Our @CVRinfo investigation into the Scottish outbreak of unexplained hepatitis in children is now online as a preprint https://t.co/Hd05B7lEya. In this study, we used metagenomic and semi-agnostic target enrichment next generation sequencing to identify viruses in affected cases.

Why has the "N1" of H5N1 come back? And what would raise concern for human health?
Good thoughts on this "dramatic global sweep" and implications from @DuckSwabber and Ian Barr #birdflu #influenza #OneHealth #Epidemiology https://t.co/mNXhoDPvlv
