Virology Live #22: Emerging viruses

An emerging virus may be a new virus acquired from a non-human animal, a previously unrecognized virus, or a virus with an expanded disease pattern or host range. In this session we discuss the factors that drive virus emergence, followed by a description of emerging virus infection including those caused by poliovirus, Nipah and Hendra viruses, Ebolavirus, SARS and MERS coronaviruses.

– Who Am I? –

I’m Vincent Racaniello, Earth’s Virology Professor.

I’m also a professor of virology at Columbia University in New York. I’ve been doing research on viruses since 1976, and teaching virology in classrooms and online since 1999. On this YouTube channel I share videos of my lectures, podcasts, and more.

New videos are uploaded every Thursday and Sunday mornings.

I do not run ads on our work as it is disruptive to learning. We depend on your support.

Just stumbled across these lectures, so now I have to go back and watch the preceding ones. I became a TWiV viewer last year, so this is like, you know, a Christmas present for me. BTW, I'm an old newsie who somehow ended up taking a couple of micro courses 30+ years ago. Lemme tell ya, that has been a godsend these past two years. Thank you so very much. <3

Republishing some segments from previous episodes would actually be a great idea! 😃

Thanks, Vincent. I think I will go back to your first lectures on what virus is. Pays to be educated. Many thanks for these informative lectures

[janetaylor]

Thank you for your excellent teaching. I have enjoyed being edutained by all your channels for 2 years now. It is a reliable source to me for the facts as we know it. When I am presented with mainstream nonsense about our current pandemic I suggest their time would be well spent listening to your channels and sharing more facts backed by data. Eot🤣 I truly thank you again for all your time, effort and commitment as educators. Peace be with you and yours 🙏

Where is everybody? I got here late and it is just a Spitfire sky, nobody, maybe everyone is down in the Omicron bunker. "Would the last antibody leaving, please switch off the lights". I hate, being last, I have to put out the trash. It's dark down here and I am afraid Amy may get me.
