Trying to stop the spread of bird flu (and other poultry pathogens!) has been proving immensely difficult, with no easy fixes. I write about why this is today in The @Telegraph. 🐔🦠

A big thanks to everyone involved with the project. @liza_p_semenova for some excellent code support, R. Sonabend for the non-epi perspective, W. Hinsley for data wizardry, and @dr_anne_cori and @neil_ferguson for the best mentoring there is. Time to get to work on the next one!

This is ofc a v. brief summary, you may be thinking: "But what about X? Did you not consider Y!?". We have a big thick supplementary doc attached that looks at all these specifics. In general, every tweak and consideration does not change the headline results above.

Our paper looks at England at the "LTLA"-level. That's England divided up into 306 little chunks. And each of these little chunks had their own, often very different, number of COVID-19 cases over time. See in fig A) the national totals of new cases, B&C) examples of two LTLAs.
