Excited to share the first study from our young lab led by Pierre Khalfi (Post-doc) and Zoé Denis (PhD student)-> a brief Twittorial--> Unraveling human, rodent and snake Kolmioviridae replication to anticipate cross-species transmission
biorxiv.org
The recent discovery of Hepatitis D (HDV) -like viruses across a wide range of taxa led to the establishment of the Kolmioviridae family. Recent studies suggest that kolmiovirids can be satellites of...

Our nice collaborative work with @lettipitko @hepojoki @timodub etc is out there now. Doesn’t provide all the answers but supports earlier studies with novel data. Remains important to figure out pathophysiology and better understand the actual public health burden.

In addition to demonstrating that 1.2x genome constructs, used earlier for HDV, initiate kolmivirid replication, we provide more evidence demonstrating that SwSCV-1 replicates and induces persistent infection in cell culture.

Hienoa, eiköhän lapsia ole jo riittävästi rajoitettu! Etäopetus | Infektioasiantuntijat vastustavat ehdotusta etäopetuksesta: ”Paitsi hyödytöntä myös kohtuutonta”:
hs.fi
Asiantuntijoiden mukaan lasten ja nuorten siirtäminen etäopetukseen ei ole koronaepidemian hallinnan kannalta oikeasuhtainen toimi.
