We can now see just how effective the RSV vaccine has been in protecting older adults and newborns.
Two new Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) vaccination programmes were introduced to the NHS Vaccination Schedule last September; an older adults programme & a maternal programme.

RSV is responsible for over 3 million hospitalisations worldwide every year. It can be very serious, especially for young babies.
Tune in to the @ESCNHstandards and @EFCNIwecare Speak Out session to hear more from parents of children affected and the science behind RSV disease.
Join us on 23 Oct for our “Speak out session” on RSV! Hear from Dina Hediger, mum of preterm twins affected by RSV, @LindsayBbent , virologist, and Dr Barbara Plagg, researcher and mum of a full-term baby hospitalised due to RSV. Tune in live on all our channels! @ESCNHstandards

with respiratory virus season upon us, a friendly reminder that the RSV vaccine is available to help protect older adults & those with weakened immune systems from severe RSV infections!
two types are approved: protein-based & mRNA-based 😊

Exciting times this month with roll out of RSV (bronchiolitis) vaccine to anyone pregnant. This is a subunit vaccine against the two RSV types. Getting it when pregnant will protect the baby via immune transfer in utero and via breast milk, as well as protecting the mother.
The NHS is rolling out the new RSV vaccine this week, and one of the groups it's being offered to is pregnant women (I think vaccination started in Scotland last week). gov.uk/government/publicatio…

Exciting PhD studentship opportunity for international students in my lab. If you are interested in generating novel virus-vectored vaccines against viruses considered by the WHO to be top priority public health risks, this may be for you.

Can’t wait to bring the QUB cross-faculty virology group to @balmoralshow to engage with farming community about viruses. I wonder how many are aware of the outbreak of avian influenza in dairy cattle across the US, and what it might mean for them?
Great 1st day at the @balmoralshow! Thanks to our @QueensMarineLab @QUBIGFS & @CPH_QUB colleagues for their contributions today and to @QUBEngagement for their immense efforts.
We're back tomorrow so come along & see interactives from #parasitology & @cggbamford #virology group!
