I got the swine flu back in 2009 and it almost killed me. I was coughing so much from all the fluid in my lungs I ended up coughing blood for a bit. At first the ER thought I had Tuberculosis with the blood coming up and quarantined me and took X-Rays of my chest and took samples of blood and mucus. It came back swine flu and since I wasn’t to the point of needing hospitalization yet they sent me home and ordered me to see my GP as soon as possible. I was seen the next day and my doctor gave me some shots and some prescriptions and told me to come back in a week. I did so and I was feeling better and blood tests showed I had developed a strong immunity to the virus. I gave consent for a massive blood draw so they could send it to the CDC to be studied.
Glad you survived. So many people don't know that we can indeed get diseases from animas and vice versa (not saying you don't, just that may humans don't understand that point) and sometimes when humans get a zoonosis, it can be worse in us than in animals.

My father taught college biology and in the 1970's he explained a bit about China and viruses that infect humans. He said viruses grow and mutate in basically 3 different hosts; pigs, poultry, and people. What are some of the world's biggest populations of pigs, poultry and people? China.

We’re glad that Lyme disease is getting more national attention (we’ve been talking about it for a while now!), and that actual progress is being made in terms of diagnosing and treating the condition. It remains to be seen how effective this new process is in practice, but we’re cautiously optimistic.
As a scientist developing new vaccines and therapeutics for influenza (specifically 2009) and measles I'm frustrated that we are not addressing one of the root causes of these pandemics that is animal agriculture or other forms of animal abuse. I showed this video to my fellow scientists at work as we always discussed the issues surrounding animal agriculture. Thank you very much for addressing this issue.
Thank you for pointing this out. It's like we are trying to engineer a virus to take us out, but as long as it's in the name of making money it's cool.
@@cheesypies ferrets are of the animals affected by influenza the most similar to humans in regards to lung physiology, cell reseptor distribution and clinical symptoms. The ferrets model has helped us a lot in understanding how seasonal influenza transmissibilty via respiratory droplets happen, and how avian flu spreads between humans, because the effects are very similar in ferrets. They also help us find out which strains are most likely to cause an epidemic or pandemic each year. I just think it's pretty cool that these cute domestic weasels are so similar to us and help prevent thousands of deaths each year :)
Although I don't think animal testing generally is very ethical, so I'm glad were mostly using cell models and others things now, but transmissibilty via respiratory droplets can't really be replicated in a petri dish, so I'm grateful to our ferret friends. At least they're being used for something more important than most test animals, majority of which are used for testing cosmetics and other non-essentially items.

@@myscreen2urs yeah exactly this isn't a flu, flus are much more complex viruses that been around for years but keep mutating from factory farming this is a very basic virus, why we don't call it "bat virus" or "pangolin virus" is because last time we did that "swine flu" people got confused and started killing pigs in brutal ways which actually could make another flu mutate again, like if everyone starts killing bats that are in nature we will definitely see more viruses because these things happen when animals are under high stress before we use to name flus and viruses after places also but then people would start being racist to that population lol so now we name things the name of the virus + the year it came along so yeah there are actually very good reasons for the naming scheme that is being used
@@neonlost I guess that makes sense. We are becoming increasingly more and more politically correct. Which is a good thing in this case. It hasn't stopped some people spouting prejudice towards the Chinese, the bats and the Chinese bats. Chinese bats get it the worse.
It's just crazy how the survival of certain species depends on us making speckticals out of them. But thank you for sharing this information. I had no idea that we could spread infections to animals.

Most plague-level diseases are the result of Zoonosis. Most disease vectors evolve to multiply in a way that is sustainable so as not to kill off their host, but if it evolved in a cow (like smallpox did), what it does to make a cow a little sick utterly destroys a human. Viruses & bacteria have a hard time jumping species, but major cities for most of history were basically the perfect environment for those rare species-jumps to occur & for the plague to spread, die down & flare up repeatedly as people and working animals lived in close proximity and high density.
We ourselves are animals, I know a lot of Western societies tend to either overlook that fact or purposely dismiss it because of a superiority complex.
@@cwillis92 you're right. I definitely do forget that we are animals too. It's pretty easy to forget because most times when we refer to them or us, it's usually things said that makes us believe that we are totally different than animals. Thank you for reminding me and others that we are indeed animals as well.
