Extractions: Dr Jamie Love This page provides an introduction to flu virus and it is best to read it before reading my other webpage about Chicken Flue and Swine Flu , where you will find information about the epidemic(s). The media have discovered what many scientists have known all along - viruses are amazing and scary. Unfortunately, the media are more concerned with scaring you than educating you, so you're wise to have found this page. (Here we'll do both! Mankind has always been under the threat of a new, more dangerous virus emerging and causing massive epidemics. Our modern transportation systems make it all the easier for such a virus to spread quickly throughout the world. Man's constant exploration and encroachment in previously inaccessible parts of the world make it more likely that something nasty might emerge. However, it is worth noting that viruses have always been with us, evolving ways to reproduce and spread. Viruses, like humans, are just playing the evolution game.

Extractions: www.mcld.co.uk/hiv This hypertext looks at HIV from a molecular point of view, using an indexed set of entries. Start from one of the starting points given just below, or alternatively look in the index This website does not contain medical advice. It will help you understand how HIV works and what it's made of - have a look in the index if you're looking for a particular topic. I wanted to know what was going on at the molecular level in HIV - what was it that made HIV so damned difficult to stop, and what might we possibly do about it? But there wasn't any good source of information on the web - I had to scour many textbooks, journal articles, and websites to find out the information I wanted. I'm now presenting this information as a hypertextbook so that you can browse around and hopefully learn exactly what you want to about HIV from a biochemical point of view. All the pages are created "on the fly", ensuring that every entry is cross-linked to every possible entry. It does mean that there are literally thousands of paths through the text, so make sure you

Therefore the database was out of commission for the holiday weekend. We are sorry if you couldn't access the database; if you had started a process that did not complete, please restart. We are up and running now. 07 September 2010

Extractions: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Viral life cycle Viral replication is the term used by virologists to describe the formation of biological viruses during the infection process in the target host cells. Viruses must first get into the cell before viral replication can occur. From the perspective of the virus, the purpose of viral replication is to allow production and survival of its kind. By generating abundant copies of its genome and packaging these copies into viruses, the virus is able to continue infecting new hosts. Replication between viruses is greatly varied and depends on the type of genes involved. Main article: Baltimore Classification System Viruses are classed into 7 types of genes, each of which have their own families of viruses, which in turn have differing replication strategies themselves. David Baltimore , a Nobel Prize -winning biologist, devised a system called the

Contact The Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease Chronic Viruses Cause Most Major Diseases According to Dr. Hanan Polansky's discovery, most cases of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, obesity, and many other chronic diseases are caused by an infection with a common latent or chronic virus. Some of these viruses are the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex virus (HSV), Varicella Zoster virus (VZV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), Human Papillomavirus (HPV), and others. These viruses are genetic parasites. During their latent phase, they microcompete with the human genes, and in high concentrations, starve them, which forces the human genes to behave as if they have been mutated, that is, to malfunction. This discovery, first presented by Dr. Hanan Polansky in his "

Inside the red-brick buildings framing the leafy quadrangle students listened to lectures on Ellison and Emerson, on Paul Verlaine and the Holy Roman Empire. Few suspected that strains of the organism that causes cholera were growing nearby, in the Life Sciences Building. If they had known, they would probably not have grasped the implications. But these particular strains of cholera make Paul Ewald smile; they are strong evidence that he is on the right track. Knowing the rules of evolutionary biology, he believes, can change the course of infectious disease. Discuss this article in
