D-D-D-D-DENGUE!!! 📢📢📢
Vengo con un PSA y si lo pongo en mi blog no lo ve nadie:
la campaña de vacunación contra el dengue en la provincia de Buenos Aires está abierta para todos los residentes de la provincia entre 15 y 59 años independientemente de que hayan tenido dengue o no. Por lo que me dijeron la campaña termina este mes y esperan el pico de casos entre marzo y abril, así que aprovechen a vacunarse gratis ahora que después la dosis sale como 200 lucas.
Sé que CABA también estaba vacunando pero no sé si a todos ni si sigue, y el resto de las provincias ni idea.
Nada, eso.
Gracias!!!
The presence of non-neutralizing antibodies of any dengue serotype increases the severity of subsequent infection by other dengue serotypes.
special thanks to the Rusty Quill Gaming podcast for saving my sanity while I spent over a week so sick I could barely move. and also distracting me during my IV treatment yesterday
ITS MOSQUITO SEASON ALREADY WHAT THE FUCK KILL MEEEEEEEEEE
Cases so far are up 140 percent compared to this point last year.
Article date: March 27, 2024.
Article Excerpt:
Puerto Rico has declared a public health emergency amid an ongoing outbreak of dengue infections, a mosquito-spread viral infection that can cause fever, aches, rash, vomiting, and, in about 5 percent of cases, a severe disease marked by internal bleeding and shock.
The US territory has tallied 549 cases since the start of the year, representing a 140 percent increase compared with cases tallied at this point last year, according to the territory's health department. The Associated Press reported that more than 340 of the 549 cases have been hospitalized.
To com suspeita d denguekk pqp acho q to fudido a prova d recuperação era essa semana, nem sei c eles deixam eu fzr outro dia 💔
Head to Mosquitos
Female mosquitos get all the attention. They’re the ones with a thirst for blood, whose bite can transmit harmful pathogens causing diseases like malaria. Here though, focus turns to the more placid males as part of a huge study into the types of cells in the insects. A worldwide team of researchers mapped out a 'cell atlas' of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, using a technique called single-nucleus RNA sequencing to look for the genes switched on in structures all over the body, like this antenna (shown here with nuclei in blue). Although the atlas yields surprising similarities between the genomes of male and female flies, genes expressed in the antenna are an example of sexual dimorphism, perhaps suggesting different ways in which males and females sense the environment. The publicly-available atlas will no doubt help other groups of researchers learn more about mosquitos and stem the spread of diseases.
