Hi again #Mastodon!
I joined the fediverse when a lot of my community had not migrated from the bird site, so could only partially reconstruct it here using automated tools. If I followed you there and don’t here, say hi and let’s reconnect!

For those who don’t know me, I am a #virologist by training with almost 20 years of experience as a #science #editor, a passion for #microbiology and all science really, #OpenScience #openaccess & people

Have a lovely day everyone

#introduction #fediverse

At the end of May, #NewYorkTimes reporter Emily Anthes accompanied #StJude #virologists on their yearly trek to #DelawareBay in #NewJersey to document their collection of #birdpoop. #Virologist Dr. Robert Webster, now St. Jude emeritus faculty, started going to the area in 1985. “Delaware Bay has turned into an influenza gold mine,” he says. “And we will continue to mine that gold mine until we’ve found the answers.” Follow their journey. http://bit.ly/3IVn1AA #FluResearch

Coughs & sneezes spread diseases.
Are fish & shrimp immune to the sniffles, then? 🐠🦐

We took a deep dive into this question with our expert & #veterinary #virologist Hans Nauwynck!

#Flu & other infections pose risks to people w/compromised immune systems, especially #pediatriccancer patients. #StJude has been a global leader in #fluresearch since #virologist Dr Robert Webster came in 1968. From his initial studies, we were designated a #WorldHealthOrganization Collaborating Centre for Studies on Ecology of #Influenza in Animals & Birds in 1975. Drs Richard Webby & Stacey Schultz-Cherry now lead the center. We work with 6 other #WHO Global centers. https://lnkd.in/gcptCHf2

“#Scientists maintain that the risk of sustained spread among people is very low, but each detection of the virus in something warm-blooded and furry hints that the #virus is improving its ability to infiltrate new hosts. “Every time that happens, it’s another chance for that virus to make the changes that it needs,” says #RichardWebby, a #virologist at #StJudeChildrens #Research. “… this virus is a kid in a candy store.””

Bird flu outbreak in #mink sparks concern about spread in people

The new variant puts #birdflu in “uncharted territory”, says Wendy Puryear, a #virologist at Tufts University.
Researchers have warned that, unless careful precautions are taken, the #disease might eventually spread among people.

Germany has an esteemed #virologist opining on the possibility of serious post-Covid immune dysfunction [#PCID] in children.

We have Alasdair Fucking Munro.

Hardly seems fair.

I’m a day late but it’s still Friday somewhere- here’s my #FollowFriday this week. It’s @mackayim2022 who’s an interesting bloke - he works as a #virologist & knows stuff about #covid

@fergabell That's complete gaslighting, and a shame if no german #virologist reacts to that.

Ever wonder why the holidays are peak #flu season in the Northern Hemisphere? It's not because viruses are a bunch of Scrooges and Grinches! In our latest episode, we talk with Erin Deans, a #virologist, about the flu. We talk about its history, why there's a new vaccine every year, and how researchers are trying to make better #vaccines. Maybe one day you won't have to worry about catching the flu on your holiday travels! Listen here: https://www.podbean.com/ew/pb-599gp-1340aad or wherever you get #podcasts

Ik interviewde de Vlaamse viroloog Marc Van Ranst voor het tijdschrift Arts & Auto. Een gesprek over - natuurlijk - het coronavirus en de pandemie, maar ook onderwerpen als zijn opstelling in het maatschappelijk debat, de bedreigingen die hij krijgt en zijn veranderde mensbeeld komen aan bod.
