I really enjoyed this meeting for the Emerging & Zoonotic Infections Health Protection Research Unit. So much great science, and a fantastic training environment for PhD students and post-doctoral researchers. I feel very fortunate to have been involved, and I'm sure its 3rd iteration will be superb

Today, we conducted a simulation admitting a person with mpox into our Emergency Department & then critical care. Royal Liverpool Hospital is one of a handful of hospitals designated to look after people with Highly Infectious Diseases, like mpox, & it's important to regularly test our readiness.
