An important change down under:

1/ Canada's 5th #MAID report came out last week. More information (82 pages!), less fanfare, likely due to people being better at interpreting observational data.
Here's a 🧵 with some key findings

Our latest in @JAMAInternalMed - Int'l comparison of underlying illness in #MAID recipients- 20 jurisdictions, up to 24 yrs. Relative rates of MAID remarkably similar across jurisdictions + over time.

“Reports that Track 2 MAID recipients are more marginalized than the average Ontarian are misleading because people who die without MAID, or people living with chronic illness show exactly the same degree of marginalization”.

Thanks to @mathisonej for hosting.
