The best part of @DanielAndrewsMP’s announcement today is allowing visitors back into hospitals. It has been heartbreaking to care for people without loved ones at their bedside, especially those with cognitive impairment & of non-English speaking background #springst#COVID19Vic

Today should be a day we talk about how we fix the system. Doctors don’t have appalling mental health for no reason and as we remember our colleagues & friends lost to suicide and mental illness we must strive to do better & treat each other better #crazysocks4docs
Fantastic heme grand rounds on HLH at @DanaFarber @BrighamHeme today from @ZorefAdi @CCHMCPostdoc - a 🧵
Starting with a timeline, the pathogenesis and defining the clinical syndrome of HLH

Updated 2023 impact factor list for hematology/oncology journals
Interesting to see the post-COVID reductions as we get closer to normal
(Will add the few I'm missing when I get them) #medtwitter#hematology#IF#impactfactor
Fully vaxxed! I guess in the absence of a dedicated comms strategy or a responsible media all we can do is lead by example and have conversations with our patients 🤷🏻♂️ #AstraZeneca#Covid19vic
Whoever designed, approved and authorised building of 4-bed bays in hospitals should be forced to sleep in one next to confused or delirious patients. Cruel, stupid & so bad for patients. Makes me so mad that we are still building them. What about patient-centred care #medtwitter

Immortal time bias: a 🧵
When I was an infectious diseases intern, I attended @justin_denholm, Dr Street & @syctong's #VIDSJC journal club, we discussed this @JAMAInternalMed paper: Association of Evidence-Based Care w Mortality in staph aureus bacteremia jamanetwork.com/journals/jamai…
It honestly feels cruel to make inpatients pay for the TV - even more so at the moment when visitors aren’t allowed in due to lockdowns (which also seems inhumane). Sitting alone for days on end is bad enough
Vote Yes.
Proud to march in New York today in support of constitutional recognition of Indigenous people & a much-needed Voice.
This is a once in a generation opportunity to change our country for the better.
