Add a clear plastic drape to PPE - reduce exposure to aerosol and droplets while intubating COVID patients. Videolaryngoscopy and intubation under drape #COVID2019 #CoronavirusOutbreak @doctimcook @EMARIANOMD @ASA_Australia @ANZCA @AAGBI @VBeavis @Ron_George @traumagasdoc

@JeromeAdamsMD Jerome what are his chances of being appointed? And are you up for another term as Surgeon General??

My thoughts on RFK Jr: If he prioritizes prevention and wellness, particularly by improving our food supply, he has the potential to make a significant impact. However, if he spreads vaccine distrust and reduces uptake, any progress made on health initiatives will be overshadowed

@SheaSerrano Yuen Woo Ping is the OG - I hope you have all of his movies on VHS imdb.com/name/nm0950759/

i care about this so much

@GongGasGirl Depends so much on the anaesthetist and surgeon and the situation. We have all had instant bonding over a midnight disaster, and I’m sure we all know many we would never work with again! Think it requires a series of interactions where we see each other’s true colors!

During chit chat about life and the universe with a trainee this week, they asked me how long it takes for an anaesthetist to develop a high trust relationship with their surgeon. Never asked that before, but it’s so important. I have thoughts, but interested in yours….

@EMARIANOMD @stanfordanes @ASRA_Society @ESRA_Society @amit_pawa @jeffgadsden @KyleHarrisonMD @jodyleng @RKKimMD1 @ajrmacfarlane @nelkassabany Classic paper ! He came and taught us in New Zealand many years ago too… excellent teacher and a nice fella!

Many know how much I like the ultrasound-guided infraclavicular block by Nav Sandhu. He also taught me this long-axis in-plane technique for axillary/subclavian central venous cannulation with the same small curvilinear probe: journals.lww.com/anesthesia-ana….

@GongGasGirl It was good Tanya. Are you here? #jobson2024

@AuforGA Yum 😋

@avecgas You certainly don’t have to drink it! 😊 It’s sustainably packaged spring water from my district, HD 50, which is Johns Creek. A local brewery provided the cans, and the design is based on the city logo.

I almost hate to show you what our office fridge looks like for the last few weeks of session.

@HeartOTXHeartMD @Super70sSports Here is one that you might enjoy netflix.com/nz/title/81274…

When I’m having “one of those days”, scrolling this fella’s feed always makes me smile …or laugh like 1970’s John(ny) would have without an ounce of guilt!😂 Thank you, @Super70sSports !

@HeartOTXHeartMD So sorry for your loss Dr John. Praying for you and your family.

@SheaSerrano Can you get here by this evening?

my greatest hope is that they put DUNE in IMAX before the new one comes out so i can watch it there because i had to watch it originally on my TV and i liked it a lot on my TV sure but i need it biiiiiiiiiig

@SheaSerrano Like basketball you can steal possession or have it given to you if the opposing team lose it, kick it away or get penalized. Unlike bball you can tackle and turn ball over - it’s an awesome game . Take it from a New Zealander.

how does a change of possession happen in rugby — someone who knows rugby can you explain it to me — thanks

@miyazakitaguchi Fantastic year. She beat the 3 seniors ranked above her and gave the world no.3 a hard time. Hope she gets a good rest and can work on her strength and conditioning before coming back next year. Thanks for posting all those results.

15. Ended the year ranked 39th in the world 🫡

13. Runner up at the Korea Masters which was her first debut on the S300 🥈

@SheaSerrano why so petty?

god i love the nba so much

@GongGasGirl “Studies have also recommended the inclusion of mood assessment tools such as the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale due to a potential association between mood and cognition (25)” … hope he feels better soon T

@avecgas 🙏🏼

Cardiac twitter: My friend's dad had CABG 3/12 ago. Back at work but says he's not the same, grumpy, a bit flat. Is this usual? How long does it last? Any current papers?

@AuforGA Over-ordering is so Chinese

So excited for our pre-Thanksgiving Chinese hotpot dinner on Buford Highway that we maaaaay have over-ordered. 🫕 (At Good Harvest, Doraville GA)

@JeromeAdamsMD Because they choose an example that suits their beliefs - individual freedoms over public health and the protection of the vulnerable. Ask any NZ health professional, we are mostly very grateful and relieved - health.govt.nz/our-work/disea…

I always wonder: why do the people who bring up Sweden as a Covid exemplar never bring up New Zealand (who had some of the toughest Covid policies in the world, along with some of the best outcomes, and highest trust in government)? And why do they also fail to recognize both countries had extremely high vaccination rates and government funded social supports (both reached 80+ percent far faster than United States despite getting vaccines later)?🤷🏽‍♂️

@nzherald Oh please get this guy a hat

If David Seymour is trying to prove New Zealand’s economy is grinding to a halt and crime is rampant, Remuera is evidently not the best place to visit. #Echobox=1695150506-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/el…