Us making spectacles of them and putting them in zoos does not continue their survival. It simply makes us feel better about our utter destruction of their habitats and lets us pat ourselves on the back for giving them a "secure environment"
Weird hearing about the swine flu again. I remember my school closed for a week. It was a strange experience for my 10 year old self. I thought it was the plague 2.0
And it's become known that tick bites not only transmit Lyme disease, they can also make a person allergic to the meat, milk, and other mammal-produced materials. (But the victims often recover after a period of time, and can eat burgers again.)
I think SciShow, is the perfect place for this post. Your video starts with a Nord VPN app and it's skipped, because... I bought Nord VPN from the ads... at the same time you should still get credit from me skipping it. Ads from purchased products shouldn't show up anymore. How this would be accomplished, I don't know but you should get the revenue from the ads even if, we the buyers skip past them in the video.
Yes, people think I am crazy when I mentioned this. It seems we are being fed information. Sometimes suggestions totally unrelated to our interests or searches 🤔🤷🏾♂️🧐
A real eye opener! This "reverse zoonoses"should be discussed about more seriously now and be given priority as a topic in the media side by side with climate change and more so as an agenda for governments workdwide to focus on since this involves humans and other species that are currently getting affected. Who knows maybe it might not be an asteroid or nuclear disaster that will wipe out the entire human species but this rarely discussed "reverse zoonoses"that will kill us all. Even in the remote corners as discussed are getting affected because of tourism and researchers , unknowingly and unintentionally leaving human trails of viruses /bacterias to the detriment of the environment.
The yellow fever leaped from monkeys to humans in Africa, was brought to the New World by the Atlantic slave trade and has recently jumped from humans to New World monkeys, in a transcontinental zoonotic-reverse zoonotic case
About 2 months ago I had a bad postnasal drip and my cat had the sneezes at the same time. Not sure who infected who. Was a weird respiratory disease, not as bad a cold or flu, gone within 5 days.
Wait I thought that the human waste was carried out when people left Antarctica? That whatever poop people do is transported with them when they go back. Is this not true or is there a potential leak in the waste storage system?
@@DemitriVladMaximov There are regulations requiring removal of waste, but I'm not sure when they were enacted, & explorers & scientist were down there long before they were. Certain that no regulations exist to cover ships registered in places like Panama, Bahamas, & China, etc.
@@courtneywoodbury5198 Because when most people heard about chlamydia, their first thought is not about the bacteria, but about this specific STD. That's including me, and my first response basically 'What the hell'. And someone above had help me explained that chlamydia infection on koala isn't exactly spread by human on koala, but by koala contracting bacteria from sheep's manure. It never really involves human as pathogen host, one way or another. This video is strictly about human pathogen infecting animal.
2:27 I know things get a little tense when vaccines are brought up, but I have a genuine question and I think we are among friends here. Do vaccines need to species specific? From my lay understanding of vaccines I would have thought they would be the same. How does the rabies vaccine given to dogs differ from the one given to humans? How would the metapneumovirus vaccine for gorillas differ from the human one?
I’m assuming it’s different based on how the animals immune system works and because the goal is to train the immune system to fight off diseases. Also pretty sure human rabies vaccines are mostly after post exposure and animal ones are pre exposure.
@@nicholaslewis8594 Yes, but what does that entail? If vaccines work by exposing the immune system to an inactive or attenuated or fragments of a pathogen or toxoid, what part of that would need tailoring to the species? Of course different species get vaccinated for different pathogens or strains of pathogens, my question concerns cases where it is the same pathogen like the case given here. No, I just got a rabies shot earlier this year before traveling.
There are different types of vaccines which work in different ways, and which one is used and whether one can be created at all depends on the disease and how it affects the body. There are actually no metapneumovirus vaccines yet, just ones that are in development (and I believe have been proven to be effective), but to develop a vaccine for gorillas would probably require a lot of testing on the effects it had on their bodies and how they fight it off, and obviously they'd probably need to tailor the dose. It would probably be easier than developing a new vaccine from scratch, but still pretty difficult and expensive.
Skuas and giant petrols are fairly common off the coast of New Zealand. They definitely come very close to populated areas, sometimes just a few hundred meters from land and people.
The "swine flu" almost killed me. It, directly and indirectly, caused so much damage to my body that it took over two years to mostly fully recover. I never did fully recover to my previous self. The typical flu virus only makes me slightly sick for maybe 2-4 days tops. The swine flu was something my body just couldn't handle apparently. I was sick for three weeks. Couldn't eat. Couldn't walk (too weak). Ran a rather high fever the entire time.
