A website undergoing maintenance led me to a site I don't normally visit instead just to check on some information and that had some content about #YellowFever which made me wonder whether we'd need the #vaccination for next month's #travel plans. And it turns out that oh yes, we definitely will, and I'm bloody glad we spotted that so can book a jab and get a certificate. That was lucky.

The September issue of The Lancet Microbe is now online:

The journal is #OpenAccess 🔓, so you are free to explore all of its content, but these hashtags offer a flavour:

On a tenuously related note, a recent paper in The Lancet Microbe:

Today in Labor History July 12, 1878: A yellow fever epidemic began in New Orleans, leading to the deaths of 5,000 people. 40,000 people fled the city (20% of the population), spreading the disease throughout the Mississippi Valley. 5,000 more people died in Memphis. Trade was completely halted, resulting in mass starvation and riots. Thousands more died in the state of Mississippi. Private business interests prevented reporting on the epidemic, contributing to its spread and mortality throughout the lower Mississippi basin. Citywide quarantines were implemented in many affected cities, including New Orleans and Memphis. The plague finally ended in October, when lower temperatures drove off the mosquitoes that carried the disease.

2015-2022 phylodynamics provided proof of directionality connecting the endemic Amazon to the South East. We identify municipalities with high likelihood of spillover & low vaccination, that border urban centres & should be targeted for catch-up #vaccination.

Collaborative work with a large number of local & international researchers, epidemiologists, public health policy makers, ecologists & zoologists.

When US President Kennedy dared the United States, “before this decade is out, of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to Earth,” #NASA was given expanded facilities occupying almost all of #MerrittIsland, which was a #swamp at the time. It took years of effort, and even more years of person-hour labor, to eradicate the #mosquitoes (and the #YellowFever) to complete the #ApolloProgram and send two men to the Moon and returned both and their rideshare safely to the #Earth.
When the #SpaceShuttle followed on, it continued to launch from the world’s most advanced #spaceport. And it landed there, as #Endeavour did after STS-134.
#SLS and #Orion will again send humans to the Moon from that spaceport.
Which is in a #marsh. Also, it’s infested with #alligators.

We’ve been studying the 1793 Yellow Fever epidemic in my Fictions of Early America class. If history is a story, Mathew Carey was a true villain in real life and fiction.

This is one of the epigraphs of the historical fiction short story “Fever” by John Edgar Wideman.

A bit late for #BlackHistoryMonth but well worth talking about!

@gwynnion FYI a friend wrote this review of #Necropolis an account of the interplay between #YellowFever race, class, and #Capitalism in New Orleans in the 19th century. Many echoes with today.

Since we were on the subject of #YellowFever, and since one of my presenter teams were out sick (ironic, I know), we went to the Yellow Fever place, with award-winning composer Jocelyn Pook's wonderful score "Yellow Fever Psalm"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJ67xVHFCU8

vocal, sometimes choral, the unintelligible text is read out over a synth score that moves in incredibly slow motion, much like the unfolding disease itself. (1/2)

#PandemicMusic #pandemic #music #YellowFeverPsalm #JocelynPook @JocelynPook

For an older portrayal of disease outbreaks, we have #Jezebel (1938), with #BetteDavis and #HenryFonda. The denouement, set in 1858 New Orleans, involves an outbreak of #YellowFever, and the town's attempt to clean the air / quarantine / solve the disease. Great music-for-the-carts of the sick and the dead

@admin 🙄 When I was a kid, I tried fighting a bunch of nurses, a doctor & my late father to avoid a #tetanus shot after stepping on a rusty nail.

I also received mandatory #vaccines as a kid (at taxpayer expense) to protect me against numerous diseases (including #Hepatitis) while attending public school.

When traveling to #Nigeria 🇳🇬 I was required to be vaccinated against #YellowFever before entering.

Anti #COVID vaccination hysteria is overblown, in my honest opinion.

- #vaccinehesitancy studies, along with data on #vaccine refusals (in relation to the #covid19vaccines)

- #Yellowfever vaccine and outbreak control in #Nomadic groups in the Savannah region. Been invited to revise both at PLOS Global Public Health

- Prevalence of #longcovid study, along with in-depth interviews that consider issues such as community and individual stigma. Policy briefs and manuscripts being written.

FOOTBALL TIME. #WellingtonPhoenix v #AdelaideUnited kicks off in 15 minutes.

⚽ Thoughts:
Adelaide go into it as favourites for me. The bookies don't seem to agree and the odds are even, with the #Nix taking a slight edge into it.

Both teams should score. I don't think it'll be a cagey affair. The #Phoenix can go 4th with a win.

Heart says #Phoenix. Brain says we'll be happy with a point.

Outrageous prediction time: 2-2.
