Tens of thousands of turkeys being suffocated and terminated by foam 👺A #birdflu infection is a death sentence for all incarcerated animals here. Animals living so close together are the breeding grounds for pandemics. Stop these death camps forever. #EndAnimalExploitation #GoPlantbased #LiveVegan 🙏

Defending against bioterrorism? Sounds pretty woke to me. I’m glad Trump finally fired those people.

Yes, then introduction of OC43, and other hCoVs, predates modern virology. The 1968 and 2009 flu pandemics were both caused by reassortment with swine flu.

It is not generally appreciated that descendents of the H1N1 influenza A virus that
caused the catastrophic and historic pandemic of 1918–1919 have persisted in humans

I know some who do (not trying to say you’re wrong at all) but guess what? It’s all an educated guess! Stuff changes! Personnel changes! We have global pandemics and elect dictators and all kinds of life happens!

This is one area where the historical consensus has shifted significantly, especially with the identification of cocolitzi as a hantavirus and some more careful demography work for north of the Rio Grande: virgin-soil pandemics were brutal, but the serious demographic crashes required more.
A thing I think doesn't get internalized enough in the discourse of the European subjugation of the Americas is that there was no way for contact between Europe and those continents to not end in abject disaster for indigenous Americans because of disease burden.
"Sapiens" is so normal for the first 70,000 years of human history but then goes absolutely buckwild as soon as it gets to colonialism

Here's the fucking thing. Most people get that respecting others' autonomy is a good thing. Pandemics fuck up our sense of that because suddenly respecting others' autonomy means treating our own bodies like biological weapons. It is no longer passive, it is active, and thus inconvenient.

A/H1N1pdm2009 completely replaced the previous A/H1N1. And A/H3N2 (1968 pandemic) completely replaced A/H2N2 (1957 pandemic). So they should both be thought of as separate pandemics. They both involved reassortment of human and bird influenza strains in non-human hosts.

Michael talks with Nate Soares, co-author of "If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies", on the risks of advanced artificial intelligence. Soares argues that humanity must treat AI risk as seriously as pandemics or nuclear war.
