Only reasons for admission with a lower respiratory tract infection: i) O2 requirement ii) Evidence of insufficient hydration as assessed by a senior *failing a fluid trial is not synonymous with dehydration* iii) Social care concerns CXR & Antibiotic modality are irrelevant

Doctors don’t get subsidised food; they don’t get free parking; they don’t get free energy or free travel Tory MPs get the lot- free parking; free travel; free energy; subsidised food & £2,400 pay rises. Support doctors please. We need them. They are striking to save the NHS.

One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. - Carl Sagan
