CHICAGO, Jan 23 (Reuters) – U.S. health agencies including the CDC this week canceled meetings with external groups, paused some public health publications and told employees to freeze travel after directives from the Department of Health and Human Services, two sources familiar with the situation said. On Wednesday, a state/federal call scheduled for Thursday involving states affected by H5N1 bird flu in dairy cattle and other animals was canceled, one of the sources said. It also postponed a training session for public health practitioners, the source said.
