In the last few days, I built a citation maps plugin for #Zotero to track how papers connect and cite each other. Thus, it can also suggest papers you might have missed and reveal the root of an idea. (Free and open source) Check it out and share! Feedback welcome 🙏 github.com/schulzedanie...

Screenshot of the free, open source Citation Map Plugin for Zotero. Demonstrated is the timeline view, in addition to the citation chain feature that supports understanding in what order papers cited each other.

Demonstrated is the map view, showing a network of papers (presented as dots of different sizes - the bigger the dot, the more citations the paper has) that cite each other. In the background of the map are orange dots, suggesting papers that are not in the current collection.

The UK has announced a case of avian flu virus #H5N1 detected in a sheep (on a farm with infected birds). I think some of the significance of this (and the wider picture) is being missed in a lot of the reporting. So a short thread... 🧪 #IDsky www.gov.uk/government/n...

Influenza of avian origin confirmed in a sheep in Yorkshire

Influenza of avian origin (H5N1) has been confirmed in a single sheep in Yorkshire.

Huge thanks to my sister for helping put these together.

It's happening now:
I know it's totally overwhelming but here are just a handful of things happening in US Science & public health RIGHT NOW. I need you to know, so you can realise how you are being defrauded from a healthy, disease free future, with thriving science. I need you to know, so you can tell others.

If an #H5N1 pandemic starts tomorrow or in three months, there will be little mystery as to how it happened. The conditions are all there. They have been for a while. So in some ways the more interesting question to me at the moment is: Why aren’t we in a pandemic yet? Story here, 🧵 to come: 🧪#IDSky

science.org

Why hasn’t the bird flu pandemic started?

Some scientists examining mutations found in H5N1 viruses fear major outbreak is imminent but others says pathogen remains unpredictable
