Thanks to SynBioBeta and Leaps by Bayer for this projected visual timeline of #COVID19 treatment and prevention.

The Global #Rheumatology Alliance needs to understand how #coronavirus affects rheumatic, autoimmune and autoinflammatory diseases in Europe. Join the registry at www.jarproject.org/covid #COVID19 http://simonstones.com/…/covid-19-europ ean-rheumatology-pa…/

#WORDDay2020

It's #WORDDay2020! While attention is rightly on the COVID-19 pandemic, the fact remains that there are children and young people out there, right now, living with rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases - which don't suddenly disappear when situations like what the world is facing right now, happen. It is so important that we place the spotlight on these young people, and their families, who are naturally at a greater risk of complications from the virus, while trying to control their existing diseases. So today, please stop, think of these young people, and do your bit to raise awareness! World Young Rheumatic Diseases Day - WORD Day

Good to see our #rheumatology community coming together once again to launch a secure, de-identified, international case reporting registry of people with COVID-19 who also have rheumatic and musculoskeletal diseases. Find out more: https://rheum-covid.org #evidence #covid19

16 weeks... 113 days... 2712 hours... 162,720 minutes. Time continues to pass by at the speed of light, yet sometimes it feels as though the clock remains stuck on 11. http://simonstones.com/2020/03/09/113-day s/

Strong women have surrounded me from the day I was born - at home, at school, at work, and in all that I continue to do. Here's to each and every one of you! 🙌 #IWD2020 #IWD #IWD20 #InternationalWomensDay #EachforEqual
