@Fredros_Inc What a sad bit of news to read today. Dr Mwele was courageous and gentle at the same time. And quietly effective in so many ways. Ukiona vyaelea…

Dear Dr. Mwele Ntuli; RIP & C U Soon.

@DrRachelShelton Glad somebody took a moment to do that…whether it was 2 years ago, sometime last year, or when they saw you get off the elevator today!

After being remote 2 yrs, a highlight of this week was seeing my office door sign had officially been updated! We never really celebrated my tenure & promotion b/c it happened during the peak of Covid spring 2020, but seeing this made it feel a little more real & celebratory❤️🥳

In a long-term study of early-life #malaria control in high-transmission areas, survival benefit from early-life use of treated nets persisted to adulthood Fink et al 2022|| Mosquito Net Use in Early Childhood and Survival to Adulthood in Tanzania | NEJM nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

@ifakarahealth @LSHTM @SwissTPH What a satisfying result!

GROUNDBREAKING: Findings of a study by @ifakarahealth, @LSHTM & @SwissTPH which involved 6,700 children in Tanzania over two decades highlight new insights into long-term health benefits of using bed nets to prevent malaria. ihi.or.tz/our-news/57/de… #IfakaraNews #IfakaraResearch

And yet here you are, tweeting about it freely for all to see, despite my censorious, debate-closing powerfulness.
