@leecrawfurd Very interesting! The dropbox doesn't work for me, is it published somewhere as a PDF?

Great to be at the #UKHSA23 conference. Learning about avian influenza, vector borne disease expansion with climate change, JCVI governance, pandemic preparedness and finally AMR (@connie_longmate pictured). Fantastic to see the One Health focus throughout.

Huge effort on behalf of research and clinical staff, and the amazing people who volunteered

@rob_aldridge @IHME_UW Congratulations Rob!
