Wisdom Wednesday – Hantavirus Projections (Don’t Worry About It, Worry About What Comes Next)

1/n: I could be wrong, of course, but my take about this hantavirus outbreak is less about the actual outbreak and more about what it means in the context of the last two decades and moving forward. Let me explain… — Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD DSc(hon) (@PeterHotez) May 12, 2026  

Secular Sunday – Happy Easter! (A Few Varied Posts On The Topic)
