virus
up this guy's nose.

virus.
This individual has parainfluenza-1, and you can see that there's a little stripe over here for Sendai virus: that's mouse parainfluenza.
We made a chip that has every known
virus
ever discovered on it.
Every plant virus, every insect virus, every marine
virus.
So, we clone the whole
virus.
First of all, I'll tell you that a little automated prediction told us it was very similar to a mouse
virus.
They all have the same virus, but they're different enough that there's reason to believe that they've been independently acquired.

virus.
Does this
virus
cause prostate cancer?
We have a strong association between the presence of this
virus
and a genetic mutation that's been linked to cancer.
They are spreading from neighbor to neighbor like a
virus.
HPV causes contact infections, which means the
virus
stays in the cells near the point of infection rather than spreading throughout the whole body.
We can test for HPV in cells from these areas, but while testing for the
virus
is scientifically possible, it isn’t common.
The main reason is that, while there are treatments for the adverse health effects caused by HPV, there’s no treatment for the
virus
itself.

For a
virus
adapted to another mammal, infecting a human might just take a few lucky mutations.
And a
virus
adapted to chimpanzees, one of our closest genetic relatives, might barely require any changes at all.
However, once a host jump reaches the transmission stage, the
virus
becomes much more dangerous.
