Referring to avian influenza A viruses, like H5N1: --> “Conservative estimates suggest that such a pandemic could result in up to 350 million deaths globally” We're not upgrading ventilation and filtration in buildings fast enough (yes, and other things, but this is where my focus is)

In any outbreak, the most important question is: 💬 “HOW DOES IT SPREAD?” Get it wrong & everything breaks down. Insisting on the wrong answer to this most fundamental question may well be worse than not having an answer at all. Thank you, @j_g_allen theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/05/…

"In any outbreak, the single most important question is: How does it spread?,” @j_g_allen writes. We got it wrong at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, with hantavirus, we're getting it wrong again: theatln.tc/sT7M4SPA 📸: Andres Gutierrez / Anadolu / Getty

GDP per capita in Africa vs China in 1980 vs 2016. Is it because Africa is the easiest continent to exploit?

The key Figure from a 2020 publication on a hantavirus outbreak, buried in the supplement of the paper. @donmilton, an international authority on airborne transmission and respiratory viruses, discussed this with me yesterday. erictopol.substack.com/p/assessment-o…

@ClareCraigPath Dr Craig, when dealing with a disease which has a case fatality rate of around 40% and which has shown clear evidence of the possibility of airborne transmission, would you say you’re more in favour of ‘the school of wishful thinking’ or ‘the school of precautionary principle’?

Outbreak Updates@outbreakupdates·
The non-Zaire signal is important. If this is Sudan or Bundibugyo ebolavirus, the countermeasure picture changes fast because much of the modern vaccine playbook is built around Zaire ebolavirus.

It's widely accepted that hantavirus transmits from rodent excreta to humans via inhalation of aerosolized virus, so I don't understand why we're so reluctant to acknowledge the inhalation route for human-to-human transmission. nytimes.com/2026/05/14/hea…

Do you know how much better off we'd be if, for every single one of these outbreaks, we simply collected info about the state of the building/ship mechanical system? --> How much ventilation? What type of filtration? This happened all through covid, and we were trying to get people to notice: From our Lancet Covid-19 Commission report on this: --> "A famous maxim in the business world is that we can’t manage what we don’t measure. The same applies for the medical and scientific fields. For an infectious disease that spreads through the air, a cluster investigation that does not include an assessment of the design, operation, and objective performance of the building’s ventilation system is incomplete. We are failing to collect valuable information on these outbreaks, and therefore are missing an opportunity to fully understand disease transmission dynamics – an understanding which can help inform decisions regarding the most effective risk reduction interventions in offices, schools, healthcare, manufacturing, and more."

I slipped something in here that's so important and needs to be corrected going forward: --> "Every outbreak investigation involves careful clinical workups, painstaking epidemiology, re-created time-activity patterns, and genomic sequencing—but almost every time, without fail, the investigators ignore the actual space where the outbreak took place. Was the cruise ship’s ventilation system working? What filters did it have, and were they running?" It's not just the cruise ship. Anyone find any building info related to the birthday party outbreak? How about the subsequent funeral/wake where 10 people got infected? I read the Supplemental Info up and down - nuthin... Happened all through covid, too.

@Kamau266 Unpopular opinion but plain facts. A tycoon would rather flash being the first owner of a Tesla or Tri fold Samsung instead of a plant that manufacturers standard Mobile phones. Am sure they hate Dangote for this.
