Now more than ever we need to trust those who know best. #Surgeons know best when to operate and when not. Period. #COVID19 #COVID19Ireland

An appendectomy is a low risk/high benefit procedure. Patients may resolve this condition with antibiotics but with a 25% failure rate. Governments and the media need to “back off” the criticism of #surgeons who are looking for the best way to treat their patients.

Great webinar with @plasticstrainee @ICOPLASTsurgery on “Plastic Surgery During Covid-19”. Interesting to hear the Italian experience and how European countries have restructured their trauma and reconstructive services @mattdgardiner @EbbaLindqvist @Surgery_Trials @IAPSurgeons

Our #COVIDWATCH graphs for 22/3 thanks to @mikey0callaghan + @UL Many tests and test results still outstanding so too early to tell if we have #FlattenTheCuve. On Mother's Day (Big shout out to all Mum's in the frontline!) and every day #SocialDistancing will save lives

We can’t stop the virus, but together, we can slow it down. We must stay apart in every social setting, whether standing, sitting or shopping. #ItsInOurHands #COVID19 #SocialDistancing

To help free-up #plasticsurgeons’ time to care for COVID-19 patients, we’re asking everyone to refrain from risky activities– including extra caution around hot substances, when using knives, & refraining from unnecessary DIY ➡️bapras.org.uk/media-governme… #SafetySavesLives @MrPKalu
