"Among other things, this would mean reforming the agency’s much-maligned communications apparatus and honing its ability to capably respond to public health emergencies in a way that it has singularly failed to do during the Covid pandemic. If enacted, this would represent the kind of top-to-bottom revamp that rarely, if ever, happens at most federal agencies."

#CellMigration for house cleaning!
Immune cell (i.e. #DendriticCell), moves to remove 2 death cells (arrows)
This is pretty much what happens in our body when normal tissue cells die, they are scanned & removed by leukocytes (also macrophages)

How a Dutch "Dementia Village" Improves Quality of Life with Intentional Design
"Vaccines that resulted in speedy delivery of antigens to follicles preserved intact antigen and generated better antibody responses. These findings may have implications for the design of vaccines against difficult to neutralize or genetically variable pathogens"

I've been using ChatGPT to research medical topics lately. I use it as a minimally biased observer rather than a tutor. ChatGPT knows how to stay on topic; ChatGPT knows how to weigh things fairly.
It's very good for gaining depth and clarity on subjects you're already reasonably comfortable with, but not so much for stuff you're just learning about. Catching it in a mistake makes it perform much better, for whatever reason. Resource escalation, perhaps.
