@plosbiology.orgBroadly neutralizing #flu #antibodies able to recognize both influenza A and B viruses are exceptionally rare. This study shows that mutations that promote binding to one flu virus can weaken recognition of others, constraining antibody cross-reactive breadth.

@armholster.bsky.social“Flu deaths among children age 6 months to 17 years hit their highest level in more than a decade during the [2024-25] season totaling 297, before declining in 2025-26”
90% of the children hadn’t been fully vaccinated.

@umbramoonlight.bsky.socialApologies for the radio silence.
This flu has really done a number on me.
I’ve literally been stuck on the sofa for almost a week now.
I think if I didn’t have three lil kitty nurses looking after me, I’d be feeling a lot worse.
It’s a known fact - cats make things better. 💜
