I was interviewed on a podcast, Virology Unmasked, https://virologyunmasked.com/michael-emerman/ with the title "Work on Important Things" which was a quote from my graduate school advisor, Howard Temin. The conversation was a nice retrospective of my career in virology and mentoring style.

Molecular evolutionary analysis of the current Bundibugyo virus disease outbreak in DRC and Uganda

This is an informal analysis … based on the 10 available outbreak-associated #Bundibugyo virus (BDBV) sequences available as of 28 May 2026.

The sampled viruses appear to share a most recent common ancestor in early-to-mid March 2026.

[The] level of diversity suggests that the sampled viruses do not represent the very beginning of transmission, but instead reflect an outbreak that had already been circulating, at least partly undetected, for several weeks.

The estimated epidemic doubling time is relatively slow but highly uncertain … [ranging] from 15.2 to 24.5 days.

The corresponding reproduction number (𝑅0) estimates are centred above 1, with mean estimates ranging from 1.31 to 1.55.

These estimates should be interpreted cautiously. The analysis is based on only 10 sequences collected over a short sampling window.

Initial genomes from May 2026 Bundibugyo Virus Disease Outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda, reveal a new spillover event

On 15 May 2026, the Ministry of Public Health, Hygiene and Social Welfare, DR Congo (DRC) officially declared a Bundibugyo Virus Disease (BVD) outbreak in Ituri province, DRC. This represents 17th Ebola outbreak in DRC and the second #Ebola outbreak caused by Orthoebolavirus bundibugyoense (BDBV) species. After the 2007 outbreak in Bundibugyo, Uganda, and the 2012 BDV outbreak in Isiro, DRC, the ongoing outbreak is the third documented BDV outbreak.

The three newly generated #BDBV genome sequences from Uganda (one) and DRC (two) were analysed in the context of 34 BDBV genomes from the previous outbreaks in 2007 and 2012 downloaded from Pathoplexus.

Zoonotic spillover is the successful transmission of a pathogenic entity—such as a virus, bacterium, or parasite—from a non-human animal reservoir into a human population. This rare but consequential event occurs when a pathogen successfully crosses the strict biological boundary between species.

The Coroner of the #MaeveInquest has issued a REGULATION 28: REPORT TO PREVENT FUTURE DEATHS sent to inter alia the representative of #UKgov & #NHSEngland. The link is to the three-page document, which is succinct and clear.

#LadyShambles’ take on the #MaeveInquest result, per her worthy comment to @DavidTuller1 & @ValeriEliotSmit’s overview & commentary:

1. M.E. Is a ‘physical’ (as opposed to psychological) disease;

2. M.E. can cause death;

3. #MEKills
