Mashup Score: 3ANP32 Proteins Are Essential for Influenza Virus Replication in Human Cells | Journal of Virology - 8 day(s) ago
Influenza virus is the etiological agent behind some of the most devastating infectious disease pandemics to date, and influenza outbreaks still pose a major threat to public health. Influenza virus polymerase, the molecule that copies the viral RNA …

Great article. Always down to reiterate what a fucking asshole this guy is. Pity the important part is buried at the end. https://t.co/3HEuFVyrES https://t.co/Ayh43YQFzs

Mashup Score: 32Intraductal infection with H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4b influenza virus - 10 day(s) ago
The ongoing outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 of the clade 2.3.4.4b in dairy cows has led to numerous questions including how the virus transmits amongst cattle given the limited respiratory infection. One hypothesis is that the virus is spreading through fomites from udder to udder. In these studies, we demonstrate that intraductal inoculation of H5N1 but not H1N1 influenza virus results in infection in mice. This model will be useful to our understanding of the impact of influenza virus on the mammary gland, the potential as a new route of transmission, and can be used to assess if antiviral treatments prevent infections in the mammary gland. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest.

It’s always a good time for a nice, solid pathogenesis study, like this one by @SSCLabQuips showing intramammary infection of mice with a cattle isolate of H5N1. https://t.co/B3jejmj9oA

Canada has its first human case of H5N1. Hoping the patient recovers swiftly and also that the virus sequence is available as soon as it is acquired. https://t.co/ugdmnZpLhj

Mashup Score: 800CDC calls for expanded testing for bird flu after blood tests reveal more farmworker infections - 17 day(s) ago
Federal health officials are calling for more testing and treatment of workers on farms with bird flu.

So finally we've got some serology results from dairy workers in Michigan & Colorado: 7% seropositive. Glad these data have triggered new recommendations for worker protections, but as I told @JoNel_Aleccia, this should have happened months ago. https://t.co/lGvHS9XkWn

Also making a difference on the local level! Should add that this fellow Washingtonian also voted NO on 2117!!! And if you vote in WA, you should too—2117 guts existing climate legislation. https://t.co/m9P4WMufyy https://t.co/5lAOop1jll

We seem to have collectively forgotten the lasting destruction Trump inflicted on public health and pandemic preparedness, so I spoke to @hlavinka_e to remind you. This man's incompetence & failure to prioritize public health cost American lives. https://t.co/E6WaApV66G

Sometimes they are mutations that enhance permissivity, or the ability of a virus to replicate once it’s inside the host cell. The PB2 E672K mutation is an example, as it enables interaction with a host protein called ANP32 required for replication. https://t.co/SRd3WnLhvg
