Congratulations to @trentkainalu/@TrentPrall who is now Dr. Trent following his successful Ph.D. defense!
With a great segment from Marc on our search for a cryptic lineage in Wisconsin.
With a great segment from Marc on our search for a cryptic lineage in Wisconsin.
Excited to see viral air sampling from our work in K-12 schools as part of @PublicHealthMDC 's updated respiratory illness dashboard. publichealthmdc.com/coronavirus/da…
Big week for Dr. @MitchellRamuta - successfully defended his PhD thesis yesterday and had his last manuscript in the lab posted to Medrxiv today! When he's back online he can Twitter summarize. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
Updated version of our preprint describing a Wisconsin cryptic lineage is now in Medrxiv at medrxiv.org/content/10.110…. I'll leave it to @SolidEvidence to do the twittering about it. Congrats to all involved!
Our newest preprint showing that African lineage Zika virus infection causes frequent pregnancy loss in 2-3 weeks in monkeys is now in Biorxiv (@lo_raasch and @JennaRosinski can provide more details)!: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
For those of you that have asked me why I am convinced that cryptic lineages are coming from people, I can finally point to a pre-print with @dho and many fantastic collaborators in the UWisc and Wisc Public Health. medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
Our paper with @DrJDennehy @RoseKantor @dho describing the first 9 cryptic lineages of SARS-CoV-2 identified from wastewater (from 3 states) is now online. journals.plos.org/plospathogens/…
There’s Something in the Air: Monitoring Indoor Air for #SARSCoV2 Air surveillance in indoor spaces where people gather can be an important complement to clinical and wastewater data @MitchellRamuta @dho @dho_lab go.nature.com/3cB6Bk1
Check out this blog post explainer that @MitchellRamuta put together describing our @NatureComms paper on detecting SARS-CoV-2 and other viruses in air from schools and other congregate settings! microbiologycommunity.nature.com/posts/in-the-a…

The message from Israel is clear: #Covid19 booster shots should be standard. A third dose of the vaccine provides significant protection, but that should not mean those who are unvaccinated go without, by @dho theguardian.com/commentisfree/… via @guardian #vaccination
@dho Thank you so much for your reply. Much appreciated!!!!
medrxiv.org/content/10.110… Thanks for this paper @tcfriedrich @KasenRiemersma @dho reading w/ interest.
@dho @NathanGrubaugh there’s a lot of denialism, even among scientists, about what’s happening with delta breakthroughs. I’m Israeli, and it’s been clear for over a month what’s going on (which is why Israel started administering boosters to the elderly). the US is slow to accept this.
I have published a study, with Joel Wertheim, @suchard_group, @LemeyLab @jepekar and others that indicates that the B.1 variant jumped from China to Italy on or around Jan 28 2020. 12/ science.sciencemag.org/content/370/65…
@dho Thanks for the info! I am moving to campus in two weeks. Now I am even less certain about it, but good to know
@dho @MattFlowers_PhD @UWMadScience @PublicHealthMDC @UWMadison @ExactSciences To me, this suggests that even vaccinated people should take precautions not to pass the virus on to others in our community who might be vulnerable, at least until we understand more. (end)

Finally, my analysis is on GitHub at github.com/jbloom/SARS-Co… where you can access all code, data, & paper drafts. All updates are via time-stamped commits. This ensures transparency/reproducibility of this study are not in doubt, regardless of your views on interpretation. (25/n)
In a new study, I identify and recover a deleted set of #SARSCoV2 sequences that provide additional information about viruses from the early Wuhan outbreak: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/n)
@dho So we haven't tested the limits on how low we can go, but we have been mostly doing the full length amplicons from cultured virus rather than real-world samples, which is not ideal but we are planning on trying with some serum samples soon.
