According to this paper, 8+ hours is adequate: "severe inadequate ...4.7 to 4.1 hours per night... moderate inadequate... (6.0 to 5.5 hours per night... , mild inadequate... 7.2 to 6.8 hours per night... and adequate... 8.4 to 8.0 hours per night."

We are tracking mutations of #RSV in #wastewater: genspectrum.org/swiss-wastew.... Why this matters and why you should re-tweet for visibility (a 🧵).

The highest incidence rates of upper #Respiratory diseases is in children under 2 years old, again from The Lancet. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

As #Respiratory #Disease peaks in #Switzerland, a few notes. More than 12.8 billion upper respiratory infections are estimated globally every year, that's >1 per person per year! See www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

#Wastewater in #Switzerland showing high levels of circulating #RSV, #InfluenzaA, and #InfluenzaB. A lot going around at the moment. See our dashboard at wise.ethz.ch, or the FOPH Infectious Disease Dashboard for integrated surveillance at idd.bag.admin.ch

Postdoctoral scholar Dr. Kendra Dahmer discusses how the new administration's policies could affect her global health research apnews.com/article/trum...

"New infections in children were associated with preceding household detection of the same pathogen in soil (Odds ratio: 8.8, 95% confidence interval: 3.3, 23) and on child hands (Odds ratio: 5.0, 95% confidence interval 1.1, 17)."

📯 #Swiss wastewater dashboard through our #wise project is now updated with historic data within which you can overlay the seasons. #Influenza B is now high, after skipping a year. Check it out here: wise.ethz.ch

#Wastewater-based monitoring for #PublicHealth holds a lot of promise, but an outstanding challenge is to understand what public health relevant metrics can be derived, and how we translate data into impact. See our Viewpoint on #AMR #AntimicrobialResistance in #EST 👇

If you're measuring #Legionella in a water system using qPCR, how do you relate your value to culture? We suggest a conservative 1:1 assumption! Unless you know more about your system, this seems accurate based on a systematic review. Led by Emile Sylvestre: journals.plos.org/water/articl...

From the #Swiss #Wastewater, signs of #SARS-CoV-2 receding, while both #influenza A and B continue an upward rise. #RSV looks to be staying stable, could be evidence that it has peaked. From: wise.ethz.ch

Everything is everywhere all at once: #Influenza A, Influenza B, and #RSV are all increasing in #Zurich wastewater, while #SARS-CoV-2 still circulates. From wise.ethz.ch.

Sadly, it’s a good time to once again share this amazing infographic that we ran at @science.org more than 7 years ago 🧪 #IDsky www.science.org/content/arti...

we've been working on multiplex #dPCR assays the last few years, and here are a few things we've figured out along the way. Lead by Jolinda de Korne-Elenbaas: academic.oup.com/lambio/advan...

Clear signs in wastewater that RSV season is picking up as we enter end of year holidays. In past years, RSV has picked up before Influenza A and B. From: wise.ethz.ch.
