Can’t begin to describe the impact Flu is having on kids this season. Wards full, otherwise healthy kids dying from complications due to influenza. This virus is nasty in children. Vaccines are free for those 6mo-5yrs and older kids can grab one from their GP- please do 🙏

We stand behind Academy Fellow Professor @EdwardCHolmes and his rigorous approach to scientific inquiry. He’s spent decades working on virus evolution. His research has been instrumental in the fight against COVID-19 and he’s now looking ahead to understand how we can help
