29 March 2022 (Tuesday) - Transfusion Evidence Update

The nice people at the Transfusion Evidence Alert sent their monthly update today… and I had a look at the settings of my subscription with them. I couldn’t see how to change anything but they did have a link to a questionnaire about improving their services.

I asked for smaller updates but more frequently. They do swamp me with information…
