For those interested in #SARSCoV2 #VariantsOfConcern check out @meyerslab latest report. We use quantitative PCR data from a university testing program to estimate prevalence and growth rate of B.1.1.7 among positive cases on @UTAustin campus https://covid-19.tacc.utexas.edu/publications/ 1/9
Can we predict the outbreak of infectious diseases like Ebola or COVID-19? Join us 3/24 at Noon, when @drake_lab will describe the tools used to detect disease spillover. Register at https://tinyurl.com/2ch5zaua (Rescheduled from 3/10, no need to re-register if previously RSVP'd)
Globally, we’re facing a severe COVID-19 vaccine shortage. Dose-sparing strategies could save lives. An argument against these strategies is that they might increase vaccine escape. We think these evolutionary impacts deserve a closer look, and could actually go the other way.
A new profile explores how the study of ecology could prevent, or better prepare us for, the next pandemic, and how CEID is training the next generation of disease experts.

The University of Georgia's Center for the Ecology of Infectious Diseases is showing how the study of ecology could help prevent the next pandemic.

Our latest preprint, which revises the SARS CoV-2 transmission bottleneck estimates presented in Popa & Genger et al. 2020, is up today
Reanalysis of deep-sequencing data from Austria points towards a small SARS-COV-2 transmission bottleneck on the order of one to three virions
An early analysis of SARS-CoV-2 deep-sequencing data that combined epidemiological and genetic data to characterize the transmission dynamics of the v...
