This little girl was my patient. I'm surprised how little people - even MDs and keyboard warriors- know about penetrating/gunshot trauma. Let me explain what this X-Ray means, how it clearly proves this girl has a gunshot, and why the haters are oh so very wrong. A #MedTwitter 🧵

I have been deeply mourning Dr. Hani Al-Haitham since he was killed a few days ago. I want to tell you about Hani, an incredible person and doctor. He was killed with his wife, Dr. Samira Al-Ghefari and their five children, Sherin, Thea (Tota), Sara, Samir, and Wafaa. A 🧵

I'm amazed by the steadfastness and refusal to surrender of the health care workers who made this possible. Wow.

Today, I will be arrested by police in London, Canada. The police will put me in jail indefinitely because I will not stop protesting against MP Peter Fragiskatos, who refuses to call for a ceasefire against the civilians in Gaza. What's happening. What you can do. A 🧵

Eyewitness accounts surfacing from Gaza's hospitals are harrowing and disturbing. An entire generation of doctors and health care workers has been targeted in this War on Hospitals. #NotATarget . A 🧵

First, there's history and clinical picture. The 1.5 yo girl was in her mother's arms very near a GHF "aid" site. They opened fire. She was struck and started screaming, with blood pouring down her right side. On exam, she was struggling, had crepitus, and an obvious entry wound.

I chose this X-Ray because it is visually striking and clear. That's why @glia_intl posted it. Despite copious evidence from multiple sources and over 550 mortalities at GHF "aid" sites, some called the veracity of these images into question. The keen-eyed knew better because...

Since the CT videos seem to have been deleted for some, here they are again.

It is no secret that students, residents, physicians, and others are being harassed for their human rights positions. The scope of this harassment is wide. I will dissect one such campaign, how it is executed, and why the template is so easy to repeat. Anatomy of a campaign. A 🧵

The X-Ray shows three clear signs she was shot: 1. A bullet; 2. A chest tube; 3. Air outside the lung, which was the crepitus I felt. The chest tube is to treat a pneumothorax (air outside the lung in the chest cavity), and was inserted when the US showed decreased lung sliding.

That's not a regular X-Ray at all. That is a scout, which means that it was done to properly stage a CT. So what does the CT show?

"We belong to our nation. In it we'll stay. We were born here; raised here; were students and spent our nights studying here. We worked here. We had a duty, and we honoured it. This nation is carried forward through selfless sacrifice, toil, and perseverance." Rest in Peace, Hani

The CT shows the bullet clearly going through child's lung, causing the pneumothorax and subcutaneous emphysema, and settling just on top of the right diaphragm posteriorly.
