Oh hey, H5N1 in Texas dairy cows! Are you a new spillover or have you always been there, undetected b/c of insufficient testing?

It’s migration season, almost flu season, & we’ve never had a handle on the cow outbreak. Bird flu is here & we ignore at our peril

Write members of Congress - Will COVID-19 vaccines be available this fall?

It is clear that HHS Secretary RFK Jr. is on a dangerous and fast-moving path to make COVID-19 vaccines totally unavailable here in the U.S. With COVID-19 cases on the rise in many parts of the US an...

I’ve heard from a couple of messaging strategists now that people shouldn’t post so much about COVID19 vaccines because it’s “divisive”.

I will never ignore scientific evidence for the sake of expediency, and neither should anyone else.

Amid bird flu fears about egg prices, viral milk and human pandemic risks, there's a piece missing--the impact on wildlife, which I covered for @sciam.bsky.social : 🧪 🪶 www.scientificamerican.com/article/bird...

The Bird Flu Story No One Is Telling

Bird flu fears have focused on the poultry and dairy industries and human health. But wild animals are threatened, too—at scales no one fully understands

I think it would be wonderful if there could be a path to democratizing similar therapeutic peptides via decentralized production (in situ) with bacteria used in fermented foods (such as lactic acid bacteria).

Jonathan Moore @mojonati.bsky.social · Jul 11

Maybe best (for most of us who aren't trained veterinarians) not to handle any wild animals anywhere?

Fascinating study about a truly terrifying virus for cats. This is a big deal not just for veterinary infectious diseases, but virology in general. Just a crazy situation.

Thanks for suggesting this review. It's an understatement to say that it's unfortunate to find such articles behind a paywall!

If anyone is seeking access to learn more about this article from an open "important research for health" class (and/or to discuss teaching it yourself), let me know!
