Delayed seroconversion for primary syphilis infection whilst on DoxyPEP demonstrated in this study. An even greater challenge with the switch from TPPA to TPHA due to global shortages. Absence of T pall PCR for symptomatic infections in most centres also a concern…

We are, and should be, concerned about the explosion of #mpox in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, now reaching neighbouring countries and beyond. Thank-you for your support in sharing the latest factsheet here: who.int/news-room/fact…

#Mpox is a solvable problem -- I fully agree with Gordon Brown, World Health Organization (WHO)'s Goodwill Ambassador for Global Health Financing. While leadership by affected governments and communities is key, international support and solidarity is absolutely needed to end the crisis.
