I am advertising two three-year postdocs to work on the within-host evolution and transmission of HIV and Hepatitis C virus using phylogenetic and population genetic methods. Both based at the Big Data Institute, Oxford University. https://t.co/O9zZPkiitx,

What a surprise ...
Hydroxychloroquine with or without azithromycin for treatment of early SARS-CoV-2 infection among high-risk outpatient adults: A randomized clinical trial Neither HCQ nor HCQ/AZ shortened the clinical course of outpatients with COVID-19. https://t.co/wZ0tEG45A9

With #COVID19 vaccine efficacy of ~95%, I'm looking forward to vaccine distribution in 2021 bringing the pandemic under control. However, I'm concerned that we'll see antigenic drift of SARS-CoV-2 and may need to update the strain used in the vaccine with some regularity. 1/18

It's incredibly frustration to have people who are clearly not experts in virology sending completely untrue things to their significant follows. As a herpes virologist I am extremely interested to learn about coronavirus latency.

@BallouxFrancois @GuptaR_lab Speaking as one the main data generators, we have released the sequences now until mink farm 65 for public health purposes, not for others to publish our data. The Science paper describes the first 16 mink farms. We are working on a manuscript describing these mutations

The rationale was set out in this paper from 1985. Well worth (re-)reading - and if you replace the phrase "mycoardial infarction" with "COVID" it is remarkable how much slots into place.

Implementation of Treat for All; Increased mobility of populations combined with the reported increase of DR in Africa; and Increasing proportion of MSM among new diagnosis which have faster transmission chains and less reversion of DR mutations are some of our hypotheses.

Our paper on trends of Transmitted (TDR) and Acquired (ADR) HIV Drug Resistance in Portugal is finally out! While ADR is decreasing, TDR is significantly increasing. We postulate on why this is happening. Here's the link to the full text: https://t.co/1rAfnM3YzK

Introduction: Treatment for All recommendations have allowed access to antiretroviral (ARV) treatment for an increasing number of patients. This minimizes the transmission of infection but can...
