Scientists have identified more than 600 viruses in samples taken from bathroom in the United States. In fact, toothbrushes and showerheads are teeming with never-before-seen viruses. Before freaking out, the discovery isn’t a cause for concern. In fact, there may even be a benefit. @LiveScience explains: https://flip.it/NgNFGp

The viruses are in the water supply, including Covid.

I love the hubris on display. These fuckers think they know everything. First they say XRN1 isn't traditionally involved in immune defense and then in the last paragraph they mention that viruses certainly seem to think otherwise.

I think the real story here is the genetic wars.
Evolution moves very quickly, faster than many would think.
