Was reflecting today on the various post-Covid reviews that have been done with a range of experts. Perhaps the most important thing is to ask the community: "If Covid were to happen again tomorrow, and knowing what we know now, what do you think we should do?"

It was amazing to attend the tbcre.org.au/event-details/… organised by the TB-CRE TB CRE . The public health community has done so much great work to control the pandemic. Now we need to get back into huge global challenges like TB, which are concentrated in the most vulnerable.

πŸ“’ Seeking participants for COVID research! We're studying the impact of COVID infection, disease severity, and long COVID in people without a working spleen & the general community. Anyone can participate regardless of if you have a spleen or not! (1/2) burnet.edu.au/research/proje…

Great work (and persistence!) from Peter Markey and colleagues to get this unique economic assessment of Covid management published! sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Leverages important data from a health system that wasn't overwhelmed by load.

Fantastic news that "Determining health needs & outcomes of key populations of people who use drugs" led by Burnet Institute 's Prof Paul Dietze has been funded and should lead to critical insights into the health of this important and under-studied group! nhmrc.gov.au/sites/default/…

Funding is so tight that I feel like we should write into our grant applications: "Well, I actually won't be doing much research on this project because I'll have to spend nearly all of my time applying to a whole load of other schemes with an 8% success rate."

Pleased to be involved with this great work led from RMIT. It leveraged the best quality (NSW) data we have on the important effect of vaccination during our first major waves of transmission. abc.net.au/news/2024-04-1…

Thanks Michael Plank . This was led by RMIT and I was lucky to join to offer some advice. It is nice to see a simple-but-elegant model drawing on the best data we have for Australia and offering some sensible results.

So excited that the team has been named as finalists in this year's Eureka Awards from the Australia Museum australian.museum/get-involved/e… It's fantastic recognition for the team's hard work with our collaborators across the Philippines, Malaysia and Vietnam.

Tremendous work by Romain from our team to quantify the effect of school closures on the COVID-19 pandemic across the world: monash.edu/news/articles/…
