Excited to join the UHL Aintree team for my first QI collaborative. With @ColinSBrennan to fly the flag for pharmacy and see what we can do to help value patient time.

@LondonAllergy great to see the @SalfordCO_NHS immunology team demonstrating proper use of nose sprays today. Has been a take home for me from your book.
@emmavardy2@NCAlliance_NHS We donโt know for sure Emma but sadly the uncertainty means our roles are over.
The team have been so adaptable responding to whooping cough and mmr this year too. An outstanding group of staff. X

New paper in Heart compares vaccinated to unvaccinated with respect to cardiovascular events including myocardial infarction, heart failure, arrhythmia/cardiac arrest, myocarditis and clotting events including strokes, thrombosis deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and venous thromboembolism through 1, 2, 6, and 12 months in electronic medical record cohorts of 20 million from UK, Spain and Estonian.
They adjust for measured cofounders using propensity scores weighting, adjust for unmeasured confounders using negative controls, and federated learning to combine data across countries.
All events had significantly lower risk through 1m including myocarditis, and most through 12 months, providing strong evidence vaccination rollouts substantially reduced risk of cardiovascular events.

Cervical cancer will be almost eliminated in coming decades if HPV vaccination rates are high in children.
In England HPV vaccination coverage in schools is rising again but still below pre-pandemic levels. Please encourage children to get protected.

A huge feat for Emergency Medicine Pharmacy! Fantastic collaboration between @UKCPAEmergency and @RCollEM to produce this position statement and hopefully ensure pharmacy services are embedded in EDโs nationwide! @NCADandPGroup@Lindsay16734018@fghedteam
Brilliant sessions at the #ukivas meeting in Manchester. Lots of v interesting discussions-and opportunities to transform how we treat all patients esp frailty /pregnancy/new targets. We need better bio markers! Def one for @RenalPharmacy colleagues to look out for!
