NBTS remembers Dikembe Mutombo, who sadly passed away today from #braincancer. We send our deepest condolences to his family and friends. We will continue to work to conquer and cure brain tumors in his honor, and in honor of all those we’ve lost to this devastating disease.

Last night, Trump posted this meme on his TruthSocial account. In the MAGAReport today, I talk about the unfounded claims - which Trump shared in the debate last night - that inspired memes like this and how this is essentially a fascist call to violence🧵 tinyurl.com/the-maga-report

Did you know that data and agenda and stamina are the same grammatically? They all came to english from latin and have the same grammar rules. So, data IS singular. Cheers! vice.com/en/article/594aj8/i…

“77% [of pts] reported that they initiated the discussion about CRF with their provider, and 23% reported being told there were [tx] options for CRF.” 📣 Onus should not be on pts to initiate these conversations! Only 23% presented with options?? #ChoosePT we gotta do better!

At what point do we say that it is negligent to fail to provide this care? Especially in light of the evidence base and multiple guidelines. Cancer-related fatigue has one of the most robust evidence-base. We cannot continue to pick and choose when to follow the evidence.

4,500 physiotherapy staff in 33 trusts across England are on strike today. There are many ways to stand #WithNHSStaff, including visiting picket lines and amplifying the message using #CSP4FairPay. Find out how you can support strike action: csp.org.uk/supportfairpay

The UK government refused to hold meaningful talks over NHS pay. Yet again, NHS physiotherapy staff in England have no choice but to take strike action today. Show your support using #CSP4FairPay.

If I’ve learned anything from chemo, we’ve gotta make Twitter MORE toxic to make it better.
