  1. We have fact sheets for many health conditions. Why isn’t there one for ‘What to do on the day your loved one dies’? | Ranjana Srivastava
    By Ranjana Srivastava

    The best doctors understand something that is easy to lose in the machinery of a hospital: death does not turn a person into an administrative task

  2. So Japan is trying something to help boost cybersecurity for #hospitals. According to The Japan News:

    "Medical institutions have faced challenges when implementing effective cybersecurity measures as there are multiple IT vendors for different medical devices. This means that facilities have to maintain numerous network connections linking their systems to the outside world.

    To address this, the ministry will provide subsidies to hospitals that consolidate their external connection points, simplifying monitoring and allowing for systems to be isolated faster in the event of an attack."

    The govt will also dispatch cybersecurity experts in the event of a cyberattack.

  10. Hi everyone 🖖

    If you are thinkging about using #nanopore for genomic surveillance in #hospitals, but don't have the #bioinformatics nor command-line skills, don't let that put you off.

    'Modernising Medical Microbiology', at @NDMOxford in #Oxford, has developed `OxBreaker': a graphical tool that can help identify budding #outbreaks by #healthcare professionals without having to upload your data to external servers and compromise patient privacy. Worth a read 👇

  16. CW: Death, very odd

    @Gemma

    #Hospital-acquired infections.

    #nosocomial #iatrogenic infections

    Because #hospitals are #superspreader locations now, especially for #Covid and other #airborne #aerosol diseases.

    They need #HEPA filters (the Cambridge UK hospital study is pinned to my profile).

    They need #P100 masks (the TB hospital proved that these work nytimes.com/2022/07/03/health/ )

    They have neither. It is safer to stay home if you break your leg than it is to go to the #doctor in most places now.
