Very worrying @Parents_Utd @SafeEdScotland @SGriffin_Lab

Six children die with Strep A bacterial infection https://t.co/SitkrP00T7

@Sandyboots2020 Our kids continue to wear FFP3 at school. Unfortunately, for our younger one — she is the only one in the whole prep/primary school - but she doesn’t mind at all

So delighted to have co-written this article especially with @FanstoneJoey who at the time was my third-year @uniofbrighton project student! Congrats to research Dream Team esp @louisemackenz13 @SurajitStat @abhirupb88 @MichailMamalak2 https://t.co/6cF2c97Cav

@doctorshaib Happy Diwali

[Prof. Surajit Ray @SurajitStat]

@microlabdoc Similar problem. This year there is even more abundance with the warm weather. Already had few rounds of cake, pie, crumble, chutney.. still at least 200 hanging.

@H_S_E @CathNoakes Congratulations @CathNoakes

@covidisairborne great initiative towards clean air

[Jon Levy @jonlevyBU]

Some periodic thoughts on today's White House Summit on Indoor Air Quality...

@AshishKJha46 kicks off by drawing parallel with water. Important that policy solution for water was NOT to put everything on people to boil own water, but to have institutionalized and systemic change

[Prof. Surajit Ray @SurajitStat]

@Sandyboots2020 Wonderful.. very animated fox

[Prof. Surajit Ray @SurajitStat]

@PaulMainwood @kallmemeg Praying for his quick recovery.

Powerful speech from @paimadhu and every word is true
@Parents_Utd @world_vaccinate @WHO @LancetGH

[Ben Phillips @benphillips76]

Madhu’s speech at the International AIDS Conference just shook global health at the core. Three excerpts here.

1) Global health structures are racist; and this is not a bug, it is a feature.

[Prof. Surajit Ray @SurajitStat]

With school opening in #Scotland in less than a month we should absolutely fight for better ventilation in schools @Parents_Utd @ZeroCovidScot else we run into perpetual cycle of reinfictions with new variant

[Covid Action Scotland @ZeroCovidScot]

Agree - better ventilation and air filters would make a huge difference to children and school staff in Scotland, too!

[Prof. Surajit Ray @SurajitStat]

We look forward to making more contributions as a team @CVR_Genomics @CVRinfo @UofGlasgow @UofGMaths_Stats
by statistically modeling Scotland-wide health data @HDR_UK with a goal of monitoring infectious diseases.

1/3 Research briefing of our Nature paper on Omicron is now available. I am extremely honoured to have served as the lead statistician for this extremely important and timely paper. Thanks, @emcat1 for leading the team.

1/3 The Research Briefing relating to our Omicron paper is now online https://t.co/BTwv8iXqGU. We highlight the role of the EVADE team (from @NHSGGC SafeHaven, statisticians @SurajitStat, @CVRinfo virologists, bioinformaticians and clinicians) that prospectively analysed the data

[Prof. Surajit Ray @SurajitStat]

2/3
here is the link to the Nature paper. We successfully linked millions of health data records, vaccine data, and genomic data to understand the immune escape behavior of Omicron variant

@EKolaczyk @mcgillu @McGillScience congratulations @EKolaczyk. It was nice seeing you last December. Hope to see you soon again in Canada

[Prof Nisreen Alwan 🌻 @Dr2NisreenAlwan]

While we were focused on the wave of full and half resignations ONS released new figures today of 2 million people estimated to be living with #LongCovid in the UK, including 105,000 kids. Out of the 2 million, 807,000 had it for at least 1 year & 403,000 for at least 2 years.

[Simonne Weeks @simonne_weeks]

So proud of our @uniofbrighton MRes student, Anna Boss for getting her first published paper! with #DreamTeam @louisemackenz13 Abhirup @MichailMamalak2 @AndyJSwift @SurajitStat Bart @FanstoneJoey https://t.co/qAOwvfqvAm #studentengagement #studentsuccess #brightonachieves

[Prof. Surajit Ray @SurajitStat]

Glad to be part of the team working tirelessly over the Christmas break (early part of Omicron wave) to understand the difference from previous waves

📖NEW #Publication in @NatureMicrobiol | SARS-CoV-2 #omicron led by @emcat1!

The emergence of Omicron presented a step-change in the #COVID19 pandemic. We discovered that Omicron is a master of antibody evasion, making vaccines less efficacious (@Animal_Viruses & @SurajitStat)🦠

[Nature Microbiology @NatureMicrobiol]

Out now: SARS-CoV-2 Omicron is an immune escape variant with an altered cell entry pathway. By Brian Willett, Emma Thomson & colleagues. @emcat1 @CVRbioinfo #omicron
