Donald Trump used the power of his position to target private companies.
Bank of America found that the stock market tended to fall on days when Trump tweeted more than 35 times, and rise when he tweeted less than 5
This bizarre half-tweet was meme-ified at lightning speed and became obnoxious just as quickly, inspiring merchandise, a race horse name and a ban on "COVFEFE" licence plates in the state of Georgia
To some, this video of Trump beating CNN in a wrestling match was a joke; to others, it was a threat to journalists.
Extremists took notice. They drew attention to their communities by injecting their ideas into the Twitter feeds of Trump's 89m followers
Trump's response to questions about his mental stability have gone down in history as the epitome of protesting too much. His phrasing inspired a book, a parody song to the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan's 'Modern Major General', and even a proposed law
In July 2018, Trump targeted Iran. Such a naked threat of nuclear force sent a chill round the world.
He tweeted last January that his tweets would suffice to legally notify Congress of a war
During the first peak of America's pandemic, Trump endorsed anti-lockdown protests in three Democrat-led states, which triggered online radicalisation that culminated in this week's violence on Capitol Hill

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.
...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.
Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
