THE KANSAS JAYHAWKS ARE YOUR BIG 12 CHAMPIONS 🏆

[Dr Steven Quay @quay_dr]

BREAKING: First sequencing of the Hantavirus from the outbreak.

-99% identical to a June 2018 case from a patient in Argentina
-10.4 SNV/year mutation rate
- The Andes genome is about 12 kb across three RNA segments. At 10⁻⁴ to 10⁻³ substitutions/site/year, that translates very roughly to 1-12 SNV per year
-Completely in line with a natural spillover in Argentina from the rodent host in 2018 and now in 2026

"He's the toughest kid I've ever coached and it's not even close."

Gavyn Schlotterback went from being a high-caliber athlete to undergoing open-heart surgery in less than a month. A routine physical helped identify the risk.

An incredible story❤️

Gavyn Schlotterback had played 102 baseball games in 2025 before he got to KU. He felt fine.

Then he learned he had an enlarged ascending aorta and needed open heart surgery.

"As I’ve been told, it’s not something you feel until it’s too late," he said.
