Proud that @SwanseabayNHS Ed Major ICU has contributed to this fantastic study throughout the pandemic. Well done @GenomiccStudy & @kennethbaillie.
Great teamwork in Morriston Hospital, @LukeNewey2 @rees_tabitha @harford_rachel @hilarywilary @Jilly9763 and Carl Murphy. And me.
6000 patients recruited to @GenOMICCstudy in the UK! Phenomenal achievement by research teams in 210 different ICUs. They work extremely hard, sometimes in incredibly difficult circumstances, to deepen our understanding of critical illness.

Over the last 6 months, we've learned a lot about how SARS-CoV-2 spreads🦠
What does the evidence so far tell us about SARS-CoV-2 transmission dynamics, high-risk activities and environments? Thread 🧵 (1/n)

Dozens of patients hospitalised with Covid-19 in Swansea have volunteered for a clinical trial which has already seen life-saving results. So far, 54 people admitted to Morriston or Singleton hospitals have taken part in the UK-wide Recovery trial sbuhb.nhs.wales/news/swansea…

"This is a remarkable result" feels like an understatement! Remember that we first heard of this disease only 6 months ago - and @PeterHorby helped start the first trial within a few days. Preparation makes all the difference. Great leadership by him and @MartinLandray.
Professor Peter Horby, who led the breakthrough trial in dexamethasone, says studies show the drug can save the lives of up to 35% of Covid-19 patients on a ventilator itv.com/news/2020-06-16/bori…

Nice news article about @GenomiccStudy, recruiting critically-ill patients all over the world to understand why some people are susceptible to life-threatening COVID-19
Humans "evolved in an arms race with bacteria and fungi that infect our bodies, and because of that our immune systems are very diverse across the populations, and for every infection that I'm aware of there's a very broad range of responses,"@kennethbaillie told @shinisomara
