What Is Dead May Never Die: Microbial Resilience

The microbiology battle of the century! Scientists confidently deploy their 160°C dry heat sterilization protocol expecting total annihilation of microbial threats, but the virus is channeling its inner Greyjoy from Game of Thrones with that iconic "What is dead may never die" energy.

Fun fact: Some extremophile viruses and bacterial spores can actually survive surprisingly harsh conditions! While 160°C for 2 hours would obliterate most microorganisms (proteins denature around 41-50°C), certain thermophiles have evolved specialized proteins and protective mechanisms. The meme brilliantly captures that moment when your sterilization protocol meets its match - the microbial equivalent of finding a cockroach surviving a nuclear blast.
