Thanks @DamianFog@RCPEdinTrainees for an excellent refresher on #AKI/#CKD. Should we not be removing the social construct of race from estimations of GFR, though? Instead highlighting harms of this practice, and the evidence for its termination #PathToJusticeInKidneyCare
In this week's episode 'When the kidneys stop working' Dr Jonathan Bardgett interviews Dr Damian Fogarty on why Acute Kidney Injury and Chronic Kidney Disease is important & how to manage patients:

Thank you @POferries for getting my family to me today. No thanks to @LeShuttle - I'm really disappointed by the lack of reason and compassion demonstrated by your #EurotunnelLeShuttle staff. I know who we're going to be travelling with in future. Here's to a #Better22!
Putting out a New Year's wish to the universe to help get my family home from France. @LeShuttle staff not letting my wife/kids + dog on as she (dog!) had her rabies vacc @ 11w4d instead of 12, though we've got a letter from breeder + vet that the d.o.b. was wrong - it was 12w 🙁
@LeShuttle I don't play this card often, but I work for #NHS and spent Xmas+Boxing looking after the sick (inc. #COVID). All I wanted was to celebrate #HappyNewYear with my wife and kids (+dogs). Can you please help?
Working on the #NHS frontline it's clear (if it wasn't before!) how much we owe to non-UK medical graduates. Important @gmcuk work, supporting Drs new to working in the UK. It can feel scary and lonely right now, but there people around to help - welcome and thank you 💙

I got my COVID vaccine for free from the NHS. I was delighted to donate to this to pay it forward.
Covid, like everything else has exaggerated global inequalities.
We love hearing from our customers, so thank you to Dr Achyut Valluri for sharing such great feedback and for making our Monday that extra bit more awesome! @avalluri164
The pain of loneliness and isolation is very real. It hurts - it really hurts. Compassion needed more than ever right now. Sending very warm wishes to anyone who is struggling right now
@brigidrussell51@charlie_psych Sorry I've not kept in touch much, Brigid. Taking time to listen to others' challenges has been the rope I needed to pull me out a wallowing pit I'd found myself in earlier this year: reminding me of purpose, strengthening connection, and promoting action when needed
I don't know who wants to hear this, but being single during this pandemic has been downright dreadful.
I'm not taking away from the seriousness of the pandemic. Please take it seriously, but by God has it been hard when you simply don't have anyone to share time with.
Torn between feelings of wanting to promote Chris' really helpful, insightful series, and not coming off as self-promoting (you'll see - it was a surprise to me). On balance, check it out ... 🙂
