Really proud to share our preprint describing early adaptation of H5N1 to US dairy cattle, and showing how these mutations enhance the ability of the virus to infect other mammals, such as pigs and humans. With @influenzal.bsky.social @vidhid.bsky.social @drclairesmith.bsky.social and many more!

Thanks @ausvirologysoc.bsky.social for a great meeting. Where else can you turn the evolution of flu A vs flu B strains as described by @marioskoutsakos.bsky.social into a dance move. Having Jenna Guthmiller here from the US was a highlight for me! See you all in Adelaide in 2026

I have a few brief thoughts on this just released Science paper on the adaptation potential of bovine #H5N1 HA. Its very good work by very good group at Scripps! Think people need to be cautious in assessing the actualized risk out of this one study. #influenza www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Next up is Marios Koutsakos @marioskoutsakos.bsky.social who is presenting Antigenic evolution of the influenza B virus HA over 80 years of circulation in humans. Marios has apologised for only including one phylogenetic tree in his talk in this evolutionary virology session. #AVS12

I've made a starter pack for Aussie virologists joining Bluesky at #AVS12. Let me know if you would like to be added- please share 🤗 @ausvirologysoc.bsky.social go.bsky.app/FgBEzfc
