  1. #KnowledgeByte: #Zoonotic #Diseases are infections that can be transmitted between animals and humans. These diseases are caused by various pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi.

    #COVID19 #vaccine boosters may help protect against future animal #coronaviruses
    First exposure to SARS-CoV-2 ‘locks in’ our #immuneResponse

    yes, I would expect that the global exposure to covid and its vaccines may make it harder for any future #SARS-like #zoonotic outbreaks to cause harm.

  5. The BEST defense against #Ebola is still prevention of #zoonotic transmission, and education about avoiding unnecessary, unprotected contact with bodily fluids; simple barrier nursing, disinfection, etc.

    The population in the DR #Congo and #Uganda are overwhelmingly poor, and vastly illiterate. The governments of both are overwhelmed and corrupt to the core.

    Some cultural practices includes handling deceased bodies' fluids, in preparation for ritual burial. You see where this is going.

  6. Bats harbor many #zoonotic #viruses yet remain asymptomatic; why? @Lucie_Virevolte &co show that #bat GBP5 evolved under +ve selection, driving virus-specific restriction & lineage-specific loss of a #prenylation motif that reshaped #antiviral function @PLOSBiology plos.io/48KVgYe

  8. 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.

  10. No vaccine, no cure: Nipah virus is back in the news.
    India (West Bengal) just confirmed 2 cases in healthcare workers — one recovering, one critical. Contacts tested negative, and WHO says low risk of wider spread.
    Deadly zoonotic virus (40-75% fatality) from fruit bats, spreads via close contact or contaminated food. High alert in parts of Asia, but not easily transmissible person-to-person.
