To celebrate 100 years of insulin- one of my favourite venomous creature facts. The cone snail releases venom containing fast acting insulin into the water to catch its prey. It’s amazing. Take a look! bit.ly/32eV5lt

I congratulate the government and people of #Kenya on the elimination of human African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness.
Kenya joins the growing rank of countries freeing their populations of sleeping sickness, and bringing Africa one step closer to being free from neglected tropical diseases!

We are currently working to identify contacts of an individual who travelled to England while they were unwell with Lassa fever. This individual returned to Nigeria, where they were diagnosed.
Full story news 🔗📰

ALT Dr Meera Chand, Deputy Director at the UK Health Security Agency, said: "Our Health Protection Teams are working at pace to get in touch with people who were in contact with this individual while they were in England, to ensure they seek appropriate medical care and testing should they develop any symptoms. The infection does not spread easily between people, and the overall risk to the UK population is very low."

An extraordinarily strong lesson on the importance of good science, critical thinking, and being truly objective.
The damage done to trust and to patients by the hydroxycholoroquine debacle should never be repeated.
Would love to know the reasons for retraction.

Extraordinary: Raoult’s damaging paper on hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 finally retracted.
So grateful to all the people who helped with the RECOVERY trial, allowing us to debunk the myth of hydroxychloroquine for severe COVID-19

Good news stories in global health don’t get as much coverage as the failures.
We should all take a moment to congratulate Rwanda for how they’ve managed this outbreak to date.
This piece is a great summary of where things stand with Marburg in Rwanda 👇
