This trend of #COVID19 followed soon after by #rhinovirus or #enterovirus (& we have it in our 🏠 , test-confirmed) is 👎👎. The 🫁 are taking a beating. Beware, especially folks w/ #asthma & other lung diseases. Masks on. 👀 recent CDC alert: emergency.cdc.gov/han/2022/han00…. #MedTwitter
If you are age 12+, it’s been at least 2 mos since your last dose of #COVID19 #vaccine or any # of #booster dose, & you haven’t gotten your updated #Omicron bivalent #boostershot, get it! Likewise anyone 6m old & up who hasn’t had a #FluShot this fall, go get one. Same day is👌.
There is unfortunately no vaccine vs #rhinovirus or #enterovirus. For that, our best bet is to improve air quality (open windows if possible, Corsi-Rosenthal boxes, etc), #MaskUp, & try to get those around us to #WearAMask too. Really concerned for folks with #asthma etc like us.

Can a respiratory #virus infection confer #immunity against the other #respiratory virus? A much-debated issue in the virus immunology for many decades. What is the probable immune mechanism & does it indeed exist? What is the evidence for & against this hypothesis? 1/
It is hypothesized that a respiratory virus infection confers immunity against the same and other respiratory viruses for a short time, perhaps a few weeks. This immunologic mechanism, known as #heterosubtypic ‘temporary non-specific immunity’ 2/
This immune protection is associated with activation of the innate immune response to viral infection mediated by the release of Type I #interferons (IFN) & other cytokines that have broad protective effects against a range of viruses 3/

V Enouf > tous les virus respiratoires ne sont pas cultivables lorsqu'on n'arrive pas à les isoler. Ca relevait aussi de ce pbme, même si le virus du rhume semblait avoir été identifié à ce moment-là (1960) #LaMethSci
V Enouf > une centaine de rhinovirus existent et notre système immunitaire ne les connaît pas tous, c'est pourquoi on contracte des rhumes tout au long de notre vie. Les enfants sont plus touchés car ils ont moins rencontré de virus durant leur vie comparé aux adultes #LaMethSci

🔵slow cell/antigen based testing to PCR-based testing has vastly improved speed - notsomuch in surveillance setting
🔵 #Flu viruses not the only game in town

#ais2019bris
🔵What is "important" among RespVs
🔵34% of US kids in childcare (24% in AUS)
🔵Seattle #flu study (2018-2019)
🔵identify importation, within-host evolution, compare clinical characteristics & improve understanding in certain populations
#ais2019bris
🔵So, in childcare...
🔵things are easier now compared to decades past (e.g. Paul Glezen, only detect 31% of infections)
🔵then, newer molecular methods found 4.2 symptomatic virus episodes/child
🔵now, 103 enrolled , half the embers of each room
