EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Swine flu pandemic, conceptual image" showcases the intricate and deadly nature of the H1N1 influenza virus. In this striking computer artwork, we see our planet Earth nestled between two vibrant orange H1N1 flu virus particles, symbolizing the global impact of this infectious disease. The image beautifully captures the movement and essence of both wild animals and livestock that can serve as hosts for this strain. The spikes on the surface protein of these virions represent their contagious nature, while also highlighting their pathogenic potential. The green globe signifies how no corner of our world is immune to such epidemics. Through its artistry, this print emphasizes the significance of biology and medicine in understanding and combating viral infections like swine flu. It reminds us that fatal pandemics can emerge from unexpected sources, urging us to remain vigilant against future outbreaks. With its focus on proteins, antigens, neuraminidase, haemagglutinin, lipid envelope, and RNA structure - all integral components in virology - this image serves as a reminder of how crucial scientific research is in developing effective vaccines and treatments. Overall, Science Photo Library's thought-provoking artwork encapsulates not only the devastating consequences but also highlights humanity's ongoing battle against infectious diseases like swine flu.