I recall a program that discussed the effect of polio on a troop of baboons. All the alpha males died, and the nice guys took over the troop. The nice guys taught new males their nice guy ways and it was nice.
AYYY LMAO THE THUMBNAIL is me as a kid! My uncle is a photographer and he took that picture of me when I was at my grandmothers house, and he caught me LEGITIMATELY mid sneeze. he’s been proud of it forever lmao.
I had swine flu when I was 13. I was very sick. I didnt go to school for nearly a month. I started going back once I no longer had a fever but boy I still felt like death. I didnt eat for that near month, the first food I DID eat was burger kind.
My question, too. Ice breakers make smaller ice floes and of course, as you've surmised, more sea (darker areas) equals less reflection, easier to melt and .. but as you say, is it a meaningful change in the area of reflection? Glad someone is asking the same questions.
I figure there are odd factors ranging from ‘increased water adjacent surface area of the ice, in water that is above the melting point’, to say possibly ‘less stationary water, aka water better conducts heat to the ice’, but I’m just brainstorming. Or it may all be rather negligible compared to anything else. I wonder how much ice breaking actually goes on every year?
As far as I know, not really. Ice breaker should only there to open lane for commerce and other ships in permafrost, didn't they? The fact that they are needed _every year_ should be your cue that it shouldn't be mattered; the ice formed back. Now, if somehow we _didn't need_ ice breaker anymore....
Rusdani: my understandings: permafrost is frozen soil aka land; and the poles HUGELY gain and subtract ice mass each year as ice grows outward from what’s left as (idk exactly when) fall/winter refreeze starts. The loss of ice complained about in global warming is the 1) loss year over year of the min/average/max amounts of ice thawed/refrozen, and 2) the loss of previously non-thawing for xx,xxx years massive parts of glaciers and such that won’t be refreezing at all. Edit: to clarify: many factors contribute to that ‘more loss than gain’ yearly thaw/freeze cycle, I was just pondering whether ice breakers pose any significant factor in those cycles.
The idea of a vaccines for gorillas led me to the question, what to they think of being tranquilized and waking up hours later with missing memory.... which then got me to the alien abduction stories..... what if alien abductions are a part of alien conservation efforts of humans?

Watching this in 2020 or after gives a whole new meaning to wearing masks to protect primates.
Stay safe and stay healthy.
I love how his shirt matches the background 😂
*Wears green shirt*
Colorful Pigeon hmmm maybe more of a cyan??
@@thesierra8936 he meant what if the guy is wearing a neon green shirt that got green screened
Blacktain Falcon ah I see... well I’m an idiot :-) I’m face palming about myself 😂🙈🤦🏻♀️
I’ve heard of bovine tuberculosis, in cattle and deer. But I’d never heard of it in other animals.
Chris Frank sadly, lions and buffalo are suffering from it too 😢 it’s a huge problem in Southern Africa (especially Kruger National Park) 😬
”And in some places, make people wear masks”
Yeah, good luck with that
i allways love sci show videos. clicked so fast
Mini player is off for content made for kids tap play to resume
Triple reassortment. That must have what happened to my cousin when he got bit by a vampire, a werewolf, and a zombie at the same time.
Damn, even Antarctica... Feels bad man
Ah, reverse zoonotics. When the sheep are afraid, you should be too.
I can't tell if his t-shirt is green like the green screen, or if it's really that color.
Why is this the thing my brain focused on?
I just realised why did he wear decide to wear it today?
He matches
I think SciShow, is the perfect place for this post. Your video starts with a Nord VPN app and it's skipped, because... I bought Nord VPN from the ads... at the same time you should still get credit from me skipping it. Ads from purchased products shouldn't show up anymore. How this would be accomplished, I don't know but you should get the revenue from the ads even if, we the buyers skip past them in the video.
2:20 good luck with that
The UA-cam algorithm really wanted me to watch this video. Thanks coronavirus
Yes, people think I am crazy when I mentioned this. It seems we are being fed information. Sometimes suggestions totally unrelated to our interests or searches 🤔🤷🏾♂️🧐
A real eye opener! This "reverse zoonoses"should be discussed about more seriously now and be given priority as a topic in the media side by side with climate change and more so as an agenda for governments workdwide to focus on since this involves humans and other species that are currently getting affected. Who knows maybe it might not be an asteroid or nuclear disaster that will wipe out the entire human species but this rarely discussed "reverse zoonoses"that will kill us all. Even in the remote corners as discussed are getting affected because of tourism and researchers , unknowingly and unintentionally leaving human trails of viruses /bacterias to the detriment of the environment.
