Here is my opinion piece on the lifting of the lockdown restrictions and should we be implementing face covers or masks to avoid a sharp second wave of infected cases? Covid-19, Masks and the precautionary principle. #Gibraltar

An agreement for the future relationship between the EU and the UK in relation to Gibraltar is now a reality. It is a historic agreement.

BREAKING: President Trump is proposing that every U.S. citizen born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028, receive a one-time $1,000 federal contribution into a tax-deferred investment account—controlled by their guardians—that tracks the stock market and can be used in adulthood for education, a home, or a small business.

@reb_calderon To busy to reply further, but no offence, just speaking up when I feel comments towards another human are nitpicky / bullying / unfair/ etc. This fits that category somewhere. Let the man breathe, take up another hobby?

@MDLopezMD I was offended by the post so said something. What's wrong with that? Yet you are offended by me being offended. **rubs chin**

Not a good look when you commemorate #VEDay80 by showing off. Europe didn't choose to be invaded! #Gibraltar by its size, position and removal of nearly all civilians was extremely lucky.

@MDLopezMD Not a stretch. The first sentence says it all. Should have just posted about his family member and left out the silly hubris about #Gibraltar being 'FREE'.

@Calderon76J Im no lawyer, but i suspect it was/needs to be court ordered. In UK Adult children can apply for maintenance to continue. Some 18yo might be cut off. So means testing their parents in my op. Doesn't make sense. Discretionary grant applications make sense to me..

@MDLopezMD Excuse me? It's the parents who would have to pay if not given the grants! Although adults at 18 they are still in futher education & not working (no income)! So with your logic then I should not be paying child maintenance to my 21 year old who is at Uni, yet the law say so.

Why would you means test the parents of Adults? When they leave to uni they are all Adults, 18. The parents of these adults are not apply for the scholarship, the adult students are. I've never thought we would be pushing for the parents of Adults to be means tested. 🧐😵‍💫 Would be like means testing my parents for my housing application.

It's clear that the separation made in Medicine doesn't fit us all. Who's connecting the Mind-body symptoms we frequently encounter? One more reason why in this last year I've specialised in Lifestyle Medicine; the more holistic, patient centred approach to healing that Mind-body connection. theguardian.com/society/2025/j…

@jochaguy I'm sorry to hear that. Gib isn't as safe as it once was. I'd get airtags or GPS on your valued possessions.

BREAKING: PA jobs become absolutely redundant. They’ve been sold a lie.
Dr Haseena Wazir@DrHWazir

So it seems that the @RCPhysicians PA scope of practice document has been leaked to the @Telegraph tonight. Some key take home points: ‘In emergency departments, PAs will no longer be able to diagnose or discharge patients’. ‘PAs must never conduct hospital appointments without a senior, supervising doctor in the clinic’. ‘PAs must never fill in for doctors, prescribe medication, or request x-rays’. A step forward for patient safety by the RCP, which is everyone’s main priority. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/12/1…

Great news for Patient Safety imo. Might need to rethink scope of practice for our own PAs in Gib with the presumed guidelines..?

Yes. In the same way you learn that when you sneeze you won't die by the time you're an adult you kinda figure that out.. as a GP we also give medical education and we can also signpost what is not appropriate for the GP either. You can do that at triage/reception. And definitely do that at every clinical interaction.

@ishsulin Is it their job to work out if they’ve had an accident or an emergency? 🤔

if you tell patients in A&E that their attendance was obviously not for A&E and they’re “taking up resources” you have no brain, unless you decided that from the start without a history, examination, or tests it isn’t the patient’s job to work out what’s “serious” or not x
