''We suspect that direct #HPAI #transmission between #sealions could be occurring, rather than independent #spillovers into sea lions from #avian sources, but additional sequence data and analysis will be required to further characterise mammal-to-mammal transmission.''

"Innovators deciding on how much to invest in R&D will generally spend less money than is socially optimal, because their decisions typically do not include the possibility that the result will create shoulders for others to stand on. That, too, calls for #subsidies".

Everything everywhere all at once: responding to #multiple #GlobalShocks Speech by Fabio Panetta, Member of the Executive Board of the #ECB, at a panel on “Global shocks, policy #spillovers and geo-strategic risks: how to coordinate policies” at The ECB and its Watchers XXIII Conference https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/key/date/2023/html/ecb.sp230322_2~af38beedf3.en.html #FinancialStability #GlobalFinancialSystem #SystemicRisk #spilloveres #GobalShocks #BankLoans #MonetaryPolicy

How long did it take us to discover that #HIV first infected humans half a century before western scientists noticed it?
As in the current dominant #HIV1 strain first went from chimps to humans in about the #1920s
There's been multiple #spillover events from multiple species, so this has probably been happening for 1000s of years? (but older #spillovers didn't get far because it's not very contagious)

We present findings from a study of the local-economy impacts of #Lesotho Child Grants Programme and of a multi-faceted rural development project, known as SPRINGS. We simulate the direct and indirect impacts of the two interventions, considering income and production #spillovers
8) How to realize the #FDI potential? What's needed 4 #FDI is similar to what's needed 4 #domestic #investment.
Think #investment #policy as a cycle: attract, retain, & ensure it links w/ rest of the economy 4 high #spillovers.

5) b- does more #FDI increase #productivity of other local firms (ie: #spillovers) ? Yes, but not by much.
Small vertical #spillovers from #services, benefitting the least productive local firms most.

10) But why r #FDI #spillovers limited? Answer needs more research, but 1 hyp is: most #FDI in #Pakistan focuses on exploiting rents in domestic market, not building efficiency enhancing platforms. Incentives matter.

6) Should #FDI be promoted? If there are #spillovers, consider it, yes. Just like any #investment with #spillovers. Not with distortionary gifts but w/ #investment facilitation. Is there evidence on spillovers from FDI in #Pakistan?

Loved learning more about this incredibly detailed research: Scientists studying found flying foxes found that they shed much more #Hendra virus when they were starving – their search for food pushed them closer to humans and livestock
This combination set the stage for a surge in spillover events, where pathogens jump to other animals or humans. And it allows experts to predict when #spillovers will happen: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/why-hungry-bats-could-start-next-pandemic/ #onehealth #bats #australia
