Such an important topic. Still can't believe the recommendations in France are to give children formula milk until the age of 3 yo (included)
The 2023 Lancet Series on Breastfeeding will show how commercial formula milk industry exploits parents, health professionals & politicians with a marketing playbook that undermines the health & rights of children & mothers. Join the launch on February 8 who.int/news-room/events/det…

NOW is the time for heightened awareness to be on the lookout for cases of acute flaccid myelitis in patients presenting with weakness: reports of widespread enterovirus D68 circulation across the US + Europe, and polio recently detected in NY and UK.

Recently I've heard from collaborators in the US & Europe that #Enterovirus #D68 #EVD68 cases are on the rise.
EV-D68 is what I worked on pre-pandemic, & hope to go back to.
A significant autumn 2022 wave has been a recent concern.
So what is D68 & what might this mean?

Some thoughts from a co-organiser's perspective on hybrid conferences in the aftermath of #ProbGen22. I think hybrid conferences should be the default in the future, for all sorts of reasons, so lets try to make them work as well as possible. (1/7)
