A single 25-mg dose of psilocybin was more effective than a 1-mg dose at alleviating treatment-resistant depression over a period of 3 weeks. The effect was attenuated at 12 weeks. nej.md/3WcfLFp

Let’s be clear… that’s 53 admitted patients at 8am on a Monday in an ED… which has a 65 bed capacity… how are we supposed to be emergency physicians and nurses in these conditions? #ifnotusthenwho #belikeus

“At the height of the surge, we’re looking at something like 4000 (active) cases here in South Australia. That is of course a number that would completely overwhelm any health system, so we need to get on and we need to plan for how the health system is going to manage that.”

If you think the restrictions or getting vaccinated is hard, imagine being a patient or a HCW turning up to hospital and seeing this. This is what we are facing in parts of Melbourne at present. #COVID19Vic
