In 1918, an influenza pandemic that originated with avian flu killed 50 million people. Researchers isolated samples of that vir

us from bodies of infected people preserved in Alaskan permafrost since 1918. From the samples, they sequenced the viral genome, then reconstructed the virus. The reconstructed virus is 39,000 times more infectious than modern influenza strains, and 100 percent lethal in mice. Understanding how this virus works can help us defend ourselves against other strains that may arise. For example, discovering what makes it so infectious and deadly would help us design more effective vaccines. Critics of the research are concerned: If the virus escapes the containment facilities (even though it has not done so yet), it might cause another pandemic. Worse, the published DNA sequence and methods to make the virus could be used for criminal purposes. Do you think this research makes us more or less safe?

Answer:

Personally, I believe the information helps.

Explanation:

Without this information the virus would not be contained, we would not have done research, taken samples, tested out the virus, or even attempted to contain it. With this information we can attempt to prevent a break out of the disease again. This is my personal opinion though.

People with diseases that result in the malabsorption of which nutrient are at risk for a vitamin d deficiency?
grigory [225]

Inadequate dietary vitamin D or its deficiency leads to malabsorption of calcium. Nutritional disorder leads to the rare disease rickets, which causes bones to become soft and bend in children. In adults, vitamin D deficiency leads to osteomalacia, which causes weak bones, bone pain and muscle weakness.

The body needs vitamin D to properly absorb calcium and phosphorus from the diet. However, keeping the right quantities of calcium and phosphorus in bones is challenging when vitamin D levels are low.

The two sources of vitamin D are-

  • Natural sunlight
  • Foods such as fish oil, Egg yolk and fatty fishes like salmon and mackerel

There are other disease conditions which lead to poor absorption of vitamin D-

  • Inflammatory bowel disease
  • Celiac diseases
  • Kidney problems
