@chngin_the_wrld @CIDJournal Thank you for the shoutout! Honored to have worked with all of our collaborators who made this global sentinel site surveillance for pediatric diarrhea/rotavirus a success!

In Japan, children are taught to act for collective benefit. Students clean classroom floors, take turns serving lunch in cafeterias. They are also shamed into following institutional expectations. This mindset contributed to relative Covid success https://t.co/SZooFAYhJv

[Gearoid Reidy リーディー・ガロウド @GearoidReidy]

As the world clamors for Japan to reopen its borders, one of the country's top virologists is rejecting the notion that we should go "back to normal."

That would mean returning to a world that is fragile and risky, Prof. Hitoshi Oshitani told me.

@ricardocasney @UPennDBEI Congratulations!!!

[Tomoka Nakamura @epitomoka]

Great class this week on infectious disease modeling in R & usage during #COVID19Pandemic taught by @C_Althaus @firefoxx66, Dr. Roland Regoes and Dr. Julien Riou. Extra fun added by learning curling after class! #wengen #swissepidemiologywinterschool

[Tomoka Nakamura @epitomoka]

My first tweet: better late than never! First time to meet in-person with my colleagues and stepping foot on campus as a PhD student at @LSHTM last week. #CovidIsNotOver but honored to be working with @kathmoreilly and fantastic @cmmid_lshtm colleagues!

#COVID19 has highlighted global differences in the pandemic response 🌎🌍🌏

What lessons can be learnt from the past two years?

Hear from infectious disease experts and #PublicHealth leaders at our online event with @NU_kouhou 👉 https://t.co/kaHaX7DWs3
