Had a great time in Bristol last week for the @MedResFdn_AMR PhD Training Programme!🦠Loads of really interesting talks and met some lovely people 🙂

[National PhD Training Programme in AMR @MedResFdn_AMR]

Highly commended runners up were Group 1A; @ElliotStanton5, Lucile Hubert, @emmapritchy, @Lucy_May_Miller & @beccahull_ for their proposal to help reduce antibiotic💊use by using lateral flow tests to distinguish between bacterial and viral infections in young children 👏👏

Two bits of good Covid news today in the UK.

First, adding another two weeks of ONS data means Covid’s infection fatality rate has now crossed below the "2x flu" line.

Latest IFR is roughly 60% higher than flu and still falling.
