Exciting news: Our latest research shows influenza antibody CR9114 protects intranasally against #avianflu incl. #H5N1 in vivo. Continued spread of H5N1 among animals has increased the importance of pandemic preparedness. Read our paper in @SciReports: bit.ly/48laZdF

If everyone you know is suddenly getting “food poisoning”, just FYI that it is probably not actually food poisoning but is instead norovirus.
Norovirus (sometimes called “stomach flu” but not actually flu) is seasonal, and right now in the US it is norovirus season.

Could intranasal sprays for passive immunization help with pandemic preparedness? Our mathematical models - based on 1000s of scenarios - show that for COVID-19, they could have...(1) delayed the spread and (2) reduced hospitalizations. Speedy rollout in the first two months...
For speedy rollout, the intranasal spray should be readily available (hence it should protect against both known and unknown viruses). How many hospitalizations are prevented depends on (1) treatment efficacy, (2) the duration of use, and (3) how many people use it.
Great collaborating with the great Sir Roy Anderson/Frank de Wolf/Chris Hadjichrysanthou/@ClarissaMKoch + others not on Twitter. Read more: link.springer.com/article/10… “Exploring the Role of Antiviral Nasal Sprays in the Control of Emerging Respiratory Infections in the Community.”

This is hilarious. Engineers are competing who creates the worst UI on Reddit.

Why does chatGPT make up fake academic papers?
By now, we know that the chatbot notoriously invents fake academic references. E.g. its answer to the most cited economics paper is completely made-up (see image).
But why? And how does it make them? A THREAD (1/n) 🧵
Mooi essay over energierechtvaardigheid: "Een rechtvaardige warmtetransitie vereist dat burgers het best mogelijke warmtenet krijgen, dat voldoet aan hun wensen. Het gaat immers om hún huizen, hún investeringen, hún rekeningen en hún wijken."
