iQ&A Update - June 2022

The iQ&A service is tracking the changing nature of the COVID pandemic and continues to release answers that reflect the evolving questions front line practitioners are raising. A large library of over 40 answers has now been produced, and new answers are being developed on variation in symptoms and re-infection. This library is being constantly updated to reflect the changing priorities and to provide information for use in practice.

For the IPCRG World Conference in Malaga, we translated 18 of the most popular and most recent answers to Spanish and 3 to Portuguese. These proved popular at our iQ&A and Sentinel Network stand and will shortly be available on our website.

The IPCRG Sentinel Network, continues to report their questions and concerns. We are  introducing new topics to the service to better inform our work on related issues. Applications to join the IPCRG Sentinel Network are welcomed from front line health care professionals working in primary care.

Our most recent published answers are:

• What does the evidence suggest will happen with COVID-19 as we move out of the pandemic?
• What is known about immunity beyond 6 months following COVID-19 vaccination (2 doses) and first booster dose, and does the evidence suggest that any specific groups would benefit from an additional booster dose?
