So happy this is finally out! @SciReports @CVRinfo

 Whilst investigating how #Wolbachia blocks #arboviruses we found evidence that strains use different mechanisms!

 Understanding variations allows us to future proof release programmes.

🌍 #ClimateChange could have a significant impact on #mosquitoes & mosquito-borne #viruses 🕷️ Climate instability increases extreme flooding events, providing ideal breeding conditions for mosquitoes, leading to high mosquito densities. #COP26 #CVRCOP26 More info & evidence👇

UK does contribute a significant proportion of the world’s sequencing capacity (~25% sequenced #SARSCoV2 genomes in @GISAID), BUT this does not impact on the proportion of cases that have the #DeltaVariant in the country. – at Glasgow, Scotland

Would *really* like to see this fact checked (the delta variant line, not the % of world's genomic sequencing)