The yellow fever leaped from monkeys to humans in Africa, was brought to the New World by the Atlantic slave trade and has recently jumped from humans to New World monkeys, in a transcontinental zoonotic-reverse zoonotic case
2:20 imagine when that was a weird concept.
So nobody's gonna talk about the ball chin monkeys 9:34 that probably inspired Peter Griffin's character? Okay then.
About 2 months ago I had a bad postnasal drip and my cat had the sneezes at the same time. Not sure who infected who. Was a weird respiratory disease, not as bad a cold or flu, gone within 5 days.
You probally had the cronoavirus lol lame ass virus. The media is a virus too.
I wonder if that's how the Spanish Flu got so bad, we started it and animals kicked it up a few notches before it made it back to us.
Pre-covid science videos are often quite wacky
I was just thinking about this the other day after coughing in my dog's face.
Watching this in 2022 hits different 😆
Specially the facemask and gorillas part 😆
What's up with the pig tampon at 3:47? :o
For the last one, cargo ships dumping wastewater tanks and carrying water from region to region as ballast would pretty much explain it.
Wait I thought that the human waste was carried out when people left Antarctica? That whatever poop people do is transported with them when they go back. Is this not true or is there a potential leak in the waste storage system?
Doubt that all those trawlers fishing in the Great Southern Ocean take their human-waste home with them!
@@MrWombatty fair point. But I am talking about those on Antarctica. As I thought the international rules about cleanliness there were rigorous.
@@DemitriVladMaximov There are regulations requiring removal of waste, but I'm not sure when they were enacted, & explorers & scientist were down there long before they were. Certain that no regulations exist to cover ships registered in places like Panama, Bahamas, & China, etc.
No mention of the John Oliver Koala Chlamydia Ward?
Chlamydia was intentionally spread to koalas?
@@courtneywoodbury5198 This line of thought is so wrong on so many levels. And I laugh at it.
@@rusdanibudiwicaksono1879 What line of thought? What are you even talking about? Chlamydia is a very real problem among the koala population.
@@courtneywoodbury5198 Because when most people heard about chlamydia, their first thought is not about the bacteria, but about this specific STD. That's including me, and my first response basically 'What the hell'.
And someone above had help me explained that chlamydia infection on koala isn't exactly spread by human on koala, but by koala contracting bacteria from sheep's manure. It never really involves human as pathogen host, one way or another.
This video is strictly about human pathogen infecting animal.
@@rusdanibudiwicaksono1879 Well gee, that's all you needed to say. There was no need to be abrasive.
oh how the turned have tables.
I came here for this comment. 😂😂
Bats to humans: covid-19
Humans to bats: uno reverse
Hank is a terrific presenter!
TB can also spread between humans, cows, deer, goats, cats, pigs, dogs and badgers.
This is so damn interesting.
We gave leprosy to armadillos which is ironic because they now give it to us through zoonosis
2:27 I know things get a little tense when vaccines are brought up, but I have a genuine question and I think we are among friends here.
Do vaccines need to species specific? From my lay understanding of vaccines I would have thought they would be the same. How does the rabies vaccine given to dogs differ from the one given to humans? How would the metapneumovirus vaccine for gorillas differ from the human one?
I’m assuming it’s different based on how the animals immune system works and because the goal is to train the immune system to fight off diseases. Also pretty sure human rabies vaccines are mostly after post exposure and animal ones are pre exposure.
@@nicholaslewis8594 Yes, but what does that entail? If vaccines work by exposing the immune system to an inactive or attenuated or fragments of a pathogen or toxoid, what part of that would need tailoring to the species?
Of course different species get vaccinated for different pathogens or strains of pathogens, my question concerns cases where it is the same pathogen like the case given here.
No, I just got a rabies shot earlier this year before traveling.
There are different types of vaccines which work in different ways, and which one is used and whether one can be created at all depends on the disease and how it affects the body. There are actually no metapneumovirus vaccines yet, just ones that are in development (and I believe have been proven to be effective), but to develop a vaccine for gorillas would probably require a lot of testing on the effects it had on their bodies and how they fight it off, and obviously they'd probably need to tailor the dose. It would probably be easier than developing a new vaccine from scratch, but still pretty difficult and expensive.
