A shortage of Bicillin, a type of penicillin crucial to the fight against syphilis, especially to prevent the STI in infants, is alarming infectious disease experts. Such scarcity, they warn, could worsen the U.S. epidemic, I report for @NYTimes. 1/

Great to see a strong commitment to health in tonight’s budget — including $91m towards a new Centre for Disease Control and Prevention to meet the challenges of future pandemics, AND address Australia’s large and growing burden of chronic disease. Well done @Mark_Butler_MP.

A few Aussie MAEs on a journey to solve epi problems, understand how human behaviour drives epidemics, engage with our community, all while striving to reduce health inequalities and influence policymakers to make evidence-based decisions. Happy #worldfieldepidemiologyday!

The @WHO EC voted 8-6 against declaring a #monkeypox PHEIC. Legally, @DrTedros is not bound by their recommendation. For the first time ever, he declared an emergency against EC advice. That’s politically courageous & I applaud his historic decision

@Sharkviro @Virologica Oh sorry to hear this. He was a guest lecturer for a uni course and his myxomatosis work inspired me to get into epidemiology 🙏🏽

There is a growing third Omicron wave. The Technical Group on Immunisation has now recommended Australians over 50 receive a 4th COVID dose. If you are aged 30-49 you are also able to receive a 4th dose if you choose.

Unfortunately ending isolation based on time alone means that many people leave isolation still infectious - really need a negative RAT (not PCR, that could be positive for months) to prove no longer infectious

How long do we Isolate⁉️ NEW DATA @NEJM Only HALF of patients stop shedding #COVID (current wave) at day 5. If 1 in 4 patients w #Omicron are still shedding culturable virus on day 9, why is @CDCgov still recommending stopping isolation at day 5? bit.ly/3yjds8x

Today an emergency committee under #IHR meet to decide whether to advise @DrTedros to declare #monkeypox a #PHEIC
What does this mean?
