Doing the unthinkable: The deep cuts to the #CDC's workforce today are expected to decimate the Epidemic Intelligence Service, a program that has trained public health rapid responders for decades. Envy of the world. Poof! www.statnews.com/2025/02/14/t...

CDC cuts expected to devastate Epidemic Intelligence Service, a ‘crown jewel’ of public health

Members of the CDC's Epidemic Intelligence Service were warned Friday that many of them were about to be fired

Enjoyed NT Live production of Macbeth on a cozy sofa in our local cinema. But a hard watch thinking about who will stand up to tyranny.

Censor CDC scientists and ask them to withdraw papers from medical journals? This is not how it works, Mr President. Our response @bmj.com on the Trump Executive Order and his "forbidden words" www.bmj.com/content/388/...

A challenge to us including reviewers and SciCo organisers, dealing with the reality that some US colleagues are now being politically censored.

“The hospital president announces that lunch and dinner are free..” UK/US culture gap in one. A lovely read.

One of the joys of the #BHIVA autumn meeting: catching up with colleagues I trained with back in the 90s and those who have come through Sandyford in the decades since.

A serious start at the #BHIVA autumn conference: pushing back on disparity between HIV and hepatitis B controls for HCW occupational clearance, challenges for prisoners living with HIV, and adverse impact of attempted prosecutions for reckless transmission. We still have to tackle #HIV stigma .

We were lucky to have Prof. Sarah Harper from www.ageing.ox.ac.uk/about setting the scene at the Scottish Intersystems meeting today, ranging from 1918 flu impact on life expectancy to senomodulators and the impact of diet on healthy aging. Certainly made the scale challenge clear.

Beginning to feel like old Medtwitter. So far no starter packs for STIs or HIV that I can see so starting a trawl for folk. We'll get IUSTI Europe account sorted.

More knee meniscus crumbling so cycling only at the moment, but what a great day. Started out with a planning call for #IUSTI 2026 meeting in Prague.

So taken the plunge hoping to find the good old days of ID medtwitter and nice stuff to keep us all going in the difficult days to come..
