"Infected Trees"

A Eupterote mollifera caterpillar, commonly known as the Moringa hairy caterpillar, is seen covered in a white fungal growth after being infected by Isaria fungi on a Moringa tree (Moringa oleifera) trunk in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on October 29, 2024. Isaria, a genus of fungi primarily in the family Clavicipitaceae (or Cordycipitaceae, according to some classifications), infects insects by penetrating their cuticle with enzymes. Once inside, the fungus proliferates in the insect's haemocoel, spreading mycelia through the haemolymph and tissues. This fungal invasion eventually drains the insect's nutrients, destroys its tissues, and releases toxins, leading to the insect's death.

A man is carefully collecting date palm juice from a plastic container on the outskirts of Sylhet city, Bangladesh, on a winter morning, December 29, 2023. Doctors and the Health Department are advising people to be very careful about drinking raw date juice. The Institute of Epidemiology, Disease Control and Research (IEDCR) has reported that people are dying from the Nipah virus after consuming raw date juice. In Bangladesh, the Nipah virus is primarily spread by bats, and the risk of contracting this virus is high from December to April. The virus can be transmitted through bat saliva or feces in the sap when bats hang on palm trees to collect sap. Many people, including children, have been infected by eating fruits partially eaten by bats. Consuming the juice raw has led to infections. The IEDCR director has stated that 71 percent of people infected with the Nipah virus die. This year, 2023, 10 people have already died from the Nipah virus. Consequently, on December 14, 2023, the Department of Health issued a warning to avoid consuming raw date juice to prevent the spread of the Nipah virus. Currently, children and teenagers are more affected.
