Replying to @AusVirologySoc @emma__harding @WhiteLabUNSW @UNSWBABS
I use a combination of #bioinformatics and wet lab work to study endogenous viral elements in animals, with a focus on Australian marsupials like the #TasmanianDevil, #koala, #wallaby, #dunnart and #possum! @UNSW @UNSWScience #virology #AVS11

‘I have been waiting for this since day one’: Prof Peter White from @WhiteLabUNSW on the promising clinical trial results of a new oral #antiviral COVID-19 treatment. bit.ly/3AjfrZv

newsGP - GPs could soon have an antiviral pill to treat COVID-19

A new oral treatment reduces the risk of hospitalisation and death due to COVID by 50%, research suggests.

New paper out from our work on cane toad viruses 🐸, led by @AliceGRusso @WhiteLabUNSW Could viruses be contributing to the toad invasion success in Australia? Have they left some viruses behind in their native range? Read more here: frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

🐨 @emma__harding from @UNSWBABS examined the #DNA and #RNA of 13 Australian marsupial species and believes that viral fossils may be helping protect animals from infection. Could viral fossils in our own DNA being doing the same? newsroom.unsw.edu.au/news/sc…

The origins of COVID-19 are 12 months old and here's what we know about how it started abc.net.au/news/2020-11-17/c…

After 12 months and 1.3m deaths, what do we know about the origins of coronavirus?

November likely marks 12 months of life with the pandemic, but the most fundamental questions, like where it came from and who its first victim was, remain unanswered, writes Catherine Taylor.

Are you in these Sydney #coronavirus hotspots? @UNSW virologist Prof Peter White says while "we're not going as hard and as early as New Zealand but we are going pretty hard and we have some advantages in Australia”. #COVID19au #StayHomeAustralia smh.com.au/national/nsw/key-… – at Sydney, New South Wales

Key charts show well-heeled Sydney areas leading COVID-19 count

The rate of coronavirus infection is running at much higher rates in parts of the north shore and eastern suburbs than elsewhere in Sydney, with young people adding to many new cases.
