Microbial Pursuit #1 🦠
I solved today’s #MicrobialPursuit puzzle! ✅
First Clue: I am a facultative intracellular bacteria that replicates within human monocytes and macrophages....

Opening for faculty position--Asst Director of Clinical Microbiology & Molecular Infectious Diseases @BarnesJewish. Fast-paced, dynamic, state-of-the art facility (with molecular diagnostics, lab automation, MALDI-TOF MS) @BurnhamBugDoc ow.ly/mJKX50CyfLL

This fall/winter, most patients with a flu-like illness will need to be tested for both #Influenza & #COVID19

We’ll need rapid assays that can test for both viruses

#Vaccination for flu will be more important than ever, to reduce the overall incidence of flu-like disease

How does the detection of viruses correlate in the BioFire RP2 compared to the Pneumonia Panel? Find out in the recent publication in @JClinMicro: bit.ly/2B688eH @ASMicrobiology @DMWebberMDPhD @wusm_pathology

In case you need a good laugh... courtesy of my husband, who obviously needs more to do...

ASM urges @US_FDA to apply stronger oversight and evaluation of the serology tests coming to market in the midst of #COVID19 . Read our letter here: skyw.io/bzmTyH

I think some clinical microbiologists might appreciate this right now. Hang in there, friends!!!

55YF presented to ED with fever, AMS and right ankle pain/inability to bear weight in setting of chronic immunosuppression for a DDKT performed in May. Ankle aspirated in ED. Growth at 48 hours; Gram stain from the culture.

Optimal Timing of Repeat Multiplex Molecular Testing for Respiratory Viruses

Results less likely to change during initial 11-14 days after testing.

Thanks to Drs Weinstein, McMullen, Mitchell, McElvania, McAdam, Talati and Walsh, sponsors and symposium chairs Drs Evangelista, Glaser and Pettengill for a great and successful meeting today. @ASMicrobiology #BloodstreamInfections

An important reminder from the Natural History Museum of Utah in Salt Lake City.

It's World Antibiotics Awareness Week.

The rise of #AntibioticResistance is threatening our ability to treat common infectious diseases, resulting in prolonged illness, disability & death bit.ly/33WZI2x

The future of #antibiotics depends on all of us.

Excited to discuss antimicrobial resistance for the next two days!!!

It’s a great honor to hear about the history of our field from one of the experts in clinical micro. Thank you Bob Jerris.
