  3. "Idk, I think it's less about empathy or compassion, and more about making sure the (hopefully small) group of uncaring people who enter medicine or allied health professions are incentivised to act pro-socially.
    Like, in your region, what studying conditions and working conditions are clinicians expected to tolerate? Do they receive a living wage throughout study and work? Is their livelihood for a single person or big enough they can build a household?

    Do they feel comfortable being a whistleblower when something goes wrong? (Numbers-wise, mistakes will happen over time.)
    How robust is the inspection or regulation? How flexible are the logistics of each sector?
    How many crises at once can be weathered without change to patient care? How long will it take to build back up that 'extra' capacity / contingency margin?

    Who (in what position, in which teams) is responsible (or in what order) for noticing angels of death? What about anyone with less final but still harmful motives?

    How severe are the consequences for failure? How many people feel compelled to hide errors rather than remedy them? What options for remediation are accessible to all staff, including contractors?"

  5. #Efficacy of late-onset #antiviral #treatment in immunocompromised hosts with persistent #SARS-CoV-2 infection, J Virol.: journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1

    These data indicate that late-onset DAA therapy significantly shortens #duration of persistent virus #replication in an immunocompromised host, which may have implications for clinical use of antiviral therapeutics to alleviate the risk of progression to severe disease in highly vulnerable patients.
