Yesterday was a heavy day of forensic lectures. I have a deep respect for pre-hospital/ first responders and forensic teams. The things they see are unimaginable. #DisasterMedicine

Today’s major incident exercise at Koeberg. It was really interesting to see how the forensic team works. They are very meticulous about capturing every detail and piece of evidence on these scenes. (They are also very strong +++) #DisasterMedicine

Last night Peter suggested that I wear track pants to work because I was so cold. Told him it’s unprofessional but wore them anyway. Never have I been so warm *and* comfy at work. Mid shift I started wondering where I bought these and where I can buy more. What have I done?!

I’m honestly so impressed by int med and the diagnoses they make because infectious diseases and tropical medicine humbles me again and again 🔥 at least now I know what leptospirosis looks like 😅

It’s been a vv difficult few weeks, for ++ reasons. This morning on my way home, the sun was shining, and I saw 3 little girls laughing and playing in their now flooded backyard, but their pure joy sparked a small joy in me. I hope this image sparks a small joy in you too ☀️
