Brilliant Women in Cardiology celebration yesterday with a truly phenomenal talk from Dr Sadia Quyam. Thank you to Medtronic for their generous support and to all our allies.

⁦@ProtecxM⁩ I note your QVEST ‘specifically designed for females’ has a demeaning, insulting and unacceptable name ‘Princess Vest’ - WIC have fought & continuously do so to fight against sickening belittling gender stereotyping ⁦@global_wic⁩ ⁦@BCSWIC⁩

@sado_dan @KingsCollegeNHS Congratulations!! Hope all is well otherwise with you and the rest of the KCH Cardiology team ❤️

Schrodinger's junior doctor: simultaneously too important to strike, but not important enough to pay them properly

Had to fork out $188 for airport hotel accommodation while @qatarairways ‘s compensation is a 30QAR ($8.24) food voucher per person. Way to go guys 👍🏻 #profitsfirst #customerssecond

15h layover to come back to Manchester from Dar Es Salaam, complimentary accommodation not in place “due to COVID19”. Several people with a very nasty cough on our flight and am 23 weeks pregnant. Way of getting your priorities straight @qatarairways #customerservice

Me, trying to do a ward round of the patient in the side room so I don’t have to put on the PPE.

Hey @transportgovuk - getting confused with current travel policy (return to the UK from BE via FR). Driving in own vehicle transiting through FR (not exiting from vehicle) via Eurotunnel > quarantine. Eurostar with transit through FR > no Q. Due to work as a Dr next day. Advice?

@NMBS tickets niet toegekomen na aankoop (x2) via mobile app, en kan niemand bereiken op telefoonnr klantendienst. Onderweg naar luchthaven Zaventem dus moet ticket tonen om door poortjes te raken. Help aub

[Barbara Cassimon @BCassimon]

@mevparekh Suffice to say you’ve won Twitter for the day

[Barbara Cassimon @BCassimon]

@DrBenLovell @uclh Great concept if done well, and could be pulled open to other modes of discrimination (eg sexism, ageism, religion, etc). Would be keen to hear how it went! Kudos to @uclh 💪🏻

[Barbara Cassimon @BCassimon]

@Aaisha_Saqib @bogzee4 @SamuelMartin2 Hahaha this made me laugh out loud. Painfully accurate!
