I have been listening to your course since 2016. I was a mere medical student. Now graduated and working, and I still love your course. Thank you professor for putting so much out there. Because you chose to upload your course online I was able to listen from Turkey. ❤
Thank you Professor, I attended your course in 2021 and have learned so much about virology as a result, the subject gets more interesting the more I understand about viruses.
I listened to your first Virology lecture a couple of years ago and understood pretty much zero. I'll listen again to this to see if anything has changed haha! Thanks for making this publically available.
Nice to see some familiar faces in the same boat as me, second time through as well. I'm looking up porcelain filters and learning about Chamberland filters
@@johnellmakerI'm encouraged that I did in fact remember somethings from the first time. The wowed points!!! And now, instead of being intimidated by the vastness of the info provided, I'm now fascinated to know more!!! Blessings
Thanks Dr. for your classes. Even an average Joe can listen & learn something. And I want to thank you for your chats with Dr. Offit. as well. UA-cam is wonderful.
Hi from Brazil. I discovered your course today. I am doing my PhD in health sciences and foucusing in viroly, specifically I am doing my research in mosquitoes virome. Your course will definitely be helpful!
Thank you Professor! I took the first 12 of your lectures in 2022, before my brain fried😊 I'm trying again, you're a brilliant human for giving your time freely, even for non-science people like me.❤
Thank you for the 2024 course. Love science and took the 2023 course last year and after going through this first class, I have great recall of my first class in 2023. By the way I am wowed by phages. They are amazing.Lis
Love your course, it was my first introduction to viruses back in 2020. I was wondering if you could write a paper or do a TWIV tracing the pandemic from start to finish using your 2020 lectures?
Sir certainly I'll WOW you if you make your channels an one-stop site for all virus related subjects, a would-be great achievement benefiting humanity. Thank you for your tireless efforts to educate the poblic👍
This is always fun to watch the latest version of the course! I vaguely recall a stat that something like 30% of cancers are caused at least in part by viruses. Not sure if that is also 30% of cancer deaths, but surely it's a significant number if not 30%. Edit: I went into an AI 'search engine' and it gave some interesting figures but says 10-16% of cancers are attributable to infections. I understand it not having a red arrow on the 'Causes of death' slide as seen in the above lecture because it is a small portion of the total, though.
@MicrobeTV Hi Vincent. I really enjoy these lectures - I watch them every year & each time I pick up something I hadn't noticed before.......for example, the image showing large blooms of algae (approx 30 minutes in) is off the coast of Cornwall, UK The spread is roughly from Falmouth up to Plymouth and stretching across towards the Channel Islands & Brittany/Normandy in northern France. I noticed you said this was somewhere in Europe but you weren't sure exactly where - in next year's lectures you can confidently tell your growing audience exactly where this algal bloom was. Looking forward to the rest of the series. Please keep up your excellent work
@willNewcomb yes! Wouldn't that be great. If a writer understands all of it, it helps them be better informed; if they understand none of it, it helps them be more humble? 🧠🐁📑🌅
@@eageraltoI'm a non medic and I understood far more of this first lecture than I did the first lecture a couple of years ago. I think he's 'dumbed down' it a bit for us mortals! The subsequent lectures (2 & 3) are way beyond my pay grade haha!
You not only love your work but you also show care and comfort to all your patients, I want to thank you for the extra time you took to ensure my infection is completely gone. Your medication worked successfully, Thank you, @DrAzziza .........

Thank you for giving us more reasons to listen to prof. Racaniello courses.
Thank you Professor, I attended your course in 2021 and have learned so much about virology as a result, the subject gets more interesting the more I understand about viruses.
Yesterday I finished 2023 virology course. Now I am in 2024 course. I m glad. Hello from Kazakhstan!
Thank you, Vincent!

Listening to TWIV every week has definitely helped my comprehension!
Same here@WillNewcomb. The first class in 2024 is so much easier for me this time since I have done Office Hours and the 2023 Virology course.
Glad you’re doing this again in 2024! Let’s go!!!
I like your course. Never stop learning.
Thanks Dr. for your classes. Even an average Joe can listen & learn something. And I want to thank you for your chats with Dr. Offit. as well. UA-cam is wonderful.
I watched some of the 2023 lessons and I loved them, and I'll definitely be following the 2024 lessons.
Thank you for sharing this freely and believing in free education. I really appreciate it!loved this first lecture and looking forward to more

This is tremendous.

Welcome Back 2024!
Thank you very much.
Enjoy Your Day!
Be Safe & Stay Encouraged!
I followed this in 2021 and I think I'll do it again!
Your book on virology is marvellous and extremely didactic
Very exciting, thank you for sharing!
Virus and One pieces truly my personal and professional lives are coming together
Super interesting, wish I would have had such fantastic instruction at University of California, may have stayed a biology major
Just a high school student who interested so much in virology and wanna learn much .
Glad to find these lectures
Thank you for the 2024 course. Love science and took the 2023 course last year and after going through this first class, I have great recall of my first class in 2023. By the way I am wowed by phages. They are amazing.Lis
Thank you, Professor!
Thank you for sharing this course! And thank you for TWIV--these help to educate us all!
Love your course, it was my first introduction to viruses back in 2020.
I was wondering if you could write a paper or do a TWIV tracing the pandemic from start to finish using your 2020 lectures?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Looking forward to all of the 2024 lectures.

Oh how I wish this lecture was in finnish 🇫🇮..
..but loving this still, even though its a little hard as english is not my native

Which is actually good news, because creating a vaccine against a virus is easier than treating cancer
I am already a monthly subscriber.
Thanks Vincent
Super engaging.
in the middle age people asked about how many angels can dance on the head of a pin....I think it's something deeply rooted in our culture 😂
Thank you for everything and I can get a bdf lectuers or ppw
The intro music is getting better every year.

I told Vincent in one of his live "Office Hours" chats after the first week of the course. He might remember...
@@peteglass3496 I expect he wrote it on a sticky note ......and then promptly lost it 🤣
may I have a link of principle of virology, fifth edition... thank you
the number of viruses on a pin relates to the medieval discussion of how many angels can stand on a pin.
The examples at minute 23:00 are the only known beneficial relations between host & virus? Do you have any examples for humans?
This first lecture should be compulsory listening for every journalist writing about current health issues.
@willNewcomb yes! Wouldn't that be great. If a writer understands all of it, it helps them be better informed; if they understand none of it, it helps them be more humble? 🧠🐁📑🌅

how many genomes does one hiv positive person carry?
Thank you for such an amazing course! Is there a link to immunology course you were talking about? thank you)
Just search for "Brianne Barker" perhaps add immunology. It looks like there is a fresh set of 2023 lectures.
Can we do lectures like this and talk every time about different viruses
❤ vincent
What’s your job? “I’m a whale breath catcher”
😅😂
Thanks!

43:30 The fomite theory of spread was shown to be insignificant It was the aerosol, dammit.
I hope I don’t have HSV2… that would be a bit scary
You not only love your work but you also show care and comfort to all your patients, I want to thank you for the extra time you took to ensure my infection is completely gone. Your medication worked successfully, Thank you, @DrAzziza .........
