If you missed yesterday's #IPHAForum Series event about cancer, watch it here bit.ly/3yZKtaR. Learn how Ireland fares on cancer survival rates in western Europe - and what we need to do to accelerate patients' access to the latest oncology treatments. #InnovateForLife
This is great &ks all the jurors&those who provided knowledge and skills to this forum. We cannot ignore the elephant in the room of GMI/Genuity taking Irish peoples &patients data for no benefit to Irish public with millions of public investment DonnellyStephen @SusanMitchell_
Jurors really wanted to ensure that their voice was heard. Today, they appear before the National Steering Group for Genetics and Genomics to share the verdict, including an appeal for more public engagement around ‘tricky’ health topics. Further info here bit.ly/IPPOSI22JuryReport

Almost none of what follows in this thread is true.
Transgenerational epigenetic inheritance has never been shown in humans, and in mice, the results are pretty ropey on the whole, underpowered, statistically questionable.
Exercise, eat well, but not because of flakey science.

These muppets (I am being kind) have treated me disgracefully and lost my baggage.
Their online 'tracing' system couldn't find the bag, so they just terminated my request, and Dublin Airport don't answer queries about luggage.
Stuck. Can anyone help? I have all the tags.

You might want to see @sky__john on this too , and worth a chat with @eosull who is excellent on it, But short answer is yes, misinformation can kill.

One of the most frustrating things with cancer misinformation is that while stories of patients ostensibly healed by 'miracle' alternative medicine get shared constantly, those sharing never seem to realise that these patients passed away soon after..

🚨 Do you think it's ok that the company who provide the prepared meals to 🏥, nursing homes & hospices, were issued a FSAI closure notice?
🐁🐀 were gnawing on the ingredients 🤢
⚠️ This is no longer just about 'nice meals', this is a serious food safety issue. ⚠️
Examples of #IrishFood culture often include artisan products, Michelin restaurants, or anything "premium".
But...True food culture is reflected in how we feed the most vulnerable.
We fund the tenders which facilitate this "food" given to people clinging to life in hospital 😤

A Metastatic diagnosis can feel very isolating but connecting with people who understand can be a huge help to living well with cancer
There are still places available for our Metastatic Breast Cancer Seminar on Oct 15th.
It will be an opportunity to connect with others & to explore the supports available to you.
Reach out if you are considering registering.
This day has been kindly sponsored by @RocheIrl

‘Whispers’ won gold! The play I produced, wrote and performed in took home the gold for best radio drama at the #imro2022 awards on Fri night. It means the world to me that this story has resonated with others & will hopefully raise awareness of the symptoms of ovarian cancer.

Just been told one of the victims of today’s bombings here in Kyiv was a young female paediatric haematologist, hit as she drove home from her hospital night shift. She has a 5 year old child. She cared for children with cancer. And Putin just killed her. – at Ukraine

On the need for dialogue! Completely agree. So very much. So much hate in the world, a lot down to fear, ignorance, the unknown etc. Dialogue is vital for the world to improve its current lot and get anywhere!
This is amazing to see 😍- resilience against such a difficult situation. #Parkinsons is brutal
