People naturally choose the easiest and simplest transport solution for their daily journeys. For decades we engineered streets to make the car the easy choice. For the climate and health, we now need bikes and walking to be easier than driving. It's as simple as that #BikeIsBest

Do you prescribe LMWH to patients during pregnancy & puerperium? @sheffielduni & Dr Sarah Davis are conducting research on how clinicians would feel about recruiting patients to clinical trials to improve data for these patients at risk for VTE. Survey: scharr.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/…

To Haematologists: If you are using anti-PF4 for VITT confirmation, be aware that many of the standard HIT assays will be negative. The HIT ELISA assays are positive but we do not know if they all perform equally well. This is under investigation.

Were you previously shielding? We’ve updated our advice. You should no longer attend work or school outside the home. This follows a significant rise in infection rates, possibly due to a new strain of coronavirus.
