"The #COVID19 vaccine rollout has clearly demonstrated the huge gaps in international solidarity – 75% of all vaccine doses globally have been administered in just 10 countries." - Dr @MoetiTshidi

💜 Ill health couldn’t stop me from at least saying a big virtual hello to the gorgeous @nycgb Training Choir this evening. Had a sneak peek of their private recorded concert, and I’m in tears with how beautiful and moving it all sounds @RuthFEvans @gregbeardsell @doricoofficial – at Richmond, London

All illnesses have a psychological component - and if psychological stress is worse, the physical effects of the illness will be more apparent/severe. The mind-body link is a legitimate, demonstrable phenomenon says @BlakeleyKate. #DFTBAdolescents

Nervous about opening a social history with a young person? "I'm going to ask you these questions, I'm not going to judge your responses, but I'm asking because I'm here to help you and I'm here to protect you" works for @alwaddington #DFTBAdolescents

I love this tool. There is so much more to a young person than the reason they are presenting, and so much value in taking time to understand the whole to shape care and build respect. @CYPStNN @StNurseProject
Use HEADSS as a cognitive aid, designed to humanize a young person & turn them into a whole person before our very eyes - @henrygoldstein 🌟Top tip - “mobile phone usage” is the secret sauce🌟 @DFTBubbles #DFTBAdolescents

The chapter on dealing with mass casualty in the Oxford Handbook of Medical Specialties explicitly states that as the first person on scene, the priority is triage. It's how you can save the maximum number of lives. This is a horrible headline for someone doing their level best.
This is an exceedingly harsh headline. This chap was one of the first paramedics on scene and did exactly as he was meant to in terms of triaging and communicating. “Paramedic follows major incident guidelines effectively” would seem fairer
