Can cordyceps infect vertebrates?

Posted: 25 Jul 2020 03:21 AM PDT

As far as i know cordyceps infect only insects. If cordyceps can't infect vertebrates, what can keep it from infecting?

If the immune response of Covid can cause pneumonia and ultimately death, why are immunosuppressed patients considered more vulnerable?

Posted: 24 Jul 2020 06:57 PM PDT

I've read multiple sources that describe how the body's immune response ultimately is what leads to death in Covid 19 patients so is there a scenario in which an immunosuppressed patient would fair better than others?

Why is covid-19 affecting miniority groups the most other than non-Hispanic whites in the USA and Australia?

Posted: 25 Jul 2020 03:00 AM PDT

I've realised that across the countries mentioned and many other white countries, miniorities seem to attract the coronavirus more, but why? Is it because majority white areas follow restrictions and social distancing more? Are whites staying home more?

Why is the rate of positive COVID-19 tests numbered so differently depending on the day of the week?

Posted: 24 Jul 2020 02:27 PM PDT

By this, I mean why do certain days have a much higher or lower positive test count than other days? In my home state for example, there were 760 positive cases yesterday. In the days before that, there were a mere 6-7 positive cases daily. The week before that, there were thousands. The graph is a very steep zig-zagged line, varying high/low every other day. Why is this?

I'm in Minnesota USA for context.

If someone contracted the SARS virus, will that person be immune or better at fighting COVID-19 than people who did not contract it before?

Does the lymphocytopenia associated with SARS-COV, MERS-COV and SARS-COV-2 have a common cause?

Do Antipsychotics Cause Brain Damage?

Posted: 24 Jul 2020 08:48 AM PDT

Hi everyone,

I've read studies, from a few years ago, suggesting antipsychotics cause brain damage. Does anyone have any insight into this?

How do the metal detectors at airports work?

Posted: 24 Jul 2020 11:12 AM PDT

It's not like they're using magnets to attract everything metal and it works even if the metal is under layers of other materials so how does it work? It seems strange and foreign to me but maybe I'm just missing the obvious.

What is the Roche Limit?

Posted: 23 Jul 2020 09:46 PM PDT

I heard about it and tried googling it but I still don't completely understand the concept.

Basically, Roche Limit is the closest a satellite can get to a mass's gravitational field before breaking up and becoming a "ring" of the mass..? That's all I understood from Wikipedia, but I still don't understand tidal forces, which is referred to in the article, and the entirety of Roche Limits
