Operational #epidemiology of the early phase of the 2026 #Bundibugyo virus disease #outbreak in the #DRC and #Uganda, https://etidiohnew.blogspot.com/2026/08/operational-epidemiology-of-early-phase.html

It is a uniquely humbling experience to realize that the microscopic apex predators of epochs past are merely sleeping beneath the ice, wholly indifferent to the passage of human history. The concept of a "zombie virus" might initially sound like the sensationalized plot of a science fiction novel, but—

Hemodialysis patients with blood type A exhibit significantly lower risks of both all-cause and cardiovascular mortality compared to those with other blood types. This finding directly contrasts with the general population, where blood type O is typically associated with the lowest risk of cardiovascular disease.

Toxoplasmosis is a widespread parasitic infection caused by Toxoplasma gondii, which affects approximately one-third of the global population and can cause severe ocular and neurological damage.

Big Picture Science for May. 11, Preventing Future Pandemics

We may not want to think about another pandemic, but, as epidemiologists say, it is once again a “when,” not “if,” scenario. For his latest book, journalist Jon Cohen, who has written extensively about infectious disease for the magazine Science, interviewed top epidemiologists around the world and followed virus hunters into damp and daunting bat caves to assess our pandemic preparedness readiness. Jon and Molly sit down before an audience in Los Angeles to talk about worrisome cuts to science funding and our ability (or inability) to be vigilant and respond quickly to emerging disease. There is good news: we know how to stop outbreaks. The question is, will we put our tools and vast knowledge to use?

Guest:

* Jon Cohen – senior correspondent with Science Magazine, author of “Planning Miracles: How to Prevent Future Pandemics”

Reading: The Trump Administration is Dismantling Efforts to Fight the Next Pandemic

Interesting paper about the impact of missed cases on the accuracy of screening tools, likely of interest beyond autism research and practice communities.

I enjoyed in particular, that "[t]he strengths and benefits of blending epidemiology and psychometric perspectives to identify screening tools that are weaker than expected are discussed."

I'm super excited that later today at 10:30 Eastern Time I'll be speaking at the Data+Donuts series at Harvard Kennedy School about the Public Health Disparities Geocoding Project 2.0.

Among other things, I'll talk a little bit about the role the #tidycensus package and GIS software in R like #sf can serve in analyzing data to advance health justice.
