Another unvaccinated child has died from the measles in Texas.
There are over 600 cases in the US right now.
Letting children die to a completely preventable disease is absolute insanity.

Okay, so.
I don’t know how much of a heads up this is when it’s just a notice about these 2 mutations. Do they really raise serious concerns about “increased transmission?”
Sort of. It’s more complex than D701N & E626K, omg pandemic bird flu.
What do these mutations do in H5N1?
