About 60% of newly emerged & re-emerging pathogens share a common origin: #animals. When we cut down the forests where they live, they roost in our backyards & farms instead. #OneHealth @dirgarambe @mdkimhsdubai @Virologist_11

Is this weird or not?

First sample of 21 - no #Nipah

Second sample of 55 - yes #Nipah and that too #FruitBats

Why?

Coz Mr Evil @BillGates has a vaccine ready only for FruitBat-carried Nipah.

@CEPIvaccines is the chosen ambassador
Next virus created by @BillGates is #Nipah + #Hendra = #Henipa

Long term plan. Vaccine under development.
