How close are we to answering these questions?
fire and gamma rays
What virus is the most dangerous? Are there any necessary virus?
viruses are the coolest goddamn things, they only exist to fuck life over when they themselves are not even alive, and spread themselves by fucking up and hijacking cells with to produce more viruses which is metal as fuck

I'm doing a PhD in synthetic biology and I make artificial viruses.
What is the ultimate goal of humanity?
prequisite is the reduction of poverty and scientific education of an considerable % of the population.
Some viruses are practically eradicated in the western world
What is the nature of the viruses we create?
It's nature's way of population control. We humans are already over populated. Nature is trying to fix that by sending more and more viruses.
What could be humanities ultimate undoing?
the profit motive
they are non infectious VLPs used for vaccines and other biotech applications.
How does nature send viruses?
What is profit?
Could you give me a quick rundown?
I remember reading this article about the discovery of a special kind of immune system that all lifeforms with mucus membranes possess.
the mucus membranes are constantly sloughing off cells that are infected with a variety of viruses that infect bacteria, the infected bacteria explode, die, the viruses infect the mucus cells and the cycle repeats
frankly eliminating all viruses is not only probably impossible, but if you could wave a magic wand and accomplish it, you might just unleash a wave of bacterial infections that devastate the population
Hepatitis B core antigen, Human papillomavirus L1 protein. They self-assemble into viral particles when produced as single proteins, so therefore don't have any of the viral DNA and are non infectious but still illicit an immune response. You can also fill them with fluorescence dyes etc. to use them as contrast agents in imaging. There's a few other applications as well like using them as little mini nano reactors for chemical reactions to occur in whilst protecting them from outside conditions
Is it just me or are you getting a feeling that bacteriophage looks like some nanotechnology ?
Yes.
For flu virus - If everyone went into complete isolation and never went closer than say 10m to any other person for 30 days then virus will stop in its tracks.
For AIDS virus, extend to human lifetime. AIDS dies out with the last carrier.
Works
females ---> get fucked
males ---> fuck
that one was easy
I don't want to get the virus
What if they watch me through the phone
What if they're going to start killing infected
Virii are very important.
The Russians, and to a lesser extent the French, didn't go into antibiotics in a big way. Instead they put a lot of work into bacteriophages, viruses that ate bacteria.
They were able to discover and use many of them and avoided the trap of antibiotics losing their potency.
But after the breakup of the USSR there was no money for maintenance and a lot of their stockpile was lost. The US and European drug companies suppressed the news and kept the 'phages off the front page. Now we are dependant on maybe four or five effective antibiotics that are losing their effectiveness.
Alter genetic structure to make it
reproduce retardedly so it has
no way of adapting to new
stimuli
It does look like that under
microscope
No but only alter their genome
Thread theme?

Sounds kind of like the slime on fish. Heard that acts as a barrier for them against waterborne bacteria and the sort.
No, these are models that help scientists understand how they work.
Viruses are incredibly tiny. Much smaller, mostly, than bacteria.
They are not complete creatures. They need to use another creature's body and life processes to reproduce.
How can we make a difference? What difference can we make?
the standart model does explain mass, higg bosson did it
worst outcome of eradicating ALL viruses is that bacteria run unchecked. Especially the bad ones.
Best outcome of eradicating viruses? Could we not first eliminate the bacteria?
eliminating all bacteria results in massive nutricional deficiencies (there are necessary bacteria living in our guts), horrible soil nutritional value for plants, and extremely slow decomposing of dead organic material.
eliminating bacteria could be literally the death of everything we know if it went wrong
Could we not selectively eliminate bacteria?
Could we just make new bacteria?
Ill stop cleaning my dishes just like he who discovered antibiotics did :D
Could you give me a quick rundown?
Could we replace bacteria?
Viruses are an inevitable product of chemistry.
sure
when we speak, we use our anatomy to produce vibrations that propagate using the air, those vibrations travel that air filled space and get to a sensory organ, the ear
so that means that sound exists only because there's air for it to propagate, but let's say that, instead of air filled space, we consider it a field, and the interactions that allow sound to exist and propagate, we call them phonic interactions, and we define a mediation particle for it, the phonon
so now, sound is just a matter of interactions in a phonic field mediated by phonons
mass is exactly like that, the air filled space is the higgs field, and the phonons are the higgs bossons, all mass is just interactions in the higgs field mediated by higgs bossons
sup bros, trip fag here
You are just over explaining the basic functions how how we communicate without any reason why...
>There are around 600 billion virus particles in every gallon of seawater.
>This is completely normal, as these virus particles are species specific and most of them will not affect humans.
We are not going to be able to eradicate them. They are here to stay.
so higgs mechanism can be understood simply
I can give you the math and the CERN finding tho, if you want
sure do :)

The paper of the discovery (so we do have empirical evidence of higgs bossons)
The problem is worse than that. Virtually every complex organism's DNA has the remnants of retrovirus DNA stitched into it. The human genome is like ~8% virus DNA that is simply inactive. In theory, a mutation in a human's DNA could reactivate one of those remnant retro viruses. And even if we could, removing that dormant DNA wouldn't be an option as experimental attempts to completely suppress those sections in stem cells resulted in cells that could not properly differentiate into all cell types.

Viruses are the extraterrestrial attackers!
Eliminating all viral life would result in one thing.
The destruction of the middle east.
they're all viral.
Word salad
You have no idea... which is understandable because no one even knows if the higgs field is correct let alone how it works.
Its just another crappy layer on the giant fudgecake of the standard model

Compliment with the information provided before, this article predates higgs discovery but does show higgs field theory and standart model from scratch to nowadays use
