xitter.cf/ABridgen/status/175296… This is important stuff and asks the right questions. Why is this not being talked about? Was headline news all throughout the pandemic why suddenly so quiet? Thoughts?

Check out the blog post by the very lovely and knowledgeable @Imogensjones on ethics of care in death. @AAPTTweets could you encourage a conversation beween the apt members? Our services are driven by law often rather than care. Let's all chat about it? deadbodiesandthelaw.wordpres…

I have been kept company this am by this interview with the lovely Lee Gibbs @theaptone: player.fm/series/the-joe-mar… It's a bit sweary so perhaps not one for family-time, but sets out the role of APTs. Well worth a listen to those interested in medico-legal autopsies. @CDAS @ASDS

At the end of the week that can do-one, a small achievement: a blog with the wonderful @theaptone mortuary freezer capacity. This is especially relevant as we head into winter. deadbodiesandthelaw.wordpres…

ECONOMIES OF DEATH: THE CAPACITY CONUNDRUM

Lee Gibbs and Imogen Jones In this third joint Lee-ogen piece, we are travelling full circle back to the elephant in the freezer – that is, the lack of them (freezers, not elephants). Recall that i…

I'm shocked and saddened by the vile comments I've seen on here about the death of Prince Philip. Irrespective of your political views or of the monarchy...show some fucking respect! Respect to the loss of a husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather.

Disappointed that none of the TV news shows have jumped on the opportunity to refer the three families being able to meet over the festive period as a 'Christmas bauble'. 🤷🏻‍♂️
