Los Simpson y su predicción del Hantavirus en el crucero



Swiss authorities have confirmed a case of #hantavirus identified in a passenger from the MV Hondius cruise ship. He had responded to an email from the ship’s operator informing the passengers of the health event, and presented himself to a hospital in Zurich, Switzerland, and is receiving care. In line with the International Health Regulations (IHR), WHO is working with relevant countries to support international contact tracing, to ensure that those potentially exposed are monitored and that any further disease spread is limited. The type of virus in this outbreak has been confirmed as Andes hantavirus by the National Institute for Communicable Diseases @nicd_sa, South Africa and the Geneva University Hospitals @hug_ge, Switzerland The support of the Institut Pasteur de Dakar @PasteurDakar, Senegal and the Administración Nacional de Laboratorios e Institutos de Salud @ANLIS_Malbran, Argentina has also been critical in responding to this event. As of 6 May, there are 8 cases, 3 of whom are confirmed as hantavirus by laboratory testing. WHO will continue to work with countries to ensure that the patients, contacts, passengers and crew have the information and support they need to stay safe and prevent spread.

🚨 Scientists just watched a battery reaction happen at single-ion resolution. Read that again. Not whole electrodes. Not particles. Individual ion-level behavior. A new optical nanoscopy method called ION lets researchers see how zinc metal strips inside batteries in real time. And the big surprise? Battery reactions are not as uniform as we assumed. Even “well-ordered” zinc surfaces show hidden subparticle chaos — tiny regions reacting differently, cooperatively, and unevenly. Why this matters: Better zinc batteries More reversible anodes Fewer dendrites Cheaper, safer energy storage This is the future of battery science: Not guessing what materials do… but watching the hidden physics unfold as it happens. If we can see the ion, we can redesign the battery. Follow me I track where physics becomes technology.
