PubMed is down

We have no real information but it appears that PubMed and PubMed Central are inaccessible at present.

The alternative is Europe PMC - which actually has some advantages.

europepmc.org/

I hope their servers have the capacity to cope with a massive increase in load.

Be patient. I am sure they will do their best to cope.

(Currently having a break so not regularly posting but this its being discussed across the internet and could be of great importance. Or just a temporary technical issue. Whichever it is, members need to know.)

This is very concerning.😟 Fingers crossed that it is, as you say, just a temporary technical issue. 😟

I wonder if this could be behind DailyMed not being available too.

So much updating and removal of info - sadly. I downloaded some NHS info recently concerning the 3 more serious side effects of the BCG vaccine. I printed it off. When I returned to the site very recently the side effects had been changed and seemed similar to another v@ccine - no mention of the bone inflammation, abscesses and bodily TB described earlier. I had all three ! Ummm ?

Not what you're looking for?
