Women with breast cancer who use alternative medicine instead of conventional therapy have survival rates no better than getting NO treatment at all. But women who did BOTH also did worse. A thread on a sobering new study. 🧵 1/11

So - do you have to be white to be British? We have asked in the past.... answer is NO. Also clear that overt racists are a very small part of British society

Whole body CT scans after trauma detail the full injury load & improve coordination of on-going management. Secondarily, they inform underlying health status (coronaries, CKD, sarcopenia) and are an unscheduled health screen. MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW UP INCIDENTAL FINDINGS

I’m so utterly sad that doctors have to strike and I’m worried for how we will cope this week but I’m 100% in support of the strikes and the need for them. I’m also indescribably angry at our incompetent government for letting it get to this.🧵

Vehemently agree. One of the key values I A) TRY and live by and B) teach my own kids. Without it, integrity is gone and improvement impossible. Have zero respect for people who don’t
One of the most important things I learned at school was that if you do something wrong and get found out, you own up. You never, ever, blame someone else. And a good leader takes responsibility not only for their own mistakes but those of their team.
