A wonderful talk from PhD candidate Polly Hannaford telling us about megalocytiviruses in ornamental fish and the risk to commerical aquaculture such as barramundi 🐟
Some interesting studies planned over the next few years on diagnostic test validation & surveillance strategies

Jess Bridgen: How granular does movement data need to be when modelling large-scale epidemics?
Less granular network results in more dispersed outbreak with greater number of farms involved but overall outbreak size similar.
