South Korea and Italy had near-concurrent outbreaks that initially followed a parallel, terrifying trajectory. Mere weeks later, as Italy reports 793 deaths in one day, Korea has two. Some days it has *zero*. Me and Choe Sang-Hun report how they did it: nytimes.com/2020/03/23/world…

While Italy is on quarantine, the Italian Air Force flies a single jet, representing the virus, to meet other jets that stream the colors of the Italian flag while Pavoratti's Nessun Dorma that has the lyrics "we shall overcome" plays. Breathtaking. 🇮🇹❤️

Wise words from Prof Jon Stone to move away from separating ‘brain conditions’ and ‘mind conditions’ - all coming from same organ. Distinctions may be helpful in terms of hardware or software problems. Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) - an intro youtu.be/w4lqr4Mo32M

As a psychologist working in mental health & long term health conditions, it is great to hear of work bridging the gap in services. Our physical & mental health are inextricably linked and opportunities like this @mearnsgolf can help significantly improve well-being.
