Introduction to Virology and Viral Classification

There are two main types of pathogens we will be focusing on in this series. The first was bacteria, and we just wrapped up a good amount of information on those. The next is viruses. These little things are much tinier than bacteria, and they are so simple in structure that we technically don't even consider them to be living organisms. But they still can cause big problems for living organisms through viral infection, whether the host is a bacterium or an animal, including a person. Let's take a look at all kinds of different viruses over the next handful of tutorials!

Hello, Dave...any update on the " debunking " of the electric universe theory? I was just curious because I asked you about that before and you said that you were working on it. Personally, I've seen a lot of intriguing information coming from that field, but you're a lot smarter than I am...so, I would assume if it's bullsh*t, you'll be able to figure it out? Thanks, for your time. By the way, the SAFIRE project that I mentioned to you before claims to have discovered new elements. So, I'm sure you'll enjoy looking into it.

[@ProfessorDaveExplains]

I am animating it as we speak! I'll put it out soon. And "new elements'? Um, no.

[@grahamnalepa4622]

@@ProfessorDaveExplains Yes, elements that they can't identify. I'm being serious. It's on the 2019 video review of the SAFIRE project on the ThunderboltsProject KZbin channel.

[@grahamnalepa4622]

@@ProfessorDaveExplains I'll rewatch it and timestamp it for you. Unless, I'm mistaken? Either way, I need someone smarter than me(that would be you) to help me understand if it's bullsh*t or not? Again, thank you for your time.

wow, they really think their viewers don't know what elements are? i had no idea they were that ridiculous. i kept it very general, but if this first debunk gets a ton of action then i will make another one based on the feedback i get
