PSA: POLIO IS SPREADING
In case no one has mentioned it, #poliovirus is making the rounds. 32 countries recommend you update your vaccinations if you plan to travel.
Since the world may be at war soon, you might want to check all your shots.

2,3-Bis(acetylmercaptomethyl)#quinoxaline (BAMMQ) is an #antiviralAgent which inhibits #poliovirus #RNASynthesis #inVitro and #inVivo and inhibits #humanHerpesvirus1 multiplication in vitro. It does not interfere with attachment, penetration or #DNASynthesis.
Promotional graphic for a January 15 episode of the Disability Daily Podcast featuring Dr. Al-Singace. The poster includes the podcast logo and a background of the Bahraini flag, with a photo showing Dr. Al-Singace seated in a wheelchair during a public demonstration, accompanied by several people walking alongside him. Text identifies him as a Bahraini mechanical engineer, polio survivor, and human rights activist.
Today on the #Disability Daily #Podcast we celebrate #Bahraini #polio survivor, mechanical #engineer & human rights activist Dr. Abduljalil Al-Singace!

Germany's public health agency @rki.de has posted today's update on the discovery of wild #poliovirus in wastewater in Hamburg in English. Vaccination rates in Hamburg are quite high — 81% by age 2, 91% by age 6. It's estimated 80% coverage is needed for herd immunity. www.rki.de/EN/Topics/In...
Wild #Poliovirus has been detected for the first time in more than 30 years in #water samples from sewage in #Germany
No human #infection has been detected
The discovery is a setback for the fight to eradicate the #virus globally, #Polio is preventable with vaccination.

"Kinderlähmung ist bitter. Schluckimpfung süß". Die #Kinderlähmung die als ausgerottet galt, ist zurück. RKI fand Spuren im Abwasser. Verdacht, dass das #Poliovirus bereits, noch unerkannt, in Menschen schlummert. Wahnhaftes Denken und Wissenschaftsfeindlichkeit haben die Gefahr zurückgebracht.

We’re seeing suboptimal vaccination coverage, a tenfold increase in #measles cases, and even the detection of vaccine-derived #poliovirus in 4 EU/EEA countries.
These are clear signals that we need to step up our efforts to maintain high immunisation coverage & protect everyone.

International and national efforts must combine to safeguard polio workers and ensure disease eradication. A united front is essential!

Du #poliovirus dérivé de souche vaccinale a été identifié, en fin d'année dernière, dans les eaux usées de 16 villes de cinq pays européens (carte ci-dessous).
Aucun cas de polio humaine n'a été recensé, mais c'est la preuve que le virus circule en Europe.
