Absolutely thrilled this is out🥳Our review explores why antibiotics often fail even when bacteria is susceptible in the lab. From phenotypic resilience and biofilm formation to host microenvironment, we dive into many factors behind these discrepancies

New development: this is the first detection of genotype D1.1 H5N1 virus in cattle. All cattle sequences to date were genotype B3.13 & were all descended from a single spillover.
New genotype means new introduction to cows from birds.

USDA milk testing shows different strain of H5N1 bird flu in Nevada dairy herds
The USDA said four Nevada dairy herds were infected with an H5N1 bird flu strain that has circulated in wild birds, making prospects for containment in cows appear dim.

I will continue as well as I can. But it seems that I will now be increasingly working upstream to do so.
Vaccines and medical advancements have been a source of pride for the US. But withheld from the world, they are nothing more than arrogant taunts of a bully.

I will not be an apologist for the many horrible things the US has done and continues to do around the world. But it has been the great privilege of my life to have participated, in even a small way, in health development that has offset some of those harms.
