An assessment of Covid's impact on cognitive function in 740 individuals finds "a relatively high frequency of cognitive impairment several months after patients contracted COVID-19"https://t.co/l0gcvCbm9j @JAMANetworkOpen pic.twitter.com/kmoNo291Xo

After almost 2 years of Covid, the overwhelming fixation on hospitalizations and deaths as the only important outcomes for getting infected is untenable.
Deliberately ignoring #LongCovid and its functional impairment will not make it go away.

“We need a new way of thinking about international cooperation. Financing pandemic prevention is fundamentally not about aid to other nations but collective investments in global public goods that benefit all nations, rich and poor” #commongoods https://t.co/SglF5ayXLK

To make rapid tests as useful as possible

-make them Accessible
-make them Free for ppl
-Offer employers & schools ez options for getting *Verified* results w HOME-tests
-Make Verified home-tests reportable to public health (eMed is a great example that enables the last two)

Interested for results!

#Retirement
I would like to thank everyone who has made kind comments to me on Twitter re my announcement of retirement in March 2022.
Still 6 months to go-through what may be a difficult winter-so I will be 'on it' until then!
(Along with our brilliant #publichealth team!)

Professor, you may feel the medical profession is unfairly targeted much of the time. It could be worse, you could have been a lawyer!

Thanks @WvSchaik & @BallouxFrancois - so at this stage, the shots being delivered are overwhelmingly mRNA vaccines (under 30s)(?)

Twitter: I am organizing an event I want your recommendations for people discussing #AntimicrobialResistance #AMR on how the research agenda and priority pathogens have been driven by the global north? leaving several blind spots & neglected resistances #DecolonizingGlobalHealth

Putting the responsibility entirely on the vulnerable is ableism. Don’t do it.

What’s more complicated, healthcare or air travel?

$UHG’s Dirk McMahon, who worked in airlines at one time, says healthcare. But at least you don’t have to deal with the weather. #HLTH2021

You would dispute with Temmam et al? Granted theirs is just an example but the principle is good. SARS2 is a recombinant of viruses closely related to those found near abouts (500K) from the mine. You disagree with what exactly?

At places I’ve trained—UChicago & Harvard, which are v well resourced—more than adequate stipends & benefits were guaranteed at point of entry & were only then further supplemented. There can sometimes be disavowed investments in exaggerating precarity these social contexts.

'a lil’ higher'---more like knock it out of the park higher 😉 You don't need to be modest abt your own vaccine.
