Over 9 years, men could have had a 5-year career break to have the same publication rate as women. In other words, women would have had to take 5 maternity leaves of 12 months each. This can't be right? #Epidemics9 MRC Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis Lucy Okell Isobel Blake @dr_anne_cori Sabine L.van Elsland