@@jasper3706 Yes I'm just curious to what those differences would be. Is it just a matter of dosage?
Skuas and giant petrols are fairly common off the coast of New Zealand. They definitely come very close to populated areas, sometimes just a few hundred meters from land and people.
The "swine flu" almost killed me. It, directly and indirectly, caused so much damage to my body that it took over two years to mostly fully recover. I never did fully recover to my previous self. The typical flu virus only makes me slightly sick for maybe 2-4 days tops. The swine flu was something my body just couldn't handle apparently. I was sick for three weeks. Couldn't eat. Couldn't walk (too weak). Ran a rather high fever the entire time.
I recall a program that discussed the effect of polio on a troop of baboons. All the alpha males died, and the nice guys took over the troop. The nice guys taught new males their nice guy ways and it was nice.
Swine Flu: *I'm a global pandemic that killed 5000 people*
SARS-CoV-2: *Amateur*
AYYY LMAO THE THUMBNAIL is me as a kid! My uncle is a photographer and he took that picture of me when I was at my grandmothers house, and he caught me LEGITIMATELY mid sneeze. he’s been proud of it forever lmao.
sure Sure
Romulus Hill why would I even bother making that up lmao, im just excited
@@isabellechambers5225 because your a lesbian
Romulus Hill but... I’m not? im bisexual lmao. also that has nothing to do with anything.
I had swine flu when I was 13. I was very sick. I didnt go to school for nearly a month. I started going back once I no longer had a fever but boy I still felt like death. I didnt eat for that near month, the first food I DID eat was burger kind.
Do “ice breaker” style ships meaningfully contribute to decreasing ice at the poles?
Then ice being broken is already "loosened". The fact that it can be broken is evidence of poles melting.
My question, too. Ice breakers make smaller ice floes and of course, as you've surmised, more sea (darker areas) equals less reflection, easier to melt and .. but as you say, is it a meaningful change in the area of reflection? Glad someone is asking the same questions.
I figure there are odd factors ranging from ‘increased water adjacent surface area of the ice, in water that is above the melting point’, to say possibly ‘less stationary water, aka water better conducts heat to the ice’, but I’m just brainstorming. Or it may all be rather negligible compared to anything else. I wonder how much ice breaking actually goes on every year?
As far as I know, not really. Ice breaker should only there to open lane for commerce and other ships in permafrost, didn't they? The fact that they are needed _every year_ should be your cue that it shouldn't be mattered; the ice formed back.
Now, if somehow we _didn't need_ ice breaker anymore....
Rusdani: my understandings: permafrost is frozen soil aka land; and the poles HUGELY gain and subtract ice mass each year as ice grows outward from what’s left as (idk exactly when) fall/winter refreeze starts. The loss of ice complained about in global warming is the 1) loss year over year of the min/average/max amounts of ice thawed/refrozen, and 2) the loss of previously non-thawing for xx,xxx years massive parts of glaciers and such that won’t be refreezing at all.
Edit: to clarify: many factors contribute to that ‘more loss than gain’ yearly thaw/freeze cycle, I was just pondering whether ice breakers pose any significant factor in those cycles.
Hank you rock, I just keep watching show after show, I think I'm addicted? It's ok I love your show. Keep up the awesome programing. Thanks!
Dw, mother Earth pulled a uno reverse card on us 2020
That was a great segue to the Nord sponsorship!

Animal: i'm gonna make you sick
Human: NO U
animal: no u
The idea of a vaccines for gorillas led me to the question, what to they think of being tranquilized and waking up hours later with missing memory.... which then got me to the alien abduction stories..... what if alien abductions are a part of alien conservation efforts of humans?
I think you have Covid20
Shhhh they'll hear you.
I suddenly have a strange desire to find a wild pangolin and sneeze on it...
Ok. I can’t stop staring at at hanks blue shirt. It blends with the background making him look like his heads cut off...
I gave my guinea pig a uri when i had one.. it wasnt pretty.. we both got treated.. but he died from old age a month later
I remember when I used to think the Swine Flu was a bad pandemic.
I'd imagine that we could need HASMAT suits to enter wildlife areas in the future
oh no, MASKS!
Oh 2019. We were so innocent.
"wear masks"
That rings a bell.
you forgot to cite armadillos and leprosy.
That thumbnail artwork is SICK!!!😎
