Adapted from Axelsson et al. 2013 Fig 2c: Histogram showing the distribution of diploid amylase copy number in wolf (n=35, blue) and dog (n=136, red). Dogs carry more copies of the starch-digesting gene AMY2B than wolves. Additional copies make dogs better than wolves at digesting starchy foods like grains & vegetables.

Dogs evolved to eat your leftovers! Comparing dog & wolf genomes revealed dogs have up to 30 EXTRA copies of the amylase gene (AMY2B) that helps digest starch. This is a key genomic signature of living alongside humans & table scraps for thousands of years πŸ• www.nature.com/articles/nat... #2026MMM

Wastewater surveillance reveals hidden COVID spread beyond reported cases As COVID-19 testing becomes less routine, official case numbers can make outbreaks look smaller than they really are.

"Wastewater surveillance reveals hidden COVID spread beyond reported cases"

As COVID testing becomes less routine, case numbers can underestimate outbreaks. Research led by Prof Murakami shows wastewater surveillance reveals hidden spread, offering a clearer view of transmission and early warnings.

Preventing Long COVID With Metformin Chaichana et al conducted a sequential trial emulation to assess whether starting metformin after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV

β€œIn summary, 2 large, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials in highly relevant populations show that starting metformin at the time of acute infection with SARS-CoV-2 is safe and lowers the risk of developing long COVID.”

Marco represented Michael during questioning. He cannot ethically represent Nina!!!!! Conflict of interest! But I guess since there are so few lawyers in PC they ignore that!

My prediction- we know ES here short term. Ronnie gets the house and sells it to Drew. They’re in on this together. Drew delights in kicking everyone out.

They called him yesterday and he agreed Outback can live with Cody. Brook Lynn’s idea. Cody noted that this way Gio will be at the Q’s to visit Outback giving her a chance to see him. Rocco gets to see Outback while at Q’s. Lulu doesn’t have to deal with dog. Win win win.
