One year ago...performing urgent tracheostomies on Covid positive patients in Manchester Royal. I'm grateful for the national teamwork in governance and the vaccination programme making surgery safer for all of us..and to only rarely need to operate in such restrictive kit!

It's been a while since we were able to meet in person. @EAFPS have been running great zoom meetings. After speaking at EAFPS in Amsterdam 2019 on 3D digital measurement of facial microfat transfer volume changes, I hope we can physically meet in Nice this September!
