Dr Summa Bibby (Watterson lab) captured the first high-res images of yellow fever virus, a potentially deadly disease spread by mozzies. The discovery offers new insights into yellow fever biology & may lead to better vaccine design & antiviral strategies. tinyurl.com/5n6r2966

New from the RNA Virology lab: We characterized 2021-2022 vaccine & hybrid immunity cohorts for #SARSCoV2 in QLD AUS and generated an ΔORF3-8 attenuated strain. We validated this virus in neutralization assays with sera panel. We hope for future BSL2 use.

Here, we reanalyse support for claims published in mBio on #SARSCoV2 "recombination" with bacteria. We find no evidence that mutations in SARS-CoV-2 VOC originate from homologous fragments in gut microbiota. Thanks to @JVirology for publishing. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…
