🇸🇪 Beth Savagar gave a presentation today at #SVEPM2024 on ‘Modelling the impact of heterogeneity in small ruminant populations on peste des petits ruminants virus (PPRV) transmission and the effectiveness of vaccination for eradication’. #WOAHCCRAM@APHAgovuk@RoyalVetCollege
Pleased to have published this paper from my PhD research on the global eradication of peste des petits ruminants in heterogeneous small ruminant populations... #pestedespetitsruminants

When schools close, a concern will be ensuring that all children have the resources to learn from home. This is crucial for disadvantaged students who are likely to need online resources the most. We need to try and limit the impact on the attainment gap as much as possible.
And finally, we can check on our neighbours, reach out to isolated people, and volunteer or donate as we can. Because at the end of the day, our papers can wait.
UPDATE: #Coronavirus
➡more intensive interventions now needed in UK to slow down #COVID19 spread, reduce pressure on healthcare & protect those most at risk
➡️careful monitoring required when interventions relaxed

How does mathematical modelling analysis feed into UK government COVID-19 policy? You've probably heard of Cobra, chaired by the PM, but there are two other steps worth knowing about... 1/
Had an excellent two weeks learning about mathematical modelling of infectious diseases @wellcomegenome. Feeling inspired by everyone involved and excited about spending the next 4 years making models of PPR! Thanks #mmidd !
Another #mmidd course comes to an end at Hinxton with an impromptu session on control of bovine TB from me as the last modeller standing not swept up by Covid19. Huge privilege working with such a diverse group of researchers, safe travels home. #mathsparty2020
#BREAKING: @WWF's Living Planet Report 2018 is out, providing scientific evidence to what nature has been telling us repeatedly: unsustainable human activity is pushing the planet’s natural systems that support life on Earth to the edge. #LPR2018

Today we are stepping-up our efforts to turn the tide on plastics by launching a consultation on the ban of plastic straws, stirrers and cotton buds.
Take part in our consultation and have your say: https://t.co/J7L3Ao1xeN #PassOnPlastic#DrowningInPlastic
"Let's stop signing trade agreements with those who don't comply with the Paris Agreement,” said France’s President Emmanuel Macron. Right now that's only one country...the United States. #YEARSproject
Research published in Nature by scientists from leading institutions across the globe. We are pushing the environment to its limits and it's reaching breaking point. What more does it take for people to sit up and listen? #climatechange#climatebreakdown
Always think it's important to be mindful of not just following the latest fads in eating green. Not convinced that customer choice is a good solution though! @guardian https://t.co/a63GFOZhWp
@TfL Is there any way to get a more instantaneous response rather than waiting a week to hear if the property has been found? I have quite precise details of the item and where/when I lost it. I don't mind not getting it back immediately but would like to know if it has been found.
