First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether drinking pasteurized milk containing harmless, inactive flu virus particles could lead to a positive flu test from a nose or throat swab. Researchers want to help the CDC improve how flu is tracked. About 30 healthy adults aged 18-64 will drink the milk and provide samples to see if the virus shows up or if their body makes antibodies.
