Virologist. PI working at but not speaking for USask. Co-EiC of Vaccine. 🇺🇸 in 🇨🇦. Emerging viruses, pathogenesis, zoonosis, host responses, dogs, football, off-color language, transcriptomic chaos. Opinions my own.
I stopped by The Incubator to have a little chat with my PhD mentor @microbetv.bsky.social about H5N1 bird flu.

I guess I’m all grown up as a virologist now that my teacher is asking me questions, but as Prof. Racaniello taught me, you should never stop learning ❤️🦠

Here is ostrich town crier Katie explaining how she has antibodies to H5N1 because of the “harmless” H5N1 she got from her mom’s infected ostriches & how we’d all be seropositive for H5N1 if we were tested.

Using ostrich expert Steven Pelech’s test, that’s probably true 🧵
