John Hinds (21 March 1980 – 4 July 2015). We are still ‘keeping ‘er lit’ John.

5) We know Boris won’t resign, and Sajid Javid loves Ayn Rand too much to back down, but I hope Professor Chris Whitty Chris Witty will find the empathy in his heart to oppose the sadistic Boris’s 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 strategy of mass infection that is = “Epidemiological stupidity”, or resign in principle.

Dear England ⚽️ fans, I’m very sorry your team lost. But your country will lose much much more if Boris Johnson & Sajid Javid & Professor Chris Whitty callously goes ahead with July 19th mass reopening — aka “mass infection”. History will remember the pandemicidal leaders. 🧵 ⬇️

England COVID-19 Healthcare. 🟪 Patients admitted 🟧 Patients in hospital 🟥 Patients in ventilation beds

Today is the second reading of ‘Health and Care Bill’ in Parliament. As a passionate supporter of the NHS,it’s my appeal to all the MPs to oppose it! NHS once gone is gone for ever! Please publicise this widely!

Today’s Covid figures are horrendous. Another 48,553 cases. How - when we’re a whisker away from 50k new cases daily - can Boris Johnson possibly plough on with so-called ‘Freedom Day’? He is abdicating all responsibility in 4 days time. It’s grotesquely selfish.

48553 cases today. 100 more patients in ICU with covid19 than 5days ago. No one talking about covid length of stay so I will. Median ICU stay:- Heart/major cancer surgery 1-2d Covid (not ventilated) 5d Covid (ventilated) 20d Covid (kidney support) 32d Do the maths

GENIUS! This is how a vaccine works. x.com/neverseentit/s…

Yesterday we awarded Mr David Nott the President's Medal at our Diploma Ceremony. Since 1993 he has spent several weeks each year working in a voluntary capacity on annual leave in disaster zones. Many congratulations on this well deserved award. #RCPSGCeremony David Nott Foundation

Great reflections on this case by the authors who are a bit hard on themselves for not going straight to the neck. I think most of us would have found that confronting, esp w a vascular mass there. Pleased to note the @UniversalAirway guidelines would have addressed this well.

Every anaesthetic decision needs to take our climate crisis into account. Every single action counts as every thing is at stake. It’s net zero now or never. This week UCLH we will be sharing our green anaesthesia and theatres strategy 💚 Association of Anaesthetists Royal College of Anaesthetists Greener NHS #COP26

If you’re waking up, it’s worse than anyone imagined. Strikes across entire country. So much of this is on us. We laundered Putin’s money. We provided safe harbour for his chums. And in 2016, when he attacked the US & UK elections, we played dumb & covered it up.

MONKEYPOX outbreak in UK, Portugal, Spain—CDC is very worried about transmission & warning that the UK outbreak could spread—Portugal & Spain also likely outbreak. #Monkeypox is fatal in ~1 in 10 cases, with severe disease & death more likely among kids.🧵 statnews.com/2022/05/17/cdc…

So being a gay infection doctor I am used to getting messages from friends regarding PEP/PrEP. But last few days have had quite a few messages from worried friends. So thought I'd create a tweet of my advice following the current guidance that is developing and in flux.
