Thank you Penygarn Primary .lovely artwork - you are very talented.

NEW: a common response to reports of hospitals struggling this winter is "it’s no different to a bad flu season!" I’ve tracked down historical data on flu ICU admissions, including winter 2017-18, a record high. Here’s how England’s Covid winter compares to a bad flu season 📹

We can also address claims like "hospitals are always full in winter", or "it’s just people who were already in hospital for other reasons catching Covid on the ward" Here are numbers of people in ICU beds (for any reason) in London hospitals, each winter Spot the odd one out

Unless there has been a coincidental 50% rise in ICU admissions for other reasons (narrator: there hasn’t x.com/john_actuary/s…), the only explanation for an unprecedented surge in ICU occupancy this winter is people who are there *because they caught Covid*.

Definitely true at Cardiff Emergency Medicine Education 💙

CPD points from Royal College of Anaesthetists now approved! Join Dale Gardiner Jill Featherstone 💙💗 and I for an webinar on how to use practical ethics (might be useful in the current circumstances...) 26th Jan 1830 anaesthetists.org/Home/Education…

Chest and head injuries cause particular concern for our patients. However, if you feel like you can still use the phone, and it's not a 999 emergency, please #PhoneFirst and call #CAV247. Emergency Consultant Tim tells why it's safe to do so 👇
