I think many people really underestimate how likely a new pandemic is to occur in the next four years.
Even if you think of a pandemic as a once-in-a-century event, that's a 4% chance over the next four years. And I think in the world we live in a pandemic is far from a once-in-100 years event. 🧪

I write a monthly science column for some awesome small-town newspapers in rural New York. My main goal is to actively and diplomatically push back against pseudoscience. I'm the wife of a U.S. diplomat, so I know a few things about diplomacy:🧵🧪🔭

#ShorterIsBetter in immunocompromised hosts?
Short treatments are feasible in early responders without source control issues.

A significant number of observational studies serve as proof-of-concept on the feasibility of short courses in selected patients (see ⚠️)

55 casos humanos de #GripeAviar en EEUU en 2024.
32 por contacto con vacas, 21 con aves de corral y los más inquietantes: un adulto y un niño infectados sin contacto conocido con animales ni sus productos.
Y recordemos que estos 55 son solo los confirmados por PCR … 😓
California's human #H5N1 #birdflu case count is now up to 29.
National total this year is now 55.
