It will transfer human to human sooner, than soon.

If we are doing this again, I’m moving to Asia.  They handled this much better.

Before anyone rushes to fear and panic: the important context to keep in mind with this is that the human beings that've been infected with it haven't been infected from proximity, they've been infected by direct contact or especially consumption. This is the same reason that other animals other than birds have been getting it. They're eating things or the waste of things that have already been infected, it isn't just traveling through the air like COVID-19 does. 

 

The risk to humans is still assessed to be low and there is little if anything to suggest that this virus has mutated to the point that animal to human transfer will be able to happen without consumption or contact. It's of course always possible for it to, but we're not at that point at the moment.

On its way to happening. It's only a matter of time
