10 years after the horrific West African Ebola epidemic, we have life-saving treatments Yet they remain under the control of just two US pharma corporations And they're almost exclusively kept in a US stockpile for national security purposes From @MSF 👇doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/msf-cal…

10 years on from the horrific West African #Ebola outbreak, WHO has issued updated guidance on how to run Ebola & #Marburg outbreak responses. You read that right. It's been a decade. Quite the decade. iris.who.int/bitstream/hand…

There is a crisis in clinical academia in the UK. We talk of the need to expand medical schools, embed research into the NHS to improve care, & the importance of a vibrant life sciences sector for the economy of the UK, & yet we seem unable to tackle the underlying issues 1/9

Fully agree. Not helpful. Whilst we urgently need new tools for CCHF, lockdown won’t be one of them. Risk to UK very low, very different to situation in Turkiye, Iraq and Afghanistan.

First CCHF patient dosed today in the UMIT-1 trial in Turkiye! An amazing team at the Dr Abdurrahmem Yurtaslan phase 1 centre and great support from MoH, WHO and MEDEX. A lot of work to get to this point - but CCHF patients haven’t got time to wait ! 👍 GuardRx/TPI for funding.

South Korea avoided a national lockdown at the height of the pandemic. It is one of just a handful of countries which can be said to have had a “good pandemic”. This is how. Analysis by @niccijsmith. Article is free to read 🧵 telegraph.co.uk/global-health/…

There's a lot of confusion about what a Covid endemic phase means. I think this short essay by @ArisKatzourakis @Nature is the best description I've seen nature.com/articles/d4158… "a disease can be endemic and both widespread and deadly"

Thank you WT/UK HSA for a great WHO CCHF R&D meeting. Vital that Turkish experts were able to join remotely after such an awful week too. Ambitious timelines for therapeutics/diagnostics set recognising that CCHF patients don’t have time to wait … @WHO @FINDdx @wellcometrust
