@OnswitchLtd @agavet Altruism = (an enduring tendency) to help others even at a risk or cost to oneself.. Society expects altruism in veterinarians (and other health and helping vocations). Veterinarians expect it of themselves (being members of society). @OnswitchLtd @agavet #veterinarian #ethics

@vedihealth Fabulous to meet you at #AVA2023. This universal health record platform linked to our patients microchip. A simple and elegant innovation that will add value for both the vet and client for best practice patient care.. Thanks for bringing this to us, Dr Steve

The team are perched up at Booth 99, showing off Vedi’s Universal Health Record platform and demonstrating how connecting to Vedi benefits the vet practice team, the patient, and the entire veterinary health ecosystem.      But that's not all…

@FromPhDtoLife Getting diagnosed with ADHD!

What's helping you stay focused and motivated during your PhD journey? Or, what did, if you're already finished?

@FrontVetScience The altruism research! Vets are quite diverse in their balance of other- and self-interest. With positive and neg implications. @Onswitch @EmmaDavisVet @DrQuain @wenoody

@KarenHeathAlle2 @choo_ek Laughing with you here. I took our dogs (heart) meds one morning when downing my calcium and B vitamins while packing kids lunches. Heart was going boom boom an hour later. 💓 At least I wasn’t going woof woof🐕‍🦺🐾

@choo_ek The worst part is that when I felt terrible and started to apologize profusely to my little boy he gave me a big hug and said, “Believe me Mom, I have my moments too, I must get those from you!” 😂

I plain forgot to take one of my kids to school today. In case you are feeling like a hot mess of a parent.

@WhellumAnthony @saintslugger @marshall_steven SA’s low rate is BECAUSE SA folk use PPE early, Has a smaller and more spread population, drier climate, health officials (w govt support) instigate measures early, and our vulnerable groups are not as large as VIC and NSW. Delta is virulent compared to alpha!

@AdeleFeakes @saintslugger @marshall_steven Garbage Adele,you have been brainwashed. Maybe you should stay home if you are so worried. 4 deaths since March 2020,hope you don't drive a car. Explain NSW and Victoria then? 🙄

On Nov 23 we are safely opening our borders so that more people can reunite with loved ones. Together we have worked incredibly hard to remain safe & strong. In 4 weeks we will be 80% fully vaccinated & well on our way to reaching 90% when further restrictions are eased.

@WhellumAnthony @saintslugger @marshall_steven Indeed we in SA have enjoyed zero spread from several delta challenges (e.g. infected truck drivers) due to their and locals use of PPE.

@AdeleFeakes @saintslugger @marshall_steven No one is infected in SA,haven't been for months. Masks have worked a treat in Victoria and NSW.

@saintslugger @marshall_steven Masks reduce the ‘load’ of virus coughed and sneezed at others by those who are infected (vaccinated or unvaccinated, clinical or not, in the first few days). Highly vacc’d communities without masks (eg UK) are NOT doing well in terms of hospitalisations🦠🤧 🤒 cf those who do.😷

@marshall_steven Why we wearing masks still??

@timcarabott @marshall_steven Do you not get it @timcarabott? Masks will be even more necessary after November 23rd. Just look at countries with low mask rates - their cases are soaring even with high vaccination rates. Maybe have a break from masks in SA til nov 23rd THEN back on after we open up.

@marshall_steven Please please please ditch the mask rule!!

Tune in for an important #COVID19 update for #SouthAustralia at 1.15pm. Link: m.facebook.com/StevenMarshall…

@maire19 @chaser With the essential guidance of Saint Nicola

@chaser Or even il Duce Marshall from SA where delta went to zero in days

Dictator Dan launches ground invasion of NSW to bring Covid cases under control

@DrCEWylie Agree an absolutely sad day and so frustrating. With respect, may we rephrase this as NSW (state government’s) COVID debacle i.e. not locking down hard and fast at the start, even when warned of the Delta strain known risks e.g. by AMA and epidemiologists.

@davidccain_ @vanOnselenP Ditto for our women’s water polo team - good game , first round, vs Canada

Any Aust medal chances today worth watching out for?

@johncutlefish Opportunity evaluation document best describes this type of document for me - ie a combination of ‘job(s) to be done’ and match to firm or teams capabilities/strengths. But not going as far as full value proposition design

@r_swanson1 @dedmon_walking @jess_froe @AcademicChatter Add - eye mist or eye drops and a green or orange blanket to drape over your huge (mobile) whiteboard to convert it into a green screen like background !

@r_swanson1 @dedmon_walking @jess_froe @AcademicChatter Huge White board, shelves for the papers you print, Wobble board, 3/4 stool, Physio inflatable cushions for chair and stool, faithful loving dogs w you all day 🐕‍🦺🐾 and an egg timer set every 20-30mins to get u up or down.

@CForestier_PhD @quantitudepod @starzyklab Then next two days of awake time learning Bayesian SEM 🤦‍♀️🛣

@quantitudepod @starzyklab And also when on a SEM, the theory proposes that all IVs predict all your DVs.

@CForestier_PhD @quantitudepod @starzyklab Dreams get complicated with cross loadings and all covariates interacting with explanatory LVs to predict my DV🍝🙃💭

@tevalegan @Julaberry @della79 Me too. Regularly received vegemite and lettuce , but not good memories at all! Never crispy and no protein to make it worth eating...now cheese and lettuce - yum and great memories.

@Julaberry @della79 Yes! Vegemite and lettuce. I'm so pleased to hear there are others out there 😁
