UPDATE
The Israeli court approved the extension of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s detention, without charges.
The request for his immediate release was denied, despite the unlawful nature of his detention while carrying out his medical duties.
He is held in Negev Prison in harsh conditions, without access to medication or medical care, as his health continues to deteriorate.
We demand the immediate release of Dr. Abu Safiya along with 13 other detained doctors, as well as all medical personnel currently held in Israel. We call on the international community to intervene and put an end to this abuse.

Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil was found dead after hours of searching under rubble. She was killed in an Israeli strike, after the Israeli army fired at ambulances trying to reach her, delaying her rescue.
She is the fourth journalist killed by Israel while in the field since 2 March.
She was a professional, kind and dedicated journalist, and always a pleasure to run into in the field.

@mccarthymt7 Difficult to disagree with much of that, Michael, but the NTPF is a sticking plaster applied intermittently to bind the gaping wounds caused by the failure to invest in buildings and staff. It also diverts considerable income from the public sector to private hospitals
English
The NTPF is a good idea for edge cases where the demand and public services temporarily exceeds capacity.
To the best of my understanding, NTPF insourcing-funded services were largely supplied by HSE/public healthcare staff, who had already completed their contracted weeks work, and agreed to work overtime, usually out of hours, to catch up on existing waiting lists. There was a whole media furore about this not that long ago.
It is like opening services on bank holidays, funded by overtime.
For a seven day public healthcare service, investment in 7 day staffing is essential. Without this, i.e. spreading existing staff over 7 days, just makes public hospitals less competitive in recruitment, without changing "productivity".
I agree the NTPF is not a good or efficient strategy to fund core services.
I have not seen any credible plan to resource core capacity in public hospitals in accordance with demand, so lets keep the NTPF.
It is better than nothing.

Israeli Army Radio reports that Israeli occupation forces have established a "security belt" in southern Lebanon that includes 55 villages whose residents are not allowed to return.
This is ethnic cleansing. It is a war crime.
English
@mccarthymt7 Not so sure about some of that analysis, Michael. Is this the Dan O’B article you cited previously?
English
True.
There are two sequential failure modes:
First, there are not enough funded posts to deliver the required/expected capacity.
Second, there are no applicants for those critical posts.

Forza Europeans!
Only 200,000 signatures needed to push EU institutions to suspend the indecent partnership agreement with Apartheid Israel. Bcs it is not OK to make business with a State that commits intl crimes on a daily basis.
Power to the People.

If someone asked me to extract an individual's healthcare record from a HSE admission, I probably could not do it.
The healthcare record is distributed between at least 10 different electronic and/or paper-based systems, that do not talk to each other.
It is frustrating to work with.
It takes many hours to prepare for a clinic, and many hours to action clinic decisions.
Europe solved these problems decades ago. @stjamesdublin solved this problem in recent memory.
The @roinnslainte demands efficiency, with 20th century tools.
A modern EHR is fundamental to efficient public healthcare delivery.

I asked for a copy of my medical records relating to one HSE hospital for a stay over a number of consecutive weeks in the summer of last year, yesterday, more than a week after submitting, the hospital informs me that I should 'expect' a copy of my file no later than 26th June 2026. The absurd length of time to wait (¼ of a year) for this information to one side, the reason for requesting is that neither my GP nor Oncology team, within the HSE but in a different region, cannot access my records... The hospital in question, itself, cannot readily access the records from ICU and Radiology departments from within the same hospital. This is the state of the HSE - an utter shambles. I pity the staff having to work within this level of dysfunctional management.

RTE news earlier called Israel's plan to occupy southern Lebanon 'controversial' - its not an edgy play put on by a local group in a community theatre, its (more) illegal occupation and annexation of land belonging to another sovereign nation. Call it what it is @rtenews

@mccarthymt7 “Also what has fallen out of fashion: timely access to treatment and access to standard-of-care treatment.” How true, Michael, but let’s pretend otherwise @HSELive.
Let’s not invest in infrastructure. Let’s send our ill patients abroad for basic treatments

Once upon a time, more than 10 years ago, it used to be relatively straightforward to get a discretionary time-limited medical card with a cancer diagnosis.
The state clamped down on this practice in 2013.
Today discretionary medical cards and cancer require a short prognosis. It requires a certain type of letter.
Also what has fallen out of fashion: timely access to treatment and access to standard-of-care treatment.
What hasn’t fallen out of fashion: it is a dark time in anyone’s life.
I suppose after all there are other more pressing priorities.
Did this guy not get the memo? Could somebody send him the press release?
Independent Ireland@independent_ire
The state should ensure that every cancer patient automatically receives a medical card for the duration of their illness. @MichaelC_IND_TD

It is so difficult to understand why Trump launched his Iran operation - an op so clearly damaging to US national interests, the global economy, Ukraine and the US’ closest allies in Europe and the Gulf.
Then there is this….
Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth)@adamscochran
5 minutes before Trump’s announcement: * $1.5B notional worth of S&P500 (ES) futures are bought in a single clip. * $192M notional of oil futures (CL) sold. More than 4x-6x any other trade size during the market close. Insiders profited from his lies in broad daylight!

@vinniemcdermott Try being a pathologist. We often receive no clinical information with specimens

History and physical are still fundamentals of diagnosis. Radiologists need history as much as clinicians.
Howard Luks MD@hjluks
The irony I find myself returning to is that MRI technology has not made us better diagnosticians. It has, in many cases, made us worse ones, because the image is so concrete and the language of the report so authoritative that it takes deliberate effort to resist anchoring to it. When the MRI arrives before the history is fully taken, the finding shapes what questions get asked and which ones don't. Bias abounds throughout the encounter. The encounter organizes itself around what the scanner found rather than what the patient experienced, and that is very difficult to undo once it has happened. Don't look at the scans first... the basics matter. Take a history... confirm it with an exam, then see if the MRI findings make sense in the same context.

Netanyahu led Trump into this horrific & unpopular war. Now he doesn’t know how to get out.
Cost so far:
• 1,200+ Iranian civilians killed
• 13 U.S. troops killed
• 3.2M Iranians displaced
• 773 killed in Lebanon
• 10,000+ Iranians injured
• $16.5B spent in 12 days

Were the medical personnel the target? That's important context to consider. Also, the fact that the event happened does not mean this is not propaganda. This is clearly meant to paint a picture of Israel and US being evil, without any clear objective analysis of the situation. That is the very definition of propaganda.
