Do the @TheLancet editors read the papers they publish? From the fractured sentence in Andes Virus on a Cruise Ship, what it Tells us About the Global Pandemic Preparedness Agenda the answer seems to be "No". For starters, "susta" isn't a word.

Acceptable risk?

"In a statement, Department of Health and Welfare spokesperson AJ McWhorter said the agency didn’t name the milking operations “because this is a potential risk for any raw milk producer.”"
