All in a single letter! Inoculation and inosculation refer to different things. Inoculation is a medical term, referring to the introduction of a vaccine etc. Inosculation is when 2 trees rub and fuse together. It may be the clue for grafting. From Latin root to kiss

Is It Possible to Spread Smallpox with Blankets?

"In Indian Country, it is an accepted fact that white settlers distributed items, such as blankets contaminated with smallpox and other infectious diseases, aiming to reduce the population of Native people resisting their Manifest Destiny. These accounts have left a legacy of trauma and distrust in Native communities that persist to this day. It comes as quite a surprise to Indigenous people to learn that a controversy exists regarding the veracity of these events."

#Fatal #Infection in #Ferrets after
#Ocular #Inoculation with Highly Pathogenic Avian #Influenza A(#H5N1), Emerg Infect Dis.: wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30/7

Ocular inoculation of a clade 2.3.4.4b highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) virus caused severe and fatal infection in ferrets. Virus was transmitted to ferrets in direct contact. The results highlight the potential capacity of these viruses to cause human disease after either respiratory or ocular exposure.

〝Although we find that the Bad News game reduces susceptibility to misinformation from political ingroup sources, we also find clear ingroup/outgroup source effects. This suggests that interventions might benefit from incorporating training in the impact of contextual cues that may mislead news consumers, in addition to content-based clues.〞
