Excellent reporting by Laura Martín Agudelo on why Cyclospora outbreaks are so hard to trace. One key epi point: case reporting lags of up to 6 weeks significantly impairs outbreak investigation and response. #EpiSky #Cyclospora #idsky @martinenserink.bsky.social www.science.org/content/arti...

Why is tracing the source of cyclosporiasis outbreaks so difficult?Parasite’s biology, combined with logistical issues and budget cuts, make tracking it a major challengewww.science.org

CDC’s July 24 Cyclospora Outbreak epi curve has prompted many interpretations, this is my preliminary take, which I’ll update as more data become available. Source: lnkd.in/eyJncA-f @altcdc.altgov.info @fda.gov #publichealth #cyclospora #episky #idsky #medsky #TaylorFarms #TacoBell #Lettuce

A defense of MAHA that begins by conceding its political champions wrecked scientific infrastructure, promoted antivaccine views, and undermined expertise doesn’t rebut the critics, it summarizes them. Public health doesn’t need MAHA. MAHA needs public health’s credibility!!

@bethmariem.bsky.social Thank you for correctly describing FoodNet’s objective. It is essential for tracking trends and burden of foodborne illnesses, not real-time outbreak detection or response. The cuts matter, but so does precision, and too many accounts have blurred that distinction.

On #WorldHepatitisDay: Hepatitis E Virus causes 20 M infections/3.3 M symptomatic cases annually. A hepatitis E vaccine was 95.5% effective in a 2007 trial, yet was never developed further. Why? www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.... @worldhepalliance.bsky.social #idsky #episky #medsky #publichealth

Apparently these funding opportunities include relocation grants for entire countries. Up to $80 million for data, surveys, and surveillance but apparently not a dollar for cartography!! #Africa #GlobalHealth #Cartography #DataVisualization #MapFail

Absolutely agree with Dr. Hammer @epihammer.bsky.social . Data and hypotheses generated through #Fieldepi inform academic research in many ways. That’s why funding for shoe-leather epidemiology must be preserved, it strengthens both public health practice and the sciences. #EpiSky #PublicHealth
