Für mich eines der Highlights vom #ECCMID2023: Plazebo-kontrollierte doppelt-blinde Studie der @UniofOxford zu Post-COVID Fatigue.
Signifikante Verbesserung der Fatigue durch AXA1125 (ein Peptide mit Metabolismus-modulierenden Eigenschaften).
Ok, that's a wrap for #ECCMID2023. Time for me to head back to my own "Hotel d'Angleterre".
Excellent conference. Lots of learning, networking and, yes, even socialising! 🍻
Thank you to organisers and all friends and colleagues who've made conference so enjoyable this year! 👏
@mackayim2022 very fair point.
I tried, but hard enough to live tweet to also live toot at the same time!
At conferences, the power of twitter's established network effect is amplified further as well. Even the part time viewers go there to discuss work presented, making principled avoidance of twitter an even more self-defeating exercise.

Preprint of this work also available here, but always more enjoyable for a F2F chat! #ECCMID23 #tuberculosis

Fabulous overview by Paul Bastard on the role of type I IFN auto-antibodies in increasing risk to:
- severe #COVID19 (adults & children)
- severe #influenza
- yellow fever vaccine adverse events
- West Nile virus encephalitis (unpublished)

One of the highlights of #ECCMID2023 has also been the #architecture in Copenhagen

Chakrabarti: “In 2021 there was a tsunami” of mucormycosis in wake of Covid, with 50,000 cases in 3 months. Covid patients unable to receive proper evaluations. Everyone got steroids, many already had diabetes. Also noted high indoor spore counts at homes #eccmid2023

:⭐:Comparable treatment success at day 7:⭐:
Faster bacteraemia clearance at day 3 with fosfomycin.

Hello let's have a meet up at #ECCMID2023 What's the best way to get in touch with you? @gpollara @GermHunterMD
