Hace pocos días nos despertamos con varias noticias sobre la gravedad de un “peligroso hongo asesino, superresistente y que mata en 90 días” 😖 ¿Qué es “Candida auris” y cuál es el motivo de esta alarma? 🚨 Hoy hablamos de #hongos 👏 Abro hilo ⬇️🧵⬇️ @ucc_complutense
Empecemos presentando a nuestra protagonista 🎬 “Candida auris” es una levadura (un hongo unicelular) que se aisló por primera vez en 2009 de una infección de oído en Japón. Actualmente, se ha extendido rápidamente por todo el mundo y ya se ha detectado en más de 30 países 🗺️
El @CDCgov lleva avisando de su importancia desde 2016 y alertando de que es imprescindible extremar las precauciones en los centros de atención sanitaria porque “Candida auris” se propaga con mucha facilidad. Su mortalidad puede alcanzar hasta el 60% en algunas regiones 😟

#TheLastOfUs saison 1 c’est fini. Moins sexy mais plus réelle qu’une pandémie zombie : l’émergence et la dissémination actuelle du champignon pathogène #Trichophyton indotineae 🍄. Qu’est ce que c’est ? ⬇️ 1/11
Il y a peu on connaissait bien deux espèces presque indiscernables sans analyse génétique : (1) Trichophyton interdigitale qui donne le très fréquent « pied d’athlète » et se transmet d’homme à homme. Photo @anofel_france 2/11
Et (2) Trichophyton mentagrophytes qui se transmet de l’animal à l’homme avec des lésions de la peau très inflammatoires car mal adapté à l’hôte humain. Photo @anofel_france 3/11

Сериал #TheLastOfUs закончился! Если у вас нет сил ждать второй сезон, можно скоротать время за книгами и фильмами, которые вдохновили авторов истории Элли и Джоэла:
«Старикам тут не место». Ветеран войны во Вьетнаме находит деньги наркокартеля и присваивает их себе. Теперь его словно терминатор преследует наёмный убийца Антон Чигур
Авторы TLoU хотели сделать реалистичную боевую систему. Не потасовки в духе Uncharted или Call of Duty, а жёсткие и напряженные эпизоды, где каждый выстрел может стать последним. «Старики» подали идеальную форму для замысла

On a serious note regarding #TheLastOfUs . I’m not sure even the creators understand the significance of Joel’s choice. By refusing to sacrifice Ellie for humanity/vaccine, he didn’t compromise his humanity — he solidified it. He proved that humanity wasn’t gone.
If we get to the point where we are willing to kill children for the hope of a better world, then we have lost our humanity, and there is no point in developing a vaccine because the essential thing that makes us human is gone.
And if we are willing to kill our OWN children for that world??? We are truly depraved and beyond hope. Humanity is about balancing the needs of the collective with the individual. When the collective demands innocent blood, we cease to have humanity.

Para mim, #TheLastOfUs foi bem legal, mas acho um delírio coletivo essa quantidade de pessoas dizendo que se trata de uma série excelente.

A impressão que tenho é que os inúmeros elogios vem de pessoas que preenchem as lacunas da série com a experiência que tiveram no jogo.
A construção da cena final acabou sendo artificial. É uma cópia da cena final do jogo. Mas no jogo, o "depois de tudo que passamos" faz muito mais sentido.
Em The Walking Dead, quando somos expostos ao destino de Sophie naquela cena incrível e mega emocionante no celeiro, mesmo depois de uma segunda temporada terrível, essa cena emociona cada expectador. Fomos envolvidos com os personagens. A gente se importa com eles.

Leto 1963.

Mikrobiolog na TV: "Ne, ne, ne bojim se bakterij in virusov. Bojim se gliv."

🍄🍄🍄
(1/17)
Že dober mesec dni na HBO-ju predvajajo serijo Zadnji med nami, #TheLastOfUs. Priredba videoigre je hitro postala uspešnica. V njej se znajdemo v letu 1963, ko raziskovalec mikrobiologije napove, da se bolj kot bakterij in virusov boji gliv. (2/17)
Potem se znajdemo v letu 2013, ko se po vsem svetu ljudje okužijo z glivo Cordyceps in se spremenijo v zombije, katerih edina želja je ugriz v sveže človeško meso. (3/17)

Hay una cosa que nos llama mucho la atención de las reacciones al último episodio de #TheLastOfUs.

Alerta de Spoilers.

En el último episodio, además de sufrir violencia física, Ellie sufre un intento de violación. 1/5 Image
Ella reacciona violentamente y logra matar a su agresor. ¿Todos podemos empatizar con ella? ¿Verdad?

¿Entonces por qué nos cuesta tanto empatizar con las mujeres en latinoamérica cuando se manifiestan por la violencia sistemática que sufren?

Según el Inegi... Image
para el caso mexicano, la violencia sexual es prevalente en la mitad de las mujeres. O sea, la mitad de las mujeres en México sufre violencia sexual de manera constante.

