Crowdfunding provides pharmaceutical companies with an opportunity to gain free promotion for their products and puts pressure on public funders by demonstrating the patients’ willingness to get treatment. When there is a realistic chance of crowdfunding success and clinical benefit for the child, clinicians have a vital role to play in supporting families’ crowdfunding efforts. LS has provided paid consultancy for Novartis Gene Therapy, Roche, and Biogen, and obtained funding from these companies for a newborn screening programme in Belgium.

We conducted voluntary Covid-19 testing programmes for symptomatic and asymptomatic staff at a UK teaching hospital using naso-/oro-pharyngeal PCR testing and immunoassays for IgG antibodies. 1128/10,034 (11.2%) staff had evidence of Covid-19 at some time. Using questionnaire data provided on potential risk-factors, staff with a confirmed household contact were at greatest risk (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 4.82 [95%CI 3.45–6.72]). Higher rates of Covid-19 were seen in staff working in Covid-19-facing areas (22.6% vs. 8.6% elsewhere) (aOR 2.47 [1.99–3.08]). Controlling for Covid-19-facing status, risks were heterogenous across the hospital, with higher rates in acute medicine (1.52 [1.07–2.16]) and sporadic outbreaks in areas with few or no Covid-19 patients. Covid-19 intensive care unit staff were relatively protected (0.44 [0.28–0.69]), likely by a bundle of PPE-related measures. Positive results were more likely in Black (1.66 [1.25–2.21]) and Asian (1.51 [1.28–1.77]) staff, independent of role or working location, and in porters and cleaners (2.06 [1.34–3.15]).

\"It's nearly 10 years and nothing's changed (at the hospital),\" Ms [Nichole Bink] told AAP. Ms Bink went to see a cardiologist at the Royal Children's Hospital to find out if she had a genetic problem after [Liam] died, only to hear he was born with a fixable heart defect. \"He basically turned around and said to me, 'It's a 15 minute operation and it has a 99 per cent success rate,'\" Ms Bink told AAP on Saturday.

A day after calling on the deputy premier and Education Minister James Merlino to step aside, Mr Somyurek issued a statement describing the imbroglio as a tiff in the \"big and occasionally noisy\" Labor family. \"That's what I'll be doing, in addition to continuing to work hard for the people of the southeast who deserve representatives focused on their concerns and winning good outcomes for them by implementing the big agenda of the [Daniel Andrews] Labor government.\" Mr Somyurek's apparent mea culpa comes after Ms Andrews dismissed questions about the future of his deputy, James Merlino, a member of the powerful right-wing.

A man who allegedly made bomb threats on an international passenger flight from Melbourne is in custody as Police face questions over their emergency response.

My friends and I would probably rate this book around nine out of 10. When I asked a Year 2 girl to tell me what she thought of it she said that it was very interesting and she would read other books about [Polly]. A Year 3 boy said it was a very descriptive book and thought it was sharp and to the point and liked how it was done in the form of a diary, complete with Polly's handwriting and spelling mistakes!! He also said that he could relate to how Polly felt because every child looks forward to their birthday all year and hates it when things go wrong. If it were my birthday I wouldn't want to be Polly!!!
