🔵 UTAS

Program vaksinasi dan sterilisasi hewan penular rabies di Jakarta perlu ditingkatkan karena Ibu Kota dikelilingi daerah endemi rabies. Di Jakarta, kasus gigitan hewan penular rabies juga masih tinggi. Simak selengkapnya dalam utas berikut.

Meski kasus rabies sudah tidak lagi diketemukan di Jakarta dan Tangerang, upaya antisipasi terus dilakukan. Vaksinasi dan sterilisasi secara gratis dilakukan agar hewan semakin terproteksi dari penyakit rabies.

I went to #Islamabad #PIMS a day earlier and asked for rabies #vaccine, #rabies is a deadly virus and there's 100% chance a person will die if vaccination isn't administered on time. However, the person in the picture, at #PIMS's pharmacy,

told me very arrogantly to buy and administer the vaccine somewhere else. When I asked for his name, he hesitated, but when I insisted, he said I'm the director and there is no one you can go to and complain.

I requested him that I can afford the vaccine but what about those who may not afford the same, and that I am a citizen of #Pakistan and I am aware of my rights, thus let me lodge a formal complaint to the relevant department so the problem may soon be resolved.

Working theory, "Show replies" at the end for all.

Is SARS-CoV-2 a lab-created chimera?

A Frankenstein virus created from the genetic material of other lethal organisms, creating similar pathophysiological mechanisms in the body?

Gene sequences say YES >
The SC2 spike protein contains gene sequences that are homologous to those found in HIV, SEB, animal venoms, herpes, malaria, rabies and more.
The sequences from these organisms could release toxic peptides and pathophysiological mechanisms in the body similar to those found >
in the original lethal organisms.
Mechanisms are chemical recipes, like baking recipes.
A list of instructions from the genes that, when followed, produce a unique product like micro clots or a cytokine storm.

Just as a recipe for 🎃 pie produces 🎃 and not 🍎 pie. >

🗳Given the multitude of 🦠 pathogens that cause behavioral changes (even mental illness), including #rabies, #Lyme, #toxoplasmosis, #Trypanosoma, etc, I am curious how many are noticing behavioral changes with Covid.

What do you observe?
“Join us as we share tales of some of the creepiest parasites around — those that control the brains of their human hosts, sometimes leaving insanity and death in their wake. These are the tales of neurological parasites.”

The many strains of Wolbachia can do amazing things to their insect hosts: change their sex, kill their offspring, and poss even create new species. And, in the process, they might just provide enough benefits for their hosts to make it all worthwhile. arstechnica.com/science/2011/1…

1) Have you ever seen a case of rabies?

I saw two cases 5 years back and they have stayed with me since.

I do not fear any disease per se but I am not ashamed to say that I dread rabies --> it is a terrible affliction.
2) The first patient was a small child of around 7 years old --> he had been bitten by a street dog around 1 month back. But his family had opted for natural healers.

When he was brought in, he was crying uncontrollably with a terror stricken expression on his face.
3) Hydrophobia, as commonly believed, is not so common in these cases. Why you ask?

Its because these patients are so extremely agitated and combative, its very difficult to get close to them, let alone make them drink water.

It’s been a real Rabies/Lyssavirus week for me. And whenever that happens, I’m always amazed how much of an absolute operator the virus is. Some of it’s basic abilities include - Fooling your body into reducing its immune response (considering these viruses are 100% fatal….
…that’s quite the evolutionary achievement). One of the ways it does this is by inhibiting your body’s ability to produce B-interferon, which is a vital part of our immune machinery. In fact the #rabies virus has a whole chunk of its genome dedicated to doing just that….
…Rabies/lyssavirus also heads straight for your brain, where it increases the concentration of nitric oxide by about 25 times. That leads to a LOT of CNS overexcitement and it decreases your ability to fight off cell death; bad news when that’s happening in your 🧠……

1. Some unsettling #rabies exposure stories in a post from the invaluable @ProMED_mail tonight.
Some people in RI were feeding a raccoon that later testing showed was infected with rabies.
People: Do not feed raccoons. They do not need your help. local21news.com/newsletter-dai…
2. A grey cat that was hanging around a campground in Frederick County, Md, tested positive for #rabies. There were reports the cat was biting & scratching people between Aug 24 & Sept 3. People exposed or people whose pets were exposed to the cat should contact their MD or vet.
3. A link to the cat story here.

1. Earlier this week @CDCgov served notice it is suspending importation of dogs from countries with a high canine #rabies risk.
An event happened this week that is a stark illustration of why CDC is taking that step.
A thread.
2. The day @CDCgov's notice appeared in the Federal Register, a Pennsylvania lab reported that a dog imported to the US from Azerbaijan on June 10 tested positive for #rabies. This is exactly what the new policy is trying to prevent.
3. The dog was part of a shipment of 33 dogs & 1 cat. Those animals will have to be found & quarantined for months. Animals that have been in contact with them may need to be revaxxed against #rabies. This is a TON of work. The animals were distributed across 8 states.

1/ This week we spotlight Dr Katie Hampson (@hampson_katie): lead investigator, aka the boss, of @rabidbites research! Katie is a brilliant researcher and inspirational to the team. She's far too modest to list her achievements so we're gonna do it for her...
#WomenInSTEM
2/ Katie is a research scientist at the University of Glasgow, UK. She completed her PhD at Princeton University, USA, before returning to the UK on a @wellcometrust fellowship, where she continues to be funded by Wellcome. gla.ac.uk/researchinstit…
3/ Her research interests lie broadly in the ecology of infectious disease but she has dedicated much of her career to a largely neglected one: #rabies.

The study concludes that the exploitation of natural habitats is not only a conservation issue, but an important driver of spillover transmission zoonotic viruses. Here is a thread that discusses three key points highlighted from study.
