected by the strain.

H5N5 is not believed to be a greater threat to human health than the H5N1 virus behind a wave of 70 reported human infections in the U.S. in 2024 and 2025. Most of those have been mild illnesses in workers on dairy and poultry farms.

As a girl that grew up watching the Canucks play at the Pacific Coliseum, dreaming of skating on the ice, being the only girl in the neighbourhood that played hockey with the boys... seeing a sold out crowd go insane for a women's team in this building is sure something special.
