55 cases of H5N1 in the US and it’s in California cows since August 2024. But so far it’s not airborne (we think?)
The CDC has confirmed the case of H5N1 in a child in the East Bay (Alameda county California, for people playing the home game). Other family had respiratory symptoms, but tested negative.

1 cell dividing into 14 cells… figure it would be something annoying like plaque?!

dental plaque bacterium 𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘺𝘯𝘦𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘶𝘮 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘪 can divide into an unprecedented 14 daughter cells at once—then each daughter cell starts growing immediately in a rare process called multiple fission, achieving 0.5 mm per day of expansion

These mouth bacteria use a new type of cell division to make 14 cells at once
The newfound strategy seen in C. matruchotii might help oral bacteria recover lost territory after each eviction by toothbrushing.
