Great to see the (successful) efforts of microbiologists to generate a vaccination programme to protect Koalas from Chlaymdial disease that threatens wild populations. Great talk and work by Sam Phillips. @AUSSOCMIC #2023asm. @Sam_Phillips_83

Around half of the wild koalas in Queensland have chlamydia, and scientists are trying to vaccinate. Great story by @larsonchristina apnews.com/article/koala-chl…

Koalas are dying from chlamydia. A new vaccine effort is trying to save them

Australian scientists have begun vaccinating wild koalas against chlamydia in an ambitious field trial in New South Wales.
