The overwhelming majority of our team (including some of the named PDRAs) have been part of the expanded SPI-M-O during the pandemic (with Professors Julia Gog and Matt Keeling acting as deputy chairs) and five of our investigators are core members of the inter-pandemic SPI-M. Professors Julia Gog and Ian Hall have regularly attended SAGE meetings, with other members attending to present individual packages of work. Members of our consortium chair or are part of other advisory groups, including SAGE-subgroups (Social Care, Environmental Modelling, Hospital Onset COVID-19, Regional Variation, International Vaccination, Children, Schools and Higher Education), the Vaccine Effectiveness Expert Panel, UKHSA’s Variant Technical Group and JCVI. We also have strong links with UKHSA (Professors Dani De Angelis and Ian Hall are co-funded by UKHSA while Drs Jon Read and Chris Jewell are part-time seconded to UKHSA for the pandemic) and JBC (including academic collaboration and membership of JBC’s Advisory Boards). One of our Co-Is (Dr Louise Dyson) is also currently on 50% secondment to the Cabinet Office COVID-19 Taskforce.
Reports to UKHSA
Monkeypox technical briefing 8 (part 5)
Work directly from JUNIPER has led to over 120 documents to SPI-M-O and 24 documents to SAGE. Below are links to the reports published in SAGE meeting minutes.
