The latest developments with #H5N1 #birdflu are unsettling. But humans & this virus, we have history.
I asked a number of people who've been studying it, some for a quarter century, on their thoughts about where things stand now. statnews.com/2023/02/08/trac…

Since I like to criticize @Delta once in a while, it is just fair to also point out nice things. They now have free in-fligh internet for all SkyMiles members. I really like it, that's the way to go.

Pregnant people are at higher risk of serious flu illness, but fewer pregnant people are getting a #flu vaccine in recent seasons, with the lowest coverage among Black, non-Hispanic pregnant people. More: bit.ly/2PbvS4p
ALT Bar graph titled “Flu Vaccination Coverage among Pregnant People 18 to 49 Years of Age.” The bars on the graphs show changes by race and ethnicity from 2021-2022 to 2022-2023. Subtitle reads: "As of the end of December 2022, flu vaccination coverage among pregnant people has decreased across all race and ethnicity groups compared to the same time last season." Data are as follows: Overall: 2022-2023: 47.1%; 2021-2022: 56.3%; Asian Non-Hispanic: 2022-2023: 65.2%; 2021-2022: 76.0%; White, Non-Hispanic: 2022-2023: 47.1%; 2021-2022: 58.2%; Other, Non-Hispanic: 2022-2023: 46.3%; 2021-2022: 55.4%; Hispanic: 2022-2023: 46.1%; 2021-2022: 53.2%; Black, Non-Hispanic: 2022-2023: 28.4%; 2021-2022: 31.6%

Please give me the unbridled energy and optimism of the new PIs that give advice on mentoring, grantsmanship, and hiring after having their own lab for one month. With that energy, we could re-discover the effects of interferon even faster!
ASV Global Partnerships and Advocacy Committee retweeted
Oft forgotten, only to be rediscovered immediately in Nature, Science, or Cell.
I wrote about interferon, an oft-forgotten antiviral superhero. It's a badass—and an underappreciated force in coronavirus evolution: Variants that are better at suppressing interferon or dodging it may spread faster or cause worse disease.

A trio of leading virologists at @MountSinaiNYC has been working diligently on an alternative #COVID19 vaccine, known as NDV-HXP-S. It is engineered with the Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV), which is harmless to humans. Learn more: mshs.co/3OB0oRK
