Off service post call musings: Medicine (healthcare, even) is way too tribalistic; everyone is doing their best in a system at its breaking point; try to be kind to each other and remember we’re all in this together, trying to help our patients.

Does anyone else have a moment of sheer panic each time the rapid test buffer moves up the cartridge, not sure if that first line is going to stay or keep moving up?
