    #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.

  6. 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.

  9. After years of silently lurking around Twitter, I finally decided to say #hello to the community with a short #introduction.

    I am a postdoc at #wwu University of #Münster pretending to know something about #microbialgenomics 🧫 . In my PhD I did research on #zoonotic pathogens 🐷 🐣 . More recently, I am trying to learn #metagenomics :rstats: 🧬 .

    Currently, I am also administrator of miGenomeSurv, a platform to harmonize genomic #surveillance in Germany migenomesurv.org.

    Start of a series. Good summary of what we are up against! Bottom line is viruses are moving from #animals to #humans ALL THE TIME, but only a few turn into a #Pandemic. We need to understand the near misses to help prevent the next catastrophe. #Virus #Viruses #Zoonotic #Diseases #Covid #Nipa #SARS

  13. 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.
