@nisreen Hi, my table is the four bio metadata options I put in when I edited my profile. I am on qoto, so the table may just be an aspect of that server and not on all. J
Just joined, so thought some links to my recent work can help folk see what I am about. First up, a piece from me back in May in #TheLancet Regional Health Western #Pacific: 'Can #ivermectin mass drug administrations to control #scabies also reduce skin & soft tissue #infections ? Hospitalizations and #primarycare presentations lower after a large-scale trial in #Fiji'. #scabies #NTDs #dermatology #tropicalmedicine #globalhealth https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanwpc/article/PIIS2666-6065(22)00069-4/fulltext
