@Hemida_MD @SpringerNature Apparently a common theme in some BMC Journals BMC neurology made me wait more than 9 months for the 5th reviewer!

I’m starting to think our manuscript at BMC Cardiovascular Journal didn’t go out for peer review. It went on a world tour. 😆 The editor didn’t just invite reviewers, they basically launched an open call to the entire cardiovascular community 😄

My ER shift yesterday: a 19 year old whose house collapsed on here after Israel’s Wed attacks on residential building presenting with delayed brain bleed, crying from pain and deep loss: her brother and nieces were killed and did not make it out from the rubble.

Today, a strike just 100 meters from Rafik Hariri University Hospital, Lebanon's largest public medical facility, caused major damage to a nearby residential area. It killed 4 people and injured 39. The hospital sustained no damage. Between 28 and 31 March, @WHO verified 11 attacks affecting Lebanese health care facilities. This is an average of 2 attacks every day, with 5 occurring on 28 March alone, impacting facilities in Kfar Tibnit, Ghandouriyeh, Zawtar Al Gharbiyeh, Kfar Dajal, and Jazzine and resulting in 9 deaths and 5 injuries. On 29 March, attacks impacting health facilities in Bint Jbeil and Chakra caused 1 death with no injuries. On 30 March, a strike impacting the Rihab hospital in Beirut’s southern suburbs injured 4 people, while the next day, 2 facilities in Kafra and Bint Jbeil were damaged, causing 1 death and 3 injuries. Since 28 February, WHO has verified 92 attacks on health facilities, medical vehicles, personnel, and warehouses, that resulted in 53 deaths and injured 137 people. These acts cannot become the new norm. The world must reaffirm, unequivocally, that the protection of health care is not optional, but a universal obligation and a measure of our collective humanity. As Israel expands its military operations, I call on all parties to uphold their responsibility under international humanitarian law and ensure health facilities, health workers and patients are proactively protected. Healthcare is #NotATarget.

@jadahdab1 Congratulations Well deserved

This is quite literally the proudest and most exciting moment of my life. If someone had told me two years ago, in the midst of all the uncertainty, that this would be the outcome, I wouldn’t have believed it, even in my wildest dreams. So excited to meet everyone!
