🌍 A World First: CIRI teams help identify the 1st human case of Shamonda virus infection. 🤝The research contributed to a publication highlighting the importance of collaboration between research, hospitals & public health to detect the emergence of new infectious agents. 🔗 urlr.me/yvbewV

Fatal encephalitis caused by Shamonda virus Europe 1 (SHAV-EU1) in a patient with a severely weakened immune system, France, 2026

New Shamonda virus clades (SHAV-EU1 and SHAV-EU2) emerged in Europe in summer 2026, primarily affecting cattle. We report the first human infection with SHAV-EU1: a French patient with a severely weak...

Think people not completely tuned out understand that these actions are the weaponization and abuse of governmental power to further conspiratorial narratives. No matter how often their lab leak GOF BS is disproven, they stir up BS & will claim vindication and the circle jerk goes another round.

“HHS is punishing a world-class scientist who was working to protect people against pandemics, and if he had been listened to more thoroughly, we might have been better prepared for SARS-CoV-2” This might be the most insane thing yet. www.science.org/content/arti...

The world of influenza science has lost one of its giants. Nancy Cox, who led #CDC's flu division for years & worked assiduously to improve global flu surveillance, died Thursday. I learned a ton from Nancy Cox. RIP. www.statnews.com/2026/04/25/n...

Nancy Cox, a CDC veteran and a stalwart in global flu research, dies at 77

Nancy Cox, a CDC veteran who for decades was a global leader in influenza research, has died at 77.

We are recruiting 1-2 postdoctoral fellows to investigate the specificity of human anti-influenza virus antibodies, and to determine how these antibodies impact global antigenic drift of influenza viruses. Join our lab at Penn in Philly. Reach out if you are interested in applying! Please repost!

Hate that it has come to this, but it's time to consider PubMed vulnerable to enshittification. My latest post @plos.org discusses the lines we need to fight to hold – and alternatives we can rely on internationally: absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2025/02/14/w... #medlibs

What if We Can't Rely on PubMed? - Absolutely Maybe

PubMed is incredibly reliable. And a lot depends on it. It’s an ecosystem built around MEDLINE, the steady feed of new publications…
