A 16th C Japanese medical text explains how diseases were caused by tiny bugs that entered the body and were known as creepy germs or mushi. One of these was known as kosho, an odd, bearded, snake-like, sake-drinking creature whose hat protects it from medicine.

I'm guessing Atwood's wallet is the one that says bad mother***er on it:

At the start of the 2020 global #pandemic, Biologic Models participated with a team of international research scientists examining the structural proteins of 2019 novel #Coronavirus. Created from that research is this #3Dprint of #SARSCoV2 Virion. https://biologicmodels.com/viruses/sars-cov-2-virion/ @mstdn.science

Sagy et al. have recently published in #NatureMedicine an analysis of the real-world efficacy of #JYNNEOS, the #smallpox shot redeployed against #monkeypox.

Last Fall I wrote a column for Nature Medicine that touched on the FDA's Animal Rule, used in the approval of anti-smallpox drugs due to the difficulty in designing ethically acceptable efficacy screens.

"Among the things Florida objected to: the course’s discussions on reparations, queer studies, feminist thought and intersectionality – referring to the way various systems of oppression are interconnected."

"I always think about climate justice as multitasking. We live in a time of multiple overlapping crises: we have a health emergency; we have a housing emergency; we have an inequality emergency; we have a racial injustice emergency; and we have a climate emergency, so we’re not going to get anywhere if we try to address them one at a time. We need responses that are truly intersectional. So how about as we decarbonise and create a less polluted world, we also build a much fairer society on multiple fronts?"
