My dad was a front line Doctor who had been in hospital for close to two weeks after testing positive for Covid. He left this earth this morning. After doing what he loved for many years. Death is painful. I’m numb. RIP Dr MH Mapela.

@Jonathan_Witt @EricBrownJHB asked what they are experts of? Do you know?

[Patricia Brown @Dormientes_Doc]

@docdeann @PACSA2019 @docdeann the patient story is aside. The real interest is around the preparation of dantrolene. This is how is comes out when you mix it with normal saline! Dantrolene + normal saline = Fanta orange and a waste of money

What’s happening here?

FRIEND: Are you doing ok?

HEALTHCARE WORKER: Yeah I'm ok

“One of the things that terrifies me now is, as this is spread in the west is, there’s this sense of invulnerability among millennials.”

Whilst this seems like an excellent plan. 8 sick lungs will be difficult to ventilate in a one size fits all. Two lungs are challenge enough...

@blackburnmike Makes the queue shorter apparently.

[Patricia Brown @Dormientes_Doc]

@docdeann @GasBugZa @GerrieCo89 Thanks!

[Patricia Brown @Dormientes_Doc]

@AndyDW_ One of two scenarios.
1. The date and time you had was not the date and time they had.
2. The perceived benefit:effort required ratio did not favour attenedence.
I would say 1 is more likely if no one came.
