If you, like me, really enjoy #sushi and #sashimi well, this study is quite #worrying.
“Scientists Find #Parasites in Almost Every Fish From a Recent #Tuna Haul – 96% Were Infected”
Parasites where Anisakis and Trypanorhyncha. Both can cause #illnesses (mainly gastrointestinal and allergic) but they cannot reproduce in our organism.
High quality fish, particularly when consuming fish raw, is essential. https://www.sciencealert.com/scientists-find-parasites-in-almost-every-fish-from-a-recent-tuna-haul-96-were-infected

#safely eradicate #parasites via #gene-drive
#medical : lice, scabies : #gene_drive
#lice (body, pubic, head) & #mites (' #scabies ') and #bedbugs have no #natural_predators , it would be fantastically amazing to have a #genedrive to #eradicate the sometimes-lethal insects. Last year, it was widely reported, one on the east coast had died -- was literally eaten alive by a parasite colony in jail. No treatment had been granted, despite repeat complaints. More recently, prisoners in #ice jails, families & children in #Gaza , and held in #Israeli #prisons have reported being deliberately #infected with scabies and lice, suffering horribly. Also #RX #treatment_resistance - much like #antibiotic_resistance w #superbugs - to conventional RX (#antiparasitics ) has skyrocketed: in late 1990s, efficacy was ~97% in USA. But a decade ago by 2016, dropped to ~35%. Today, the identical treatment is prescribed as 30 years ago. Finally, said #drugs = #neurotoxin #nerve_damage . A #genedrive could fix all of that. What is it? A gene edit which makes 100% of all offspring male: no females = inability to #reproduce and it perpetuates every generation so an edited male reproduces w nonedited female and all eggs become male, also carrying the gene-edit.... And eventually the colony depopulates entirely. A very fast & effective cure ..... versus.... a months-long hopeless battle dousing one's body in vinegar, daily, plus numerous other toxins & nerve damage. -

So, this site is very simple, but it's been around for years. Visit the forum for the latest posts about #diseases and #zoonoses.
For example, I found this item, posted by one of the moderators, under the thread:
#Texas - #AvianInfluenza in mammals and livestock 2023-2025 [Click the fast forward button to get to the latest post]"Media (City of Spur, Facebook page)
City of #SpurTexas
May 8, 2025"Important Notice: #BirdFlu Detected in #StrayCats
"The Texas Department of State Health Services has alerted us that a strain of bird flu is affecting stray cats in the area. The symptoms can look similar to rabies, and this virus is highly contagious to humans.
"Please be cautious around stray cats. If you see a sick or unusually acting cat, DO NOT TOUCH IT. Report it to City of Spur or the appropriate authorities right away.
"Your safety is important - stay alert and help spread the word!"

#WAHIS: World Animal Health Information System
"WAHIS is the global animal health reference database of the World Organisation for Animal Health (#WOAH). WAHIS data reflects the validated information since 2005 reported by the Veterinary Services from Member and non-Member Countries and Territories on terrestrial and aquatic Listed diseases in domestic animals and wildlife, as well as on emerging #diseases and #zoonoses.
"WAHIS includes interactive mapping tools and dashboards to support data consultation, visualization and extraction of officially validated animal health data."

@PaleoParaDive #Postdoc #Introduction Karina Vanadzina joined our team in Oktober. #She has a wide #experience with #phylogenetic #comparative methods and #macroecological analyses which she will use to investigate how #parasites and their #hosts respond to changing #Climate. She recently completed her #PhD @ St Andrews, UK, where she worked on the #evolution of #parentalcare in #vertebrates.
