  2. @VeroniqueB99 I have an older brother in New Jersey and I know what it's like. He also lost his wife to cancer and spent everything he had. At least here in Brazil, healthcare is free.

  3. Really still trying to connect, also with the international community. I am working in #healthservicesresearch at the #UniversityofCologne, heading a research group of 12. I am mostly working of secondary/ #claimsdata analysis, also #datamanagement and #datalinkage. Other work topics are #integratedcare and #businesscase development for #HealthIT.
    Outside work I do #DIY ( #woodworking #metalworking ), #gardening and #beekeeping

  4. `#HealthSciencesAssociationofAlberta called yesterday for an immediate end to the so-called #AlbertaSurgicalInitiative and “a return to full #publicownership of #private #surgical #facilities to prevent further #profiteering off essential #health #care services following explosive revelations that private surgical facilities contracted by [#Alberta] were charging more than double the cost of equivalent procedures performed in the #public system.”'

  5. This is scary.

    I was warned about the side effects of St John's wort three times, once by my doctor & twice by the apothecary, but if you are in the US, you might not get these warnings or a precise dosage.

  7. With great thanks to @masek and @JayeLTee and others who assisted or tried to, including Rogers ISP and law enforcement in Canada, we can finally say:

    Read about this very frustrating effort to get exposed patient data locked down:

    I'll give a shameless plus for #ggdist, which makes it easy to create a bunch of visualizations of distributions, including density plots, dotplots, and beeswarms: mjskay.github.io/ggdist/

    One big difference compared to ggbeeswarm is that ggdist will automatically set the dot size to ensure the chart does not overrun the display area

  9. The Texas judge who previously halted approval of the nation’s most common method of abortion ruled that some states can move ahead with attempts to roll back federal rules and make it harder for people across the U.S. to access the abortion drug mifepristone.

  10. Q. why does the Govt. want the GMC to also regulate physician associates & anaesthesia associates?

    The BMA thinks this will 'muddy the waters' on regulation of the #healthservice & will lead to #patient confusion about whether they have *actually* seen #doctors.

    But, perhaps the key thing to ask is what are the #Tories trying to achieve?

    As elsewhere they are trying to normalise the de-professionalisation of staff & dilute skills... in this case, to further damage the NHS's reputation!

  11. @junesim63

    yes, it all sounds familiar from the #healthservice doesn't it.... the #Tories small-state 'philosophy' (although its more like a prejudice to be frank) which underpins their agressive defunding of the #publicsector while syphoning off money to their chums is having widespread real wild consequences.... the difficulty is the media often don't want to put 2 + 2 to get 4!

  12. @KimSJ @Davidjackson

    Agreed; starving a model of funding does not provide evidence of the need for reform, ir provides evidence that you cannot run an under-funded #healthservice!

  13. Doing a quick round or two of #Hearthstone #Battlegrounds against #PathOfBriar on my #Twitch channel right now: twitch.tv/FiXato

    Won't be streaming long, and it will prob be without commentary.
