Greece's #West #Nile Season Is the Worst Since 2018 — and #Europe's Is Far From Over

"#Greece recorded 75 new locally acquired West Nile #virus #infections in a single week."

Tick-borne virus: Virtually the whole biosphere is constrained by basic parameters such as temperature, which is why the #ClimateCrisis affects all life. One example that should be known more widely is the spread of deadly #infections with shifting climate zones:

#Children have borne the brunt of the #infections, making up >70% of confirmed cases. >80 children & adolescents have been hospitalized this year for complications like #pneumonia, which leaves patients gasping for air, & #brain swelling, which can cause lasting damage, including #blindness, #deafness & intellectual #disabilities. (There are NO treatments for #measles, though researchers are trying to develop them.)

"#Measles doesn't just make you miserable for a week or two. It infects immune cells, including the long-lived memory cells your body uses to recognize #infections it has already beaten, and it wipes out part of that hard-won memory.

A 2019 study in Science found measles erased anywhere from 11% to 73% of children's existing antibody repertoire, and even kids with mild cases lost about 20% on average."

2001-2020, there was an average of 3 cases/year. Last year's tally was 24. The infection is #leptospirosis.The bacteria that causes it—#spirochete #bacteria of genus #Leptospira—infect #rats, which shed it in their #urine. The germs jump to people through direct contact with wounds or mucous membranes. Their main time to thrive is in warm, moist conditions. Last year, months with most cases were Jun & Oct.

2019: #Gut #microbiota and #neurological effects of #glyphosate

Abstract: "There are currently various concerns regarding certain environmental toxins and the possible impact they can have on developmental diseases. Glyphosate (Gly) is the most utilised herbicide in agriculture, although its widespread use is generating controversy in the scientific world because of its probable #carcinogenic effect on human cells. Gly performs as an inhibitor of 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phospate synthase (EPSP synthase), not only in plants, but also in bacteria. An inhibiting effect on EPSP synthase from intestinal microbiota has been reported, affecting mainly beneficial bacteria. To the contrary, Clostridium spp. and Salmonella strains are shown to be resistant to Gly. Consequently, researchers have suggested that Gly can cause dysbiosis, a phenomenon which is characterised by an imbalance between beneficial and pathogenic microorganisms. The overgrowth of bacteria such as #clostridia generates high levels of noxious metabolites in the #brain, which can contribute to the development of neurological deviations. This work reviews the impact of Glyphosate-induced #intestinal dysbiosis on the central nervous system, focusing on emotional, #neurological and #neurodegenerative disorders. A wide variety of factors were investigated in relation to brain-related changes, including highlighting #genetic abnormalities, #pregnancy-associated problems, #diet, #infections, vaccines and heavy metals. However, more studies are required to determine the implication of the most internationally used #herbicide, Gly, in behavioural disorders."
