Could we prevent spillover by planting trees? Our study on Hendra virus in Australia suggests that the answer is "Yes" This study has been a big part of my work over the past 9 years & I'm so proud of the final product. Indebted to Peggy Eby, @rainamontana & all my co-authors
Our new empirical study published in @Nature shows that rapid changes in bat ecology and behavior – driven by habitat loss and climate variability – drove the emergence of Hendra virus, a fatal pathogen in horses and humans. nature.com/articles/s4158… 🧵
“Where people face repression and rights violations every day, activists see a clearer connection... We can’t talk about the climate if we can’t even go out on the street and hold a sign. Climate activism and human rights are united.” blankspot.se/thunberg-in-tb…

3 years later, most media outlets continue to ignore or downplay anthropogenic climate change……
I think of this image every time some journalist complains about climate change protesters disrupting traffic…..
Australia’s COVID inquiry shows why a permanent ‘centre for disease control’ is more urgent than ever - great insights from @JocelyneBasseal @drBenMarais 👇🏻 theconversation.com/australias-cov…
Tragic reports from #Sudan that at least 124 people have been killed in El Gezira State. This latest violence underscores the horrific ongoing humanitarian crisis and the need for urgent civilian protection -- which remains overlooked by the international community and media.
I am shocked and deeply appalled that human rights violations of the kind witnessed in Darfur last year are being repeated in Aj Jazirah State. It is unacceptable and must stop immediately. My statement: bit.ly/3BYTrtr
The situation in northern #Gaza is catastrophic. Intensive military operations unfolding around and within healthcare facilities and a critical shortage of medical supplies, compounded by severely limited access, are depriving people of life saving care. The Health Ministry in…
Since this morning’s reports of a raid of Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern #Gaza, we have lost touch with the personnel there. This development is deeply disturbing given the number of patients being served and people sheltering there. Prior to this, @WHO and partners managed to…
This statement is a week old. There should be wall-to-wall coverage of Israel’s siege in the north of Gaza, not just the desperate pleas of Palestinian journalists covering their own slaughter. Northern Gaza is being erased with the silence and complicity of the Western world.
Israeli Quadcopter planes ask displaced families sheltering in schools in Beit Lahya to leave immediately in a plan to ethnically cleanse the north of Gaza.
She is 100% Correct UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese said that “in Gaza, the collective shame of the century continues unabated and unstopped, in defiance of every norm of international law”.
A few points on recent developments in the Marburg response: - We’ve sequenced the virus genomes from three branches of a single cluster. - Using genomic tools, we found that all sequences share a single zoonotic origin, meaning the virus jumped from animal to human just once.
Many face abuse in their workplaces and universities when they call this what it is and ask for leaders not to support the Israeli regime (incl its representatives) - it is a blatant attempt to eradicate an entire population by hiding behind accusations of anti-Semitism.

Horrifying reports from Al Aqsa hospital in #Gaza, where people sheltering were killed and injured, some of them suffering severe burns. Hospitals should be places of healing and safety. They should be protected. We call again for attacks to stop. We call for peace.…
For gods sake @abcnews! A plan by Israel to besiege Palestinians in the north of Gaza & starve them of food is not ‘controversial.’ It is ILLEGAL. It is a WAR CRIME. It is COLLECTIVE PUNISHMENT. abc.net.au/news/2024-10-1…
Everyone has the right to shelter, clean water, safety, education, and not to be killed for existing. Everyone. No matter who, no matter what ethnicity, religion or nationality.
The image of hospital patients, tethered to IVs as American-supplied Israeli bombs ignite fires around them in Gaza, may well stand as the defining image of this horror.
Today marks 1 year since Australia voted against the Referendum. I remember voting on the day and feeling optimistic and proud of our efforts. I always knew it was going to be a tough campaign and even more difficult to get the result we deserved. It will always be Yes….
I scrolled through the front page of @abcnews and cannot find one headline about Jabaliya, where Israel have set up an extermination camp. Why? Why? Why is our public broadcaster not reporting on this? No wonder I have trouble talking about Gaza to people who aren’t on Twitter.
One year post-referendum, non-Indigenous educators must actively advocate for Indigenous education rights, fostering inclusive practices and driving systemic change to uphold fundamental human rights and cultural respect, says Professor Peter Anderson. news.griffith.edu.au/2024/10/14/one…
