When #AIDS first hit the UK in the 1980s, it was gay and bi men who carried the heaviest burden of infection, illness and death. However more resource was put into targeting the general population than those who were most likely to have it - and who most needed information.
Madhu’s speech at the International AIDS Conference just shook global health at the core. Three excerpts here. 1) Global health structures are racist; and this is not a bug, it is a feature.
Kadınlara hakaretlerini,tehditlerini,katliamlarını çekinmeden yapıp cezasız kalanların cesaretiyle bugün size bunlar yapılabiliyor @esenol Bilimsellikten uzak,çağdışılığın hüküm sürme gayretlerine hukuk yanıt vermeli ve eylemi yapanların dilleri susmalı @bybekirbozdag

Please do not post pictures of people speculating about whether or not they have monkeypox. It’s not “minimizing” to recognize and denounce the harm in stigmatizing people on social media.
Thank you 🙏🏼 Activism FOR and BY clinicians is so important Please retweet this to show @CDCgov @ECDC_EU and @WHO that they should move faster to change case definitions and help clinicians recognise #monkeypox #AIDS2022

Activists take the stage at #AIDS2022 in protest at inequity in funding and social injustice
Encourage everyone who is eligible for the #monkeypox vaccine to get jabbed 💉 ...But little info is being shared on effectiveness, and the time it takes to be protected. As more MPX research is funded we'll learn more. Thanks to @SimonCollins101 @HIViBase for this info ⤵️
just read the comments on this story i wrote and wheewwwwww. absolutely wild to be accused, as a gay reporter, of being anti-gay for reporting on *practical* health advice for a virus that is currently affecting MSM in 98% of known cases, including half a dozen of my own friends

Of the 2 new #Marburg cases in Ghana, 1 has already died. That's a a 75% fatality rate so far for this outbreak.
In theory, anyone can get MPX, but the risk is not the same for every person/ exposure. The narrative that MPX can affect everyone equally diverts attention away from addressing unmet needs. It’s a good PH practice to focus resources where it’s needed the most. (n/25)
The message that anyone can get #monkeypox isn't incorrect, but it is misleading. Fomites like bedsheets don’t carry the same risk as sexual or other close skin-to-skin contact. And unclear messaging is causing unnecessary panic. My latest for @Slate. 1/ bit.ly/3PUtmgB
.@peterstaley says what I've been trying to say. We shouldn't be censoring our messages about who is getting #monkeypox & how in an effort to avoid giving ammunition to bigots. And it won't work anyway -- homophobes will always find a reason to hate LGBT people.

@sailorrooscout Agree that it’s not the time for stigma & discrimination. But we also need to give accurate info. Monkeypox has multiple modes of transmission & sexual route appears to be an efficient one. Ppl need to know how it’s transmitted, so they can make informed decisions for prevention.

This preprint may start unraveling the mysteries behind "mystery" pediatric hepatitis...and it's not SARS-CoV-2. It's not as simple as just "here's the virus that causes it." In this study, it appears to be linked to 2 viruses plus a specific host gene variant (HLA).

If your concern about #monkeypox is that it may spread *beyond* gay and bisexual men, maybe you should ask yourself why you think it’s fine if gay and bi men have Monkeypox?
@jessdkant Great thread Jess! Folks concerned about more widespread transmission- have a peep at this thread too. x.com/mugecevik/stat…

