0:00.0	This week in virology, the podcast about viruses, the kind that make you sick.
0:10.3	From micro TV, this is TWIV, this week in virology episode,
0:16.3	1,05 recorded on May 5, 2023. I'm Vincent Racken-Yellow. You're listening to the podcast,
0:25.3	all about viruses joining me today from Ann Arbor, Michigan, Kathy Spindler.
0:32.2	Hi everybody, luckily my phone just refreshed because it still was saying it was 38 degrees
0:36.9	Fahrenheit, but it's 69 degrees Fahrenheit now and mostly sunny. And if I go to your rain or
0:47.7	wigeon weather app, that will tell me it's 20 degrees Celsius. Here it is 17C and mostly cloudy,
0:57.6	also joining us from Madison, New Jersey, Brienne Barker. Hi, great to be here. Today it is 61
1:05.9	Fahrenheit here and I know from Kathy, that means it's 16 Celsius. And it is mostly cloudy here
1:13.6	as well. And from Western Massachusetts, Alan Dove, good to be here. It's 58 Fahrenheit, 14C,
1:21.7	mostly cloudy. And we appear to be coming to the end of this week of rain that we've had

1:59.2	So he doesn't want commas and you shouldn't say 1,000 and one. You should say a thousand one.
2:06.9	How about that? So at one point do we go to 10.05 or like episode 10.30?
2:16.0	11 probably. Yeah, probably. I think I think the 2000s went to that when we got to like
2:22.8	the 2010. 2010. Yeah. Because we're doing 2001 because you did 21 sounds weird because you don't
2:29.7	know what you're doing. 2001 or yeah. But I tended to say 2001, not 2000 and well, you were right then.
2:37.2	Okay. Yeah, I was taught not to not put the end in either. Well, you should have corrected me.
2:41.9	I've been saying it for years or not for years, I guess. 995. Now only because of the thousand,
