  The body's internal clock affects the immune system in ways scientists in the burgeoning field of circadian immunology are beginning to unwind. Why it matters:  Leveraging the circadian clock's effects on the immune system could help to improve the effectiveness of some treatments for a range of diseases and conditions, a new book and scientific review suggest. How it works:  The body's central clock, or suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), is a collection of about 20,000 neurons in the brain that receives signals from the eye when it detects light or other environmental cues from the body.

More than 100,000 people die each year from typhoid fever Antibiotic-resistant typhoid strains mostly from South Asia have spread across borders almost 200 times in the past 3 decades, accord to new study.

  As COVID19 death rate globally has fallen, it may be tempting to conclude that coronavirus is becoming milder. But this not a given. A good example of the opposite is a pathogen that has been ravaging rabbits in Australia for 72 years: the myxoma virus

As the Eurasian H5N1 bird flu spread in the US this spring, prompting mass culls of domestic birds, scientists also detected the virus in red fox kits, bobcats, skunks; & otters, a lynx & a badger in Europe.
