I would have never predicted this. As a scientist working on emerging pathogens, this is very concerning. These are the folks working in the background stopping outbreaks that protect American public health.EIS has made countless contributions protecting Americans for decades

As physicians confront the widening measles outbreak it is important to keep in mind that we have a highly effective means of protecting those exposed - hyperimmune IgG. It showed 100% efficacy in the 2013 NYC outbreak. Michael Joyner Neil Stone Eric Topol

Seeing hantavirus in the news? Hantavirus is mainly spread by rodents. Learn more about the disease, where it can spread in the U.S., and how to protect yourself: bit.ly/3F8NwDH

Absolutely terrible for this patient and their family. A clear signal that better screening needs to be in place for transplant recipients

Brandolini’s Law (also known as the bullshit asymmetry principle): The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.

Lassa virus introduction into the United States; A granular local and national gov't led investigation report of the recent Iowa importation case. A reminder for the importance of understanding that pathogens do not respect borders and preparedness matters cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/7…

We are excited to reintroduce tickMAP (tickmap.org) Built from Upstate Tick Testing Laboratory data, tickMAP visualizes tick and pathogen activity across NY State. An essential tool for public health, surveillance, and research. 🔎 Best viewed on a computer monitor.

A career in scientific research can’t be your whole and only life. Enjoy your family, interact with your colleagues and friends, find a balance, use your PTO before they take it away.

Another Nipah case in Kerala with contacts also symptomatic. There are a number of effective drugs and vaccines in development that need to make it across the finish line. This is just another reminder why its important to continue to develop countermeasures against these agents

Sierra Leone is battling an mpox variant, G.1, that is rapidly spreading—25% hospitalized, thousands likely infected, cases doubling every two weeks, and now detected in the US & Europe. The country is responding. The world must join them. TIME Christian T. Happi

📢 Lassa Fever Update – Week 24, 2025 8 new confirmed cases were reported in Edo, Ondo, Taraba & Ebonyi States. So far in 2025: 🔸 766 confirmed cases 🔸 145 deaths 🔸 CFR: 18.9% (↑ from 17.6% same period in 2024) 🔸 91% of all confirmed cases from 5 states Stay informed.

Would be nice if folks published more of the arguments and impacts of defunding American science outside the paywalls of academic journals. Might actually reach the public and other funders that way

Severe, long term sequelae in survivors despite treatment. Clear evidence to vaccinate high risk persons in endemic areas and stage treatments (even experimental ones). Early detection, vaccination, and early treatment saves lives. newindianexpress.com/states/kerala/…

Being a scientist is still the best job in the world. The constant frustrations, all the crap that goes with trying to keep the lab alive and move things forward - it all resets and washes away in those occasional moments when we catch a glimpse of nature revealing something
