What were you thinking when you funded this piece, @bmj_latest? We will be writing to you in due course, but we need to call this out now. This 'investigation' reflects current prejudices and alarmism about trans people, treating their treatment and survival as a mere debate.
Don’t forget our event tomorrow evening with Dr Rebecca Trenear focusing on the care of transgender children and young people 🏳️⚧️. We hope to see you there!
Join us on 1/3 at 7pm for our first ever paediatric-themed event! Dr Trenear will be discussing the holistic care of transgender children/young people, the definitions of trans and how we as current/future healthcare professionals can best support our young transgender patients.
