Take a look back at last semester when several CEID faculty (Adam Hume, PhD 🦇🔬🧬☣️, Jessica Leibler, Michael Dietze Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH, Dr. Nahid Bhadelia, & David Hamer) spoke at Office of Research, Boston University Research on Tap: Climate Change and Infectious Diseases. spr.ly/6015iWXMX
Dairy cows infected with #H5N1 have generally had mild, non-life-threatening symptoms. However, as Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH explains, severity of symptoms has varied by species. We don't yet know if it could become more severe in humans. Watch full webinar at: spr.ly/6011eoIQx
Yesterday Dr. Nahid Bhadelia, Dr. John Connor, Jessica Leibler, Lauren Sauer, Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH, & Alessandro Vespignani discussed what measures still need to be taken to limit the spread of #H5N1 & what is currently known about this virus.

Sarah Downs 🇿🇦 NEIDL Alessandro Vespignani Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH Jessica Leibler Thank you for attending and contributing!
Dr. Nahid Bhadelia NEIDL Alessandro Vespignani Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH Jessica Leibler Really great discussion, thank you all for giving us your time.
She adds however, that general population pet owners who keep their cats indoors do not have significant reason to be concerned about their pets contracting H5N1. As always, pets allowed outdoors should not be allowed near dead wildlife. Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH
In farms where many types of animals are in frequent contact, #H5N1 has more opportunities to spread species to species. On dairy farms, barn cats have been found to contract H5N1 & display similar symptoms as infected cows, explains Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH.
We're live on Zoom with Dr. Nahid Bhadelia, Dr. John Connor, Jessica Leibler, Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH, & Alessandro Vespignani discussing #H5N1, what's known so far and what still needs to be better understood for effective prevention of transmissions. spr.ly/6012jdUfs
Hear more about #H5N1 prevention from Dr. Nahid Bhadelia & other Boston-based experts, Dr. John Connor NEIDL, Jessica Leibler, Kayoko Shioda, PhD, DVM, MPH, & Alessandro Vespignani at our webinar, "H5N1: What do we know so far?" today at 10am EST. bu.edu/ceid/2024/04/2…
