Coronaviruses in bats are almost never harmful to humans.
New study led by Dr Alison Peel @alibat.bsky.social looks at co-infections in young bats - and how they might shape how viruses evolve in nature. go.sydney.edu.au/CneWYt

ICYI here are the slides we presented earlier this morning of an AI analysis of information from the abstracts we received at #EEID2025. We hope it is useful for offering some big-picture perspective on what's going on in EEID research right now. Or at least a starting point for discussion!
