Good news!!! You have more time to tell us all about the wonderful #VHF #Ebola #CCHF #RVF #Hanta #Lassa virus work you are doing! Submission deadline extended to Dec 31, 2020: https://t.co/2sNST5FGej @stevewelch23 @femscholte

Preprint #remdesivir antiviral activity against #SARSCoV2. Cell lines and primary human cells. Why Vero cells are bad for #nucleoside analogs. Led by @Ardinajp. Team effort between @DenisonLab @Baric_Lab @LisaGralinski @SarahRLeist @mariagoneviral @KDinnon https://t.co/kcsYUKf4g0

A very well articulated piece on Virology 101 of #SARSCoV2

An infectious cDNA clone of SARS-CoV-2: @TheMenacheryLab Shi lab @utmbhealth &Co generated an infectious cDNA clone of #SARSCoV2 & mNeonGreen reporter virus. Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 and reporter virus replicate as efficiently as original clinical isolate https://t.co/Zj2776EyA6

[Florian Krammer @florian_krammer]

Good news. Rhesus macaques seem to be immune to re-challenge with SARS-CoV-2. This suggests that we are also immune once we clear the infection (serology in humans points in same direction). Not sure how long immunity lasts but likely for months or years. https://t.co/KlOIbMAofM

Exciting new work from Geisbert and Broder groups beginning to uncover correlated of natural immunity to henipavirus disease. @ihii_utmb @UTMBProvost @utmbnews @USUhealthsci https://t.co/XFueEotaoq

Nipah virus experts and stakeholders have gathered for #NipahAt20, the first international conference to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the virus’ discovery and discuss solutions to combat the threat to global health security posed by the virus 🌏👇#OutsmartEpidemics

[Jessica Spengler @VirusVetty]

😍 sample size! These hamsters are teaching us about blood chemistry changes associated with #Nipah virus disease. @stevewelch23 @femscholte https://t.co/vhSEp8q7dp

[Steve Welch @stevewelch23]

@verorezelj Thanks Vero!!!:)

[Steve Welch @stevewelch23]

Great to see our work with #CCHFV published. We took our green reporter virus used it to examine tissue tropism in vivo - turned up a few surprises! https://t.co/7iPdacHdp8

[Steve Welch @stevewelch23]

@RogueRifter Thank you! It's a pain to do at BSL4, but the outcome is worth it in the end. Some credit should go to @10queues as well, I still remember the @MicrobioSoc conference where he first presented his original green measles research which inspired this!

[Steve Welch @stevewelch23]

Fantastic Lassa research which underscores how vital continuing surveillance is for the effective development of vaccines and therapeutics. #LASV

Over 15 years, researchers identified two new channels linking the Atlantic and Pacific oceans between Russia and Alaska. Animals who live there are interacting for the first time, creating a reservoir of the deadly pathogen Phocine distemper virus (PDV). https://t.co/U866OEJTkb
