@JNJarvis76 taking us through the "bench to bedside" pipeline for the @ambitioncm2020 An excellent model, and reminder that the work is far from done when the clinical trial is finished. We need access, advocacy and engagement if we want to #endcryptodeaths by 2030π§«π¦ π§

Valuable insights from @drdavidlawrence on patient perspectives of the @ambitioncm2020 regimen. Bottom line: staff and patients prefer a single dose of L-Amb. "They want one yellow, not 7 yellows"ππ‘ Now to push for implementation with @SHARECM1 and @IMPRINT_NIHRGHR π§«π¦ π§

A @gaffi_org-led project, also co-authored by our IMPRINT group's leads @neleshg and @JNJarvis76 Through several work packages embedded in IMPRINT, we're hoping to improve the state of play for HIV-associated fungal diagnostics in Africa and SE Asia
What's the capacity to diagnose fungal opportunistic infections among people with advanced HIV in Africa? 3/4 of population still has no access to diagnostic tests for PCP and histoplasmosis Full text link: https://t.co/7m2exQZLbj

A chaotic state of diagnostics mostly means that patients with HIV and compatible signs & chest X ray are treated empirically for PCP. Often too late, with poor outcomes But this also means it's difficult to estimate the true burden of HIV-associated PCP in low-resource settings
What's the optimal diagnostic strategy for diagnosing Pneumocystis pneumonia? Who knows. Fact is we're in a pretty chaotic time, with clinicians and labs transitioning from one test to another. Latest: https://t.co/M9gVF6M7Ru
