"After almost 7 months with your manuscript we are sorry to communicate that it has been rejected, the reason? Well... we only found one reviewer." Reviewer's comment: "line 77 do you mean this instead?" I did not know that I was researching something as weird as "what does a black hole smell to".

Happy news from our PReCePT programme: concerted national efforts can effectively and cost-effectively improve quality of perinatal care, helping protect preterm babies ❤️