¿ lo peor? Lo normalizada de esta violencia en la sociedad, especialmente en las autoridades. 3/5

❓ POURQUOI il n'y a pas beaucoup d'infectés dans la série #TheLastOfUs

Le Thread sera séparé en 3 parties :

▫️ 𝗟𝗘 𝗝𝗘𝗨 (Spoil uniquement sur ce qu'on a vu dans la série)

▫️ 𝗟𝗔 𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗘

▫️ 𝗟𝗘 𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗧𝗔𝗕𝗟𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗕𝗟𝗘𝗠𝗘

▫️ 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗖𝗟𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗢𝗡
▫️ 𝗟𝗘 𝗝𝗘𝗨

Les infectés sont souvent un prétexte pour avoir du gameplay, ce qui est normal pour un jeu.

A chaque rencontre nous avons une pression puisque c'est le joueur qui contrôle Joël, ils sont extrêmement nombreux mais...
Il n'y a pas de hordes, hormis dans les scènes scriptées (moment du sniper par exemple)

MAIS il ne faut pas oublier que les infectés sont, certes le contexte de l'univers, mais ils sont clairement pas au 1er plan, donc pas sujet principal là où l'Humain est bien plus présent.

L'épisode 6 de #TheLastOfUsHBO est enfin sorti ! Comme chaque lundi on compare le jeu et la série afin de trouver les différences/ressemblances ainsi que certains easter-egg ! Un gros programme nous attend avec cet épisode fantastique !

Comme toujours, Endure & Survive ! {🧵}
L'épisode débute par un flashback des événements du dernier épisode (une première dans la série), ce dernier sert à créer une ellipse pour la suite et bien sûr, remuer le couteau dans la plaie…
Ainsi nous avons donc une grosse ellipse (trois mois) et nous passons directement de l'été à l'hiver ! A savoir que le jeu est découpé en saison et que la mort de Sam & Henry signifie la fin de l'été et donc le début de l'automne. Ici l'automne est donc skippé !

Episode 6: Kin

Bisa ga sih minta kompensasi emotional damage ke HBO 😭😭

Di episode ini kita ikutin Joel dan Ellie yang akhirnya reunited dengan Tommy setelah 3 bulan perjalanan. Image
Untuk story nya, episode ini bener bener nge-highlight relationship Joel dan Ellie yang kompleks. Anak bukan, Bapak bukan, Strangers juga bukan, saling sayang iya🥹. Pedro Pascal dan Bella Ramsey berhasil nunjukin relationship itu. Image
Episode ini juga ngeliatin kalau Joel (walaupun kadang keliatan OP) is just human. bisa sakit, bisa cemas, bisa takut. Dan walaupun ga dibilang secara langsung, ekspresi-ekspresi kecil dari Joel nunjukin kalau dia takut kehilangan Ellie 🥲

Salut banget sama acting Pedro Pascal Image

I know it’s about to turn way up though, it’s been too calm.

Nah man that scene was nuts, I didn’t expect it to turn up like THAT.
That ending… damn you #TheLastOfUs wtf

Other than getting to work with creative geniuses who I respect and admire (Neil & Craig) the thing that excited me most about doing #TheLastOfUs is that my casting suggested the possibility of a future in which people start listening to the person with the best ideas
Not the coolest or the toughest person. The organiser. The person who knows where everything is. The person who is doing the planning. The person who can multitask. The one who’s decisive
Women, and especially women in leadership positions, are scrutinized incessantly. Her voice is too shrill. Her voice is too quiet. She pays too much attention to how she looks. She doesn’t pay enough attention to how she looks. She’s too angry. She’s not angry enough

Quality advice in this thread. 🥰👇 (1) “Most die only once” (Covid acute-phase CFR will decrease); (2) “Most deadly pathogens self-eradicate” (Milder is wilder).

(2) Hence what I call the Unthinkable: pop culture - #TheLastOfUs - trained us to think extreme. Reality is subtler.
never mind the emojis or memes. This is cutting edge science, probably among humanity’s top few causes of death 👇
I have questions, because this is literally every @RealCheckMarker thread.

Beautiful storytelling. (1) Do people know #TheLastOfUs isn't just about love and zombies? Some viral and many bacterial infections can lead to encephalitis. E patients are walking brain-dead. Happens often in hospitals.

Note masks on set: the SARS pandemic isn't over in Canada. Image
Rabies takes weeks to months to lead to encephalitis. Rapid onset would make outbreaks self-limiting. Long incubation times would allow a global zombie epidemic IF rabies acquired the immune evasion superpower of SARS-CoV-2 (Orf8).

@Neil_Druckmann stretches reality—but not much.

