Well done @drparul09vet for your brilliant talk yesterday on sequential infection of IAV and SARS-CoV-2 at @MicrobioSoc 👏🏼 #Microbio24
Huge thank you to @SheepVetsoc for having me to talk about our work on OvHV-2 at their Autumn meeting in Glasgow. Some great talks and a lovely conference 🐑
Great talk from @Joe_Angell1 on our work sheep associated malignant catarrhal fever, lots more exciting data to come!
At #WBC2022, come read about our hamster model for OvHV-2 if you’re around!
If you are at #WBC2022 Come and see @InfluEllie and her poster! She has developed a small animal model of #MCF infection to enable vaccine work which is urgently needed to control this disease. @molvirol @FlockHealth @LivUni @LivUni_IVES

Researchers in Ukraine: the German @AvHStiftung has opened their funding opportunity for researchers in danger for you. You can apply with a German host until 18 March. I would be more than happy to host you @unibt/ help you find a host. #IStandWithUkraine

Contributing to the story that Omicron appears to be less pathogenic. It will be interesting to see more studies on this and see how it translates to #LongCovid in the new year
With yet another in vivo study of Omicron infection today, it sure is looking that this variant has less virulence, less chance of inducing Covid pneumonia👍
New report: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Added to our immunity wall and T cell defense, this is all good.
New data from our amazing team showing Omicron produces less severe disease than Pango B and Delta SARS-CoV-2 variants in a mouse model 🐭 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Data from @molvirol lab shows K18-hACE2 mice infected with #SARS_CoV_2 #Omicron variant lose less weight, show recovery and have lower viral loads than animals infected with Delta or PangoB viruses molecularvirology.org/PDF/hA… @_AndrewOwen_ @LivUni_IVES

Dealing with another #MCF outbreak in #cattle . Note the blue tinge to the lower part of the eye (corneal oedema) in this suspected case. @molvirol @InfluEllie #vet
So proud of our little team smashing out the sequencing 🤍🧬
After a tough few days at the end of last week, things are looking up! proud of the team effort & enjoying our favourite new toy from @nanopore
