NEW: analysis of millions of books published over the centuries suggests western society is shifting away from a culture of progress, and towards one of caution, worry and risk-aversion.
I think this is one of the most important challenges facing us today.

On 17 December, Israeli forces took control of Al Awda hospital, after besieging it for 12 days. Males over 16 years old were taken out of the hospital, stripped, bound and interrogated – six MSF staff were among them...

We condemn this strike in the strongest terms, and call yet again for the respect and protection of medical facilities, staff and patients. We reiterate our call for an immediate ceasefire to prevent more deaths in Gaza.
We mourn the loss of our colleagues.

Dr Mahmoud Abu Nujaila.
Dr Ahmad Al Sahar.
Dr Ziad Al-Tatari.
We are devastated by the killing of these three doctors - including our Dr Abu Nujaila and Dr Al Sahar - following a strike on Al-Awda hospital in #Gaza today.

An MSF team of 15 international and national staff entered Gaza from Egypt via the Rafah Crossing point. They will aim to support medical and surgical capacity in the Strip, where the healthcare infrastructure has collapsed, and medics are utterly exhausted.

For some groups in particular, the numbers are eye-watering.
Specialty registrars — junior doctors about 5-10 years into their professional career — would be earning *£20,000* more per year today if pay had kept up with inflation.

The first is that international flows of staff are imbalanced.
Most staff recruited from overseas return to work in their origin countries (or leave for a third country), and a significant portion of UK-trained staff leave.
Outflows exceed inflows: it’s a leaky pipe.

NEW: we need to talk about NHS staff retention.
At a time when Britain’s healthcare system is acutely short of workers, *1 in 7* UK-trained doctors are practising overseas. No other developed country is like this, which immediately tells you there’s a problem.

🧵 NEW: Should junior doctors get a 35% pay rise??

Doctors have to be valued....professionally and financially. #payrestoration
A very large mandate - showing how much the trainee doctors feel in this matter.
As a Senior, I support their call.
🚨🚨 the vote is in🚨🚨
#juniordoctors have voted unanimously to strike.
98.06% yes vote.
For the second time in my training, we will do what is right, not what is easy and pursue industrial action
