emj.bmj.com/content/39/3/1…. For every 72 people waiting 8-12 hours before admission there is one additional death within 30 days.

Last year 14,000 people died needlessly from 12+ hour waits in A&E 😳 That’s not like road fatalities, where modern life means sadly there’ll always be some. That’s a number that should & could be zero. Extraordinary nugget from @RCollEM in @thetimes by @cazjwheeler @Ben_Spencer

Please stop asking me to re-do all of my mandatory training that I’ve done with every hospital I’ve worked at in the last 13 years (and there are MANY). It’s a tick box exercise that realistically provides no benefit to me, you, or patients.

University of Otago research shows free prescriptions mean lower hospitalisation rates. For every dollar earned from prescription charges, we could be paying up to $18 in extra hospital costs. This is absolute economic illiteracy from the people that promised more.

Our clinic where 21 staff and family members are sheltering came under fire this morning. Our vehicles were destroyed. We have still not been able to medevac the wounded pt from the previous attack as there has been no safe moment. This gets worse every day. We are #NotATarget

In #Gaza City, our clinic came under fire this morning. Our colleagues saw that a wall was torn down and part of the building was engulfed by fire, as heavy fighting took place all around it. An Israeli tank was seen in the street.

Across the health system tonight, ward Covid zones are full. Again. Emerg Depts are overrun & demand has to be seen to be believed. Again. It's a case of staff trying to get through the shift, giving the best care they can. Again. But it's like holding back the tide. Again.
