Congratulations to @sspencer.bsky.social for publishing the final paper of his PhD! This describes the complexity of patients with breathlessness in Malawi. Whilst vertical programmes are important for individual diseases like TB, more integrated approaches are urgently required 🧪🩺 #ansky #idsky

And now, after 7 months of baking, the shiny @lancetgh.bsky.social manuscript has emerged! Very excited to share this as the culmination of a huge amount of work and fantastic/constructive peer review process. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan... 🧪🩺 #IDsky #icusky
