Monkeypox virus research from our group is now online in @ScienceTM! We wanted to know whether TPOXX treatment was effective against the current outbreak virus, critical info for curbing the ongoing outbreak. #ScienceTranslationalMedicineResearch Short 🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/scit…

Between pregnant women, immigrants, and now this RFK nonsense, probably not hyperbolic to say a Trump win would needlessly kill an extraordinary number of people.
A vote for Trump is now quite literally a vote for dead or disabled children. 👇🏻

Often we’re asked why we should worry about high consequence viruses that are only found in Africa and other regions and not in Canada or the US. Here’s one reason why 👇🏻

Congrats again! This paper was all your initiative and hard work! Glad to see it out.
Our new paper on #longcovid in a preclinical animal model, changed proteins 31 days after infection in the young. Sex based differences and surprising as disease is mild with quick resolution in this model. Teamwork with @BryceWarner1 and @RVendramelli nature.com/articles/s44298-0…

having had lots of discussions about what viruses should or shouldn't be priority pathogens, it's great to see a much more comprehensive list published!

Thanks, but no thanks, Kim. Even if I were still in Winnipeg, I think I’d pass.

Some Filovirus therapeutic work from my previous lab now out in J Virol. This study showing delayed treatment of Sudan virus infected NHPs with a monoclonal cocktail is highly effective. More countermeasures for non-EBOV species are critically needed! journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…

Very happy to see this one come online! A great collaboration b/w folks at NML and U of Guelph. NDV vaccination protects against Delta and BA.2 SARS-CoV-2 variants in both mouse and hamster models and provides longer term protection in hamsters.👇🏻🐁 🐹 nature.com/articles/s41541-0…

I mean, he deserves it, but I think this is the first time I’ve seen someone have their own “corner” to use as a forum in a scientific or medical journal.. 🤔😂. A lofty goal for us all.
Stanley Plotkin argues that we need a new mumps vaccine, citing concern about waning immunity among college-age students precipitating outbreaks among the vaccinated that is exacerbated by a mismatch between the vaccine strain’s HN protein and that of circulating mumps viruses, and pointing out that a third dose of MMR as a requirement before people go to college may exclude many: journals.lww.com/pidj/fullte…
