Good to see the collective wisdom of ASIDANZ come out in support of an Australian CDC - considering the majority of emerging diseases come from animal hosts, where does the Australian veterinary profession stand on this subject? Australian Veterinary Association

Hey Guardian Australia just wondering if there is a “scientific reporting standard” that requires the link to the original paper (or even the press release) to be embedded into any articles reporting on a particular study? Science nerds have needs too

Raw dog food ‘may be fuelling spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria’ Should be a no brainer to anyone with a basic understanding of food safety. But ⁦⁦The Guardian⁩ can we see a standard in the media that includes a link to the primary articles? theguardian.com/society/2021/j…

‘The existence of ‘silos’, both intra- and inter-professionally, was recognised by informants as a perpetual obstacle to operationalising One Health.’ My recent paper with @siobhanmor sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🚨 New paper out! We analysed >10,000 swab & serum samples from 75 species of Australian wild birds to reveal host range and the key role of phylogeny in explaining host range of avian influenza in wild birds. 👉 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
