Feds to spend millions to contain bird flu outbreak amid testing lag
Federal officials are scrambling to track the virus. But they’ve struggled to gain access to farms to collect data.

The federal government will spend millions to stem the spread of avian influenza in the nation’s dairy herds to keep the virus from mutating and spreading among humans, officials said Friday.

The investment comes after the federal government drew fire from public health experts for not testing enough cattle or workers exposed to infected herds, which they worry endangers the ability of the U.S. to rapidly respond if the virus mutates. Under the new plan, the government will compensate impacted farmers for costs associated with the virus and juice efforts to track and trace the virus.

Si3n4 has shown it can kill SS-RNA viruses which Bird Flu is. Still be nice to hear about some testing to confirm this!

The CDC has published guidelines for people working closely with infected animals and this week urged states to facilitate the distribution of protective gear like aprons, gloves and goggles. Still, public health experts and farmworker advocates fear that workers, who are likely the first line of defense to prevent the spread of the virus among humans, are not adequately protected.

Heres an opportunity for Sintx as Si3n4 can be integrated into aprons & gloves.

Surgical Gowns, Drapes, and Curtains
From surgical drapes to gowns to antimicrobial bedsheets to medical tools, we are working with our partners to revolutionize their product lines with FleX-SN AP. This will help minimize the chance for healthcare-associated infections, which account for hundreds of thousands of deaths each year in the U.S. alone28.

This is a market that Sintx can tap that Implex Hydrocel couldnt touch showing Sintx IP is worth more than $232m Zimmer paid for Implex.

Total acquisition costs of Implex was $108m upfront + $124.1 (96m+28.1) in cash earn-out payments from 2004-2006 for a grand total of $232.1m.

Silicon Nitride, a Close to Ideal Ceramic Material for Medical Application

examples of their medical applications that relate to spinal, orthopedic and dental implants, bone grafts and scaffolds, platforms for intelligent synthetic neural circuits, antibacterial and antiviral particles and coatings, optical biosensors, and nano-photonic waveguides for sophisticated medical diagnostic devices are all covered in the research reviewed herein. The examples provided convincingly show that silicon nitride is destined to become a leader to replace titanium and other entrenched biomaterials in many fields of medicine.

Silicon Nitride = Next Gen Hip Implant Material

Silicon nitride, silicon carbide and diamond-like carbon as non-oxide ceramics are considered to be the new generation of materials used in hip prosthetics, particularly in the manufacture of acetabular cups, due to their excellent biocompatibility, osteointegration, and tribological and mechanical properties, but all three materials need more study. However, silicon nitride is the nearest to commercialization, through businesses such as Amedica Corp. and SyntX Technologies

Im guessing the authors meant Sintx Technologies. Amedica being the companies former name before the name was sold to CTL.
