Circling back (😉) to #ESCAIDE2024 - #DYK that we have launched the #ECDCLighthouse - a Community of Practice for social & behavioural sciences in infectious disease prevention?
Watch our #ESCAIDE correspondent @soniaboender.bsky.social talk to #ECDC's John Kinsman about it ⬇️

Delayed thoughts on some of the #ESCAIDE2024 talks.
First up: brilliant opening plenary by @christopherdye.bsky.social
Excellent discussion of prevention. I'm just putting up the thoughts that stood out to me. If I find out where/if recorded talks will be posted, I'll let everyone know.

Z #ESCAIDE2024 już wróciliśmy, więc jest czas na wrzucanie myśli. Z kuluarowych rozmów - mówi się, że spadek liczby szczepień w Polsce to wina ruchów antyszczepionkowych. Tymczasem 30% pielęgniarek uważa, że szczepionka p. grypie nie działa. A lekarze potrafią zniechęcać do szczepień choćby [cd ⬇️]
Closing thoughts from #ESCAIDE2024 plenary: Knowledge alone won't shift beliefs. 'We know that we don't know, but not what we don't know.' Changing risk perception and improving vaccine knowledge are key to rethinking the future of old diseases. #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth
Day 1 of #ESCAIDE2024 conference summed up in one place: www.escaide.eu/en/news-even...
Keeping up in the theme of Day 1, our #ESCAIDE correspondent @soniaboender.bsky.social asked Camille Jacqueline about her views on the concept of prevention vs. cure.

Where do you see the #education coming from so young researchers & students understand underlying concepts of #diversity and #inclusion?

Interesting presentation by Lieke van Alphen at #ESCAIDE2024 about genome sequencing for hospital based epi.
I'm really looking forward to soon having access to WGS for community epi in a timely enough manner to guide investigations and interventions - should be coming for TB in Quebec!

#ESCAIDE2024 day two! ❄️
A pesar de no poder asistir en persona, no he podido perderme #ESCAIDE2024, Congreso liderado por el @ecdc-eu.bsky.social. Primer día superado. Mañana, más y mejor #FieldEpidemiology
Back2back Stockholm - Torino on our upcoming study on the cost-effectiveness of PrEP policies in the EU. Boxuan Wang with a poster at #ESCAIDE2024 and me at the workshop at @isifoundation.bsky.social . Most current policies are projected to be CE, but not optimally so.
Chris Dye at #ESCAIDE2024: 'If prevention is better than cure, then why do we invest so little in good health and so willing to invest in cure?'
T. Adam’s 1814 words echo today: 'Hell is truth seen too late.' It's time to realign the incentives and act before it’s too late. 🌍 #PublicHealthInsights
Disappointed not to be joining #UKFETP, #EPIET and #EUPHEM colleagues at #ESCAIDE2024 in Stockholm today, but the weather in the Peak District is helping make up for i!t ❄️☀️ #peakdistrict #maternityleave
Great hybrid #ESCAIDE2024 !!!
I am home, but following the sessions!
Well the bummer of being at #ESCAIDE2024 virtually, is that some of the most fun parts are unfortunately innaccessible: coffee breaks, chatting with people, and #BarCamp.
#EpiSky
#escaide2024 has started. The role of behavioral and social sciences was emphasised already in the beginning. Looking forward to further discussions on this!

Und dann investieren wir in Prävention statt in die Behandlung von Kranken, was sich positiv auf unsere Gesundheitskosten auswirkt.

Vortrag von Chris Dye #PreventionBetterThanCure #ESCAIDE2024
"What matters are severe events that happen to people that we think are important" - a lesson that we can learn from gun regulation advocacy and TB advocacy.
@christopherdye.bsky.social @universityofoxford.bsky.social at #ESCAIDE2024 @ecdc-eu.bsky.social.
Welcome to this side; right on time for #ESCAIDE2024
Very nice first session at #ESCAIDE2024 on prevention.
Very glad to have a good recognition of the importance of addressing critical threats before they occur - an important tenet of #PublicHealth by @christopherdye.bsky.social @universityofoxford.bsky.social.

Well one benefit of jetlag is that getting up to catch the beginning of #ESCAIDE2024 is less unpleasant than otherwise!
#ESCAIDE2024 opening with Dr Pamela Rendi-Wagner
“Preparedness is much more than response. It is also #prevention.
The P is also in the #ECDC although it is not spelled. One of the most public health elements is prevention.”
