My perspective on AAs; a 🧵 I was an ANP before medical school and am now a specialty doctor in anaesthetics. I work with 2 qualified AAs who are excellent, I am often asked for my opinion given my background, so here it is a long thread including my own story.

I am embarrassed to say I didn’t really know that much about the differences in RSV subtypes prior to reading this study. Relieved to find out that I didn’t need to know because they are pretty similar. 😅 academic.oup.com/cid/advance…

Anyone at a loose end before the Toon match v Man. Utd can I recommend trying to get a place @ToonLibraries to listen to @drkathrynmannix talk about death, dying & grief. Trust me, It'll be worth the entry fee £0.00

Either the Tories have not thought through the implications of the post-brexit immigration rules... or they have thought them through all too well. I have a nasty inkling of what they might be up to, but it takes a bit of explaining. Let's start with "before brexit"... 1/

On the Today programme this morning Sir John Bell echoed the official story that in the first six months of the pandemic we faced a new virus with little evidence to guide us. Nothing could be further from the truth. THREAD (1)

Probably good there was minimal data collection in 90s so couldn’t draw graphs ….but it was really awful then too. The @UKLabour government 97-2010 transformed our #NHS into one of the best in the world. 13 years of @Conservatives have almost broken it – at North East, England

Donald Trump is now 10 points ahead of Joe Biden in the US polls. If Trump wins next November, NATO countries are going to have to step into the leadership gap that will immediately open up. And Ukraine had better win its war quickly.

Is this your idea of “keep the public safe during periods of strike action”? It’s not mine @10DowningStreet

900,000 appointments have been cancelled due to strike action this year. We’re considering introducing minimum service levels to keep the public safe during periods of strike action. Essential services must be available to those that need them.
