The high failure rates for vaccine development projects & the logistical challenges would make it very risky to rely on a Connaught 2.0 to rapidly develop & test a vaccine, write Paul Grootendorst & Javad Moradpour in their latest Memo. bit.ly/3cliGt3 #cdnhealth #cdnpoli

Would it now make sense to create a new public vaccines agency — a Connaught 2.0? Read Paul Grootendorst & @JavadMoradpour’s @financialpost Op-Ed for more: bit.ly/3NDZCDN #cdnhealth #cdnpoli

@ReedBeall, @JavadMoradpour and I find that of all published medical research on covid, only about 2% is funded by industry. The other 98% represents a huge, international, public effort to figure out the virus, understand transmission, and how to stop and treat it.


A neat animation about how mRNA vaccines work! youtu.be/8nD6Q9X0SFw


The Covid 19 pandemic has set us back a decade when it comes to the progress reached by childhood immunization! What can we do to catch up?! youtu.be/yTHGknKHh4g


"As many scientists have observed, you have a greater risk of being badly injured in a car crash while driving to your vaccination appointment than actually being harmed by a COVID-19 vaccine." theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…


There are a lot of misinformation about vaccines and vaccination out there. This video clarifies some of them. youtu.be/K3odScka55A

Cost-effectiveness thresholds are widely used by public insurers as a tool to decide what medical interventions to fund. They affect almost everyone. This new paper with @JavadMoradpour digs into the economic theory, focusing on 3 questions. I summarize. doi.org/10.1002/hec.42…

How neglected are the diseases of poor people? In a new study forthcoming in @HealthEconomics, @JavadMoradpour and I estimate the relationship between the number of clinical trials for a disease, the number of DALYs (=health loss), and average income of patients. [thread...]


Working on my new project about pandemic preparedness, I came across this article from 2014. It is still very relevant today: nytimes.com/2014/09/04/wor…


"Even on a sped-up timeline, a vaccine is still months away. But once it arrives it's unlikely to meet all the hopes we've placed in it" theatlantic.com/health/archive…
