Exciting night on the #TasmanPeninsula! #TasmanianDevil recorded trying to #hunt a #BrushtailPossum in a tree.
This is likely a young devil trying to climb the tree. #EaglehawkNeck @utas.bsky.social

@jaseziv.bsky.social can you your model be adapted to show attendance over time following new stadium construction? I suspect attendance would spike, but would only remain high if the team has a high winning percentage.

Post-exposure prophylaxis regimen of rabies monoclonal antibody and vaccine in category 3 potential exposure patients: a phase 4, open-label, randomised, active-controlled trial
RmAb was safe and well tolerated and showed protective efficacy against rabies. A
PEP regimen containing RmAb plus PVRV was immunogenic with long-term persistence of
immune response.
