As the festive season approaches, celebrate responsibly and remain vigilant.
Public health security is a shared responsibility.

Some incredible science coming out of the Long COVID conference in France this week.
Viral persistence, autoimmunity, immune dysregulation, biomarkers, and clinical trials.
It’s crazy how far this field has come in just five years.
