Promising drug repurposing results #invitro with #Azelastine against #SARSCoV2 Results from @JakabLab with great collaborator partners from Austria. Crossing fingers for the success of clinical trials. https://t.co/c8cAmZdJp9
Serious red flags here from leading One Health researchers. Clear capacity for SARS-CoV-2 transmission in exptl-infected rabbits. Same for Raccoon dogs (fur trade) & widespread mink-2-human infections. I'm sure there's more to come, but this makes COVID control even more complex
Update to our pre-print online with new analysis, 'Natural selection in the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in bats, not humans, created a highly capable human pathogen'; the evidence points to the significant evolution that created #SARSCoV2 occurring in bats: https://t.co/0As34re63D
#nipah virus syncytium on Vero cell line, different virus concentrations. #emergingdiseases#bsl4#virus@JakabLab Nipah is a #prioritydisease for R&D by @WHO That’s why we are working hard from the field to the lab on innovative diagnostic tools and novel therapeutics.
#mentalwellness during #Covid_19 in #NYCLockdown I never appreciated my Bldg’s rooftop patio/garden until now. 4 pics from my lunch break: (1) Patio, (2) Statue of Liberty view, (3) Empire State Bldg view, (4) Hudson River (no ferries, yachts or anything). #SocialDistancing 👍👌
La ecología del parasitismo/enfermedades nos ayuda a entender la importancia de diferentes factores que afectan la transmisión de patógenos, muchos de ellos circulando entre fauna silvestre, doméstica y personas. Por eso se hace esencial que utilicemos aproximaciones ‘one health’
Thank you to @GISAID and the Bioinformatics Research Group at Szentagothai Research Centre, we now have 2 sequences from Hungary at https://t.co/vNLmeQuLnx. This new sequence nests separately from the first, grouping with viruses from the Netherlands and Switzerland.
