Terrible paediatric joke of the week - let us know if you try it out on your patients. How do you get the Easter Bunny to keep working after Easter? You increase its CELERY!! ^ED

If the number of reported confirmed cases of #COVID19 continues to slow down, the 2% fatality rate people have been quoting will appear to rise. But it will be a statistical illusion. Let me explain why.... 1/

Almost 1/3 of kids with distal radius fractures receive procedural sedation with fracture reduction unnecessarily according to this new JAMA study. In kids <10y/o, 20 degrees angulation even with moderate displacement is acceptable & remodels on it's own jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