At the same time, I'm very excited to be starting a Wellcome Early Career Award at @bdi_oxford with the @ChristoPhraser group in October. I'll be developing methods to use (semi-) quantitative assay data for infectious disease surveillance and modelling. wellcome.org/grant-funding/…
Utterly catastrophic😔 "Research has documented the profound effect school closures had on low-income students and on Black and Hispanic students, in part because their schools were more likely to continue remote learning for longer periods of time." nytimes.com/2022/09/01/us/…
To anyone with a basic understanding of immunology, it’s neither conventional or wise to assume that related viruses don’t induce any cross-protective immunity.
Conventional wisdom is that previous infection with omicron subvariant BA.1 or BA.2 does notprotect against BA.5, but data from Portugal show considerable protection against BA.5 infection from previous BA.1 or BA.2 infection. nej.md/3pVDLxz
I believe many academics insulting others with whom they disagree feel they are doing the right thing in advancing truth as a means of improving health. Throughout it all, the public has watched. And bit by bit, trust in academia has decreased. There will be costs of that too.
The principal investigators behind the RECOVERY trial (for #covid19 treatments) have now started a trial testing tecovirimat (tpoxx) for the treatment of #monkeypox. First patient was enrolled on Friday. "This is the first ever trial in patients with monkeypox", says @PeterHorby.
Next time I say 'hard to reach groups' I will remember this
reactive research: pubmed search results for monkeypox publications. Reflects: 1. lack of interest and funding in preparedness research 2. explosion of " opinions" once an outbreak starts. These dynamics need to change.
Superb interview @DewsnapClaire #MonkeypoxVirus #Vaccine Inequities of healthcare especially when some countries haven’t been able to give pre exposure vaccine 🥺 @BASHH_UK @BritishHIVAssoc @APPG_HIV_AIDS @JohnMcSorley10 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/li…
It's sobering that, globally, we are not able to produce enough supply of smallpox vaccine at pace to meet the demand for monkeypox control. Many countries with hundreds (or thousands!) of cases have not even started vaccinating yet, let alone launched a vaccination strategy.
@apsmunro What also holds for both is just how *counterintuitive* they are - so from the pov of someone who's never been trained in either, things that are completely uncontroversial seem outlandish and even risible.
Cases are based on testing behaviour, so this study appears to be using a numerator with unknown denominator as its main outcome measure. It also doesn't appear to consider a role for prior immunity.
It's almost Back to School time & we're still seeing about 100k cases a day here in the US. How do we stop COVID from going back to school too? Our new pre-print confirms face masks must be part of our plan! Let me explain /🧵 medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…
Great post on one of the most astonishing examples of confirmation bias that I've seen in the wild. Everyone runs the risk of this, and I'm sure all of us have succumbed on several occasions, but this one was just spectacularly glaring.
The desire to smash “retweet” 🔁 when you see something that confirms your preconceptions is almost irresistible - even if you haven’t actually read it How did some of the biggest SoMe platforms in science make a mistake so huge? alasdairmunro.substack.com/p/how-junk-sci…
Find a way to be your authentic self at work - don’t feel you have to hide who you are and what you value. Trust me, life will be easier if you can be comfortable at work and show up as you 5/X
Can we please please please approach the monkeypox crisis with an open mind instead of using it to relitigate grievances from more than 2 years of a different pandemic. We need to let the data that scientists and doctors are gathering on THIS outbreak inform our response.
Two facts today: 1. The UK remains one of the world’s richest countries 2. Some of my lung patients are considering limiting oxygen or ventilator use this winter because they won’t be able to afford the energy bills. This crisis is not inevitable. It is a political choice.
Straightsplaining is a thing. Working on #monkeypox some non-queer people are “speaking out” on behalf of gay and bi men. Some of it well-meaning and well-informed, some of it incorrect and patronising. We need allies and partners - not a straight filter for our experiences.
About half of the most followed COVID "expert" twitter accounts showing that they don't take a single glance at the studies they share. Sad comment (anonymised; generously IMO): "Professor [redacted] has RT-ed the study, and that's good enough for me." It *should* be, yes.
There’s still much to learn about #monkeypox. It’s ok to acknowledge gaps in our understanding. Don’t believe everything you read, some wilfully spread misinformation. I trust and recommend: @mugecevik @LizHighleyman @kallmemeg @profchloeorkin @Greg0wen @DrWillN and @aidsmap.
Lessons from #HIV for #Monkeypox. Inform. Equip. Empower. 1. Inform Ensure people know how monkeypox is / isn’t passed on, what symptoms to look out for, how risk may be reduced or eliminated. Ensure communities most likely to acquire are prioritised. Let those communities lead.
