Such an important topic. Still can't believe the recommendations in France are to give children formula milk until the age of 3 yo (included)

[Francesco Branca @Branca59]

The 2023 Lancet Series on Breastfeeding will show how commercial formula milk industry exploits parents, health professionals & politicians with a marketing playbook that undermines the health & rights of children & mothers. Join the launch on February 8 https://t.co/wtEuP82mQY

NOW is the time for heightened awareness to be on the lookout for cases of acute flaccid myelitis in patients presenting with weakness: reports of widespread enterovirus D68 circulation across the US + Europe, and polio recently detected in NY and UK.
THINK AFM

[Dr Emma Hodcroft @firefoxx66]

Recently I've heard from collaborators in the US & Europe that #Enterovirus #D68 #EVD68 cases are on the rise.

EV-D68 is what I worked on pre-pandemic, & hope to go back to.
A significant autumn 2022 wave has been a recent concern.

So what is D68 & what might this mean?

Don't submit your papers to MDPI. Don't review for MDPI. Don't be an editor for a "special issue" of an MDPI journal.

Some thoughts from a co-organiser's perspective on hybrid conferences in the aftermath of #ProbGen22. I think hybrid conferences should be the default in the future, for all sorts of reasons, so lets try to make them work as well as possible. (1/7)
