What the heck is this?! 🚩 🚩 A £4.7 million, 6 year research project called “Medicine without doctors” Imagine: Dentistry without dentists Pharmacy without pharmacists Nursing without nurses Medicine without doctors is NOT medicine! ENOUGH with this madness!
Dr Jinnie Shin 🦀@jinnieshinnie

I've said before that doctors are being phased out. Some probably thought I was exaggerating... but why is there a 6 year, multi-million pound research project called "Medicine Without Doctors"??!? 'What happens when medical expertise is actively displaced to other medical positions'

“Why don’t they let me run the last mile of a marathon and let me call myself a marathon runner?” Do the work you lazy slob! GEM is open to you, if you want to do FRCEM, do the other 10-12 years of exams that come before it!

Staggering numbers by the Lancet. Vaccinations have: - Averted 154 million deaths - For every death averted, 66 years of full health were gained on average = 10.2 billion years total - Accounted for 40% of the observed decline in global infant mortality

Bank Holidays means a day off for most, but not for thousands of NHS staff keeping services running. Resident doctors, often starting work with over £100k debt, are the lowest paid workers in hospitals today. RT to remind @wesstreeting every NHS worker deserves fair pay.

Only the British public would begrudge doctors who operate on them overnight, put them to sleep during said operations, look after them on ICU, and run the medical take overnight being paid a similar amount to an Aldi area manager. 🦀🪣

@traineENT Good, so long as we’re clear most are on more than £76k. Greed.

RFK's Children's Health Defense is making money selling a child's onesie with the phrases "No Vax, No Problem" and "Unvaxxed, Unafraid" to parents for $26. Now that RFK is "pro-vaccine", will he ask his organization to stop selling these vehemently anti-vaccine products?

To “punish” Colombia, Trump is about to make every American pay even more for coffee. Remember: *WE* pay the tariffs, not Colombia. Trump is all about making inflation WORSE for working class Americans, not better. He’s lining the pockets of himself and the billionaire class.
Yashar Ali 🐘@yashar

NEWS After President Petro of Colombia denied entry of two US repatriation flights of Colombian migrants, President Trump has announced these retaliatory measures. Petro said he wouldn’t allow the flights in until Trump establishes a protocol for the dignified treatment of migrants.

@johnsweeneyroar Just finished podcast. Lots I didn’t know about case. Sewage issues, twice weekly ward rounds, flawef stats in particular! Any reason for not covering the insulin evidence and alleged Facebook stalking of parents though? Those were the only 2 pieces of evidence I found compelling

I’m still thinking about this. Paramedic practitioner tells @mrjamesob: 🔸It doesn’t matter that he hasn’t studied medicine 🔸He’s better than doctors because he looks up from his screen 🔸He’s essentially done medicine vocationally as he was questioned ‘for weeks’ ☠️ ☠️ ☠️
