- Reposted by Miguel Ángel Jiménez-Clavero🌐Día Internacional de la #Preparación ante #Epidemias La preparación es importante para: ➡️Responder rápida y adecuadamente a #emergencias ➡️Proteger a los más vulnerables ➡️Lograr sistemas de #salud sólidos y resilientes ➡️Tener una sociedad informada y concienciada @csic.es @csic-vaact.bsky.social
- En 111 años la esperanza de vida al nacer en España ha pasado de 34,8 a 82,1 años gracias básicamente a: ✅Vacunas y medicamentos ✅Medicina perinatal ✅Higiene y salubridad ✅Seguridad alimentaria Sin los laboratorios (que hay gente que pide cerrar) esto no hubiera sido posible
- Recordar obviedades como esta parece absurdo, pero es necesario teniendo en cuenta la cantidad de bulos circulando, los cuales, casi sin excepción, parecen estar dirigidos a devolvernos a 1900.

- Reposted by Miguel Ángel Jiménez-ClaveroThis is bad news. It suggests reassortment of circulating H5N1 viruses with viruses containing N9 NA. Although this indicates reassortment with avian viruses, it's still bad. Reassortment makes pandemics. The last 3/4 flu pandemics (and likely 1918 too) were reassortant viruses.
