I might not have time to do a lengthy blog posts so this is my #COVID19 reads thread...
A few things I& #39;m interested in
1. Vaccination developments
2. Potential drug treatments
3. Will public trust / understanding of science change ?

Vaccines are always a tricky one. Personal opinion is they are good and the evidence doesn& #39;t lie. Not sure if this will change the stance of many anti-vaccers though https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤨" title="Face with raised eyebrow" aria-label="Emoji: Face with raised eyebrow">

This treatment if used will focus on patients that are most likely to have exasperated symptoms or outcomes.
It& #39;s really interesting reading the differnt approaches being used
So vaccines vs plasma use as treatmenthttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Thinking face" aria-label="Emoji: Thinking face">

Ohhh another cool thing is that the UK want to roll out at home covid-19 testing kits that will be sold online
Idk why people have to buy it and there isn& #39;t an effort just to get more people tested to be used for future research.

Beautiful infographic!!! Guys take the 6ft thing very seriously!
For the general public washing hands and distance looks like the most sensible option
Maybe only use masks going into crowded spaces

need to fully read the paper above to properly communicate what it means to me. But what this shows that infection may not provide you with immunity but instead provide some form of protection in having severe disease. The human studies will be really interesting !

Not directly corona related but interesting read. I need to properly understand how research is done in Africa and the "heavy weight" countries.
Article summarises how access to lab materials has been easier during covid-19 but intl community also being a tad restrictive.