Czy grzyby zamieniające ludzi w Zombie, w rodzaju tych z #LastOfUsHBO faktycznie mogą istnieć? Można by powiedzieć: i tak... i nie. Znamy wiele gatunków grzybów (ale także pierwotniaków czy nawet zwierząt!) modyfikujących zachowanie ofiar... także ludzi🙂
Moja nitka w temacie🧵
W serialu #TheLastOfUs jeden z ekspertów wyjaśnia, że grzyby nie stanowią dla nas zagrożenia, bo nie mogą żyć w temp. wyższej niż 34 stopnie. Niestety nie jest to prawda, bo znamy już przypadki blisko spokr.grzybów, które infekują także ludzi! Ale czy idzie za tym coś więcej?2/10
Rodzaje Basidiobolus i Conidiobolus to grzyby zaliczane do Owadomorkowców, czyli rodziny obejmującej grzyby infekujące (jak sama nazwa wskazuje) głównie owady. W przypadku niektórych gatunków z tej grupy dowiedziono już jednak, że potrafią modyfikować zachowanie swoich ofiar

All the love for Linda Ronstadt on this app today is so beautiful to see. From the first time I heard her sing “Blue Bayou” — on the Muppet Show no less! — I was hooked. I never had a chance. 🧵1/
As a singer myself, I’ve always been inspired and intimidated in equal measure by Linda’s warm, flawless tone (the sound of moonlight) and her dynamic and emotional range — not to mention the sheer power of her instrument, and the remarkable delicacy with which she uses it. 2/
Her mammoth catalog of impeccable pop, rock and country classics would be more than enough for any artist’s career. But then she rocked the world by recording 3 exquisite albums of songs from the Great American Songbook, with Nelson Riddle. 3/

#TheLastOfUs #TheLastOfUsHBO Spoilers

🧵 Analysis of Bill & Frank's Lovers' Journey, based on Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés' #WomenWhoRunWithTheWolves
"Wise stories... describe love as a union of two beings whose strength together enables one or both to enter into communication with the soul-world and to participate in fate as a dance with life and death."

- Chapter 5, Hunting: When the Heart is a Lonely Hunter, Dr. Estés
2/
In her retelling of The Skeleton Woman, Dr. Estés describes the titular character as the third party in any romance, Lady Death, who represents the Life/Death/Life cycle with which the lovers must be in communion if they hope to have any longevity.

Porque los antifungicos no funcionan en #TheLastOfUs

Y porque deberiamos estar atentos:
1/ Los antifungicos son medicamentos que se utilizan para tratar las infecciones fúngicas. Actúan al interrumpir la síntesis de la pared celular del hongo.
2/ Existen diferentes tipos de antifungicos, como los polienos, azoles, griseofulvina y terbinafina, cada uno con mecanismos de acción específicos.

I have just finished watching the second episode of #TheLastOfUs and I have two opinions.

First, I’m a science-fiction fan and I love weaving the creative elements of fungi into the narrative.

But let’s get real. Cordyceps can not infect humans. Image
But all organisms must eat. There are animals that are predatory. There are plants that are predatory. There are fungi that are predatory. We are all part of a giant food web where we are sustained by each other.
This is fiction weaved info a theme speckled with mycology and exploiting Mycophobia: the fear of fungi. It is natural for humans to fear that which is powerful but mysterious and misunderstood.

No segundo episódio de #TheLastOfUs , as autoridades de Jacarta questionam uma especialista em fungos se haveria algum remédio ou vacina contra o fungo Ophiocordyceps.

O que sabemos de vacinas contra fungos? Se não o Ophiocordyceps, quais fungos devemos nos preocupar?👇🧶
O fio NÃO TERÁ SPOILERS da série! Pode ler sossegado!

E quem perdeu o primeiro fio sobre se uma pandemia de Cordyceps poderia ser factível, comentei aqui:
Os fungos tem importância para a nossa saúde (tanto pensando em segurança alimentar, quanto em outros tipos de infecções fúngicas).

Apesar de termos um número considerável de fungos que causam doenças em humanos, não temos vacinas contra fungos aprovadas no momento

Второй эпизод #TheLastOfUs — это шикарное признание в любви к зараженным. Как это устроено:
В оригинале инфицированные представлены исключительно как угроза. Они нападают на героев при первой возможности, избивают и рвут их на части. Игрок от лица Джоэла всегда хочет как можно скорее от них избавиться и двигаться дальше
Но в сериале можно отразить разные перспективы. Например, показать природную гармонию, в которой нет места для людей, но есть для зараженных.

Авторы начинают с малого: в затопленном отеле герои встречают милых уток, музицирующую лягушку и скелет человека

No 2º episódio da série #TheLastOfUs é mencionado um poder incrível que os fungos têm. E que é muito importante pra ecologia.

Segue o fio pra entender... (e tem leves SPOILERS!) (+) #HBO #TheLastOfUsHBO #fungos Image
Nesse episódio é revelado que o fungo dos Infectados podem comunicarem-se pelas raízes. De fato: na vida real os fungos se comunicam pelo subsolo. Inclusive aqueles que se conectam com raízes de plantas (+) Image
A ecóloga Suzanne Simard estudou isso em florestas do Canadá. Ela suspeitava que duas espécies de árvores (bétulas e abetos) "conversavam entre si" por baixo do solo (+) Image
