We are very grateful to the @escmid.bsky.social Study Group for Mycoplasma and Chlamydia Infections (ESGMAC) Mycoplasma pneumoniae Surveillance (MAPS) study group members and collaborators, and to all those who helped with the ESGMAC MAPS study.

We describe the clinical severity and outcome of infections, while providing an explanation for why this pathogen re-emerged much later than other respiratory pathogens.

Two questions for you based on conversations at home as we survive what seems to be a flu outbreak.

1. Are the types covered in the nasal spray the same as those in the injected?
2. Is it know if the nasal spray is less effective/more effective/no different for reducing severity as the injected?

Are you like me and want to know the likely candidates causing the respiratory tract infection outbreak in your home this weekend?

If so, check out the Weekly Acute Respiratory Infection Report from PHW – it’s a thing of beauty! www2.nphs.wales.nhs.uk/CommunitySur...

This was the second time when I did not get an alert but my wife did.

Trying to decipher this passive-aggressive message about my contribution to society and the lack of need to be saved 😂

If you have published in The Lancet Microbe and I haven't followed you back, reply here and I'll remedy the situation. I'm struggling to keep up. 😅

We are happy to announce that we received once again over 7000 abstract submissions for #ESCMIDGlobal this year. A big thank you to all who submitted to be part of our congress and we look forward to seeing your incredible research on display in Vienna in April! #IDSky #clinmicro

I am really liking the new format! So much easier to see the changes in numbers over time.
