Wow! Doctors can advertise as specialist consultants without being on a specialist register with the GMC if they are working in a private healthcare capacity. Shouldn’t private healthcare operate by the same rules as the NHS on qualification? Transparency for pt safety @patientsassoc.bsky.social

Friendly reminder that tuberculosis isn’t an “1800s disease” and is in fact THE infectious disease that kills the most people in the 21st century. It is preventable, treatable, and curable, and yet it still kills over 1.2 million people a year because we don’t put the resources where the disease is.

Health research is one of those functions that if you stop it, people will not notice the impact tomorrow, or next month. This makes it hard to communicate its value, unlike, closed national parks during a shutdown. But it generates big public goods. Once that community is eroded, hard to recover.

NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.
Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

"Team rituals" are regular activities/practices, eg huddles, team lunches, check-ins, celebrations. New research shows teams with more rituals have more engagement, psychological safety, knowledge & job satisfaction, leading to higher productivity/performance: lnkd.in/eXNNvP-G Art: lnkd.in/e_XmBeg9

Agree with the commenter. Whilst this is all unsettling, at least it’s more crystal clear than ever which corporations and people humanity is up against.
