Eine Infektion mit dem Bandwurm Schistocephalus solidus führt bei Dreistachligen Stichlingen zu einer geringeren Fluchtbereitschaft bei drohender Gefahr. Eine aktuelle Studie zeigt, dass das auch Konsequenzen für gesunde Artgenossen haben kann.

Beneath the #COVID19 headline, this is a story about how hard it is to disrupt dogma in science - in this case, misassumptions about how #vaccines & #immune memory are supposed to work. 1/2
