There are more Consultants than GPs in the country, not to mind NCHDs.
We need 2,500 more GPs to keep pace with population, slainte care, change in work practices, new medical cards etc.
That's 60% more GPs. By tomorrow.
GP gets 5% of Health budget.

BMJ's editor Dr. Peter Doshi raises alarming questions About Safety Concerns

“Pfizer and Moderna trial data are both showing a clear signal of increased risk of serious adverse events among the vaccinated”

@niamh_dr @HSELive @CUH_Cork Funny how GPs have to provide a 24/7, 365 commitment ( and pay for the privilege!).
Maybe our Dental colleagues are right?
Office hours only.

For replay DB stated they’d wear🇱🇻 …
CD had to buy a 2nd jersey (needed to display sponsorship) wore 🟡- DB wore 🔵 again.

@JeromeQuinn Not surprised to hear- cousin Sean Gillan “watching game in glenariffe with a carlsberg”…… I’m in Tipperary having a cup of tea and watching game.
Great game- fast, honest, physical and top quality!
Hoping Ruairí ogs can keep the intensity up ! 🇱🇻🇱🇻

Antenatal care a loss leader.
Routine visit pays €27 a visit.
Still under FEMPI.
£18 IN 1998 should be at least €37 allowing for inflation.
Uneconomical.

After consulting with my editor, and in response to numerous requests from reporters in different countries, we’ve decided to unlock last Tuesday’s article.

Even if we lose paid subscribers, this is in the public interest and important for public health. https://t.co/Uu0IqYUeyY

@NHSBartsHealth @OrthopodReg Clinical staff wouldn’t have the TIME due to workload, ⬇️numbers to enjoy- the “perks” that admin staff get- as illustrated in video.
Reminds me when new Antrim H opened in 1993.
Losers- patients, relatives, medics-nurses.
Winners- bureaucrats and legal industry/ the sue culture.

Evidence points to SARS-CoV-2 being the result of a lab leak, and that Dr. Anthony Fauci, Harvard researchers, China, the mainstream media, WHO + tech companies all worked together to cover it up.

@ShaneCorr3 @sinnfeinireland @ShaneCorr3 I’ve read “a little” Russian history..”
Russia v Ukraine and NATO/USA- not as black-white: ⚫️⚪️as western media has led us to believe.
Eg:Bush withdrawal from arms treaty signed by Regan (and the timing)
Exon deal for oil/gas etc….
Even reds v whites 🔴⚪️1917-22.

Sitting at a computer does two things:

1. Tightens your chest muscles
2. Weakens your back muscles

There’s loads you can do, but I appreciate you’re probably at an office – so let’s keep it simple.

[Kieran Drew @ItsKieranDrew]

Your head weighs as much as a bowling ball.

The reason your neck hurts is because it can’t keep up. We spend our lives looking down at screens.

Everything should be at eye level.

So, these two are important…

@McGlackenByrne If a GP practice is not at capacity currently:
Either nobody prepared to attend them…
Or
Maybe they’re a “training” practice and have plenty of spare capacity (as Reg Rx patients)
Or both…
Re latter- all training practices need a fallow year-
Get out of ivory tower.

@mcbridejuliel I won’t believe the radio in his car.

He wouldn’t puck the ball past the 21 yd line.

If there was work in bed; he’d sleep on the floor.

As sick as a small hospital.

A must read for all politicians
42% deficit in GP numbers in Ireland
25% GPs aged over 60
Things can improve with proper planning.
Today's budget giveaway will simply further overload a service that is bursting.
Time to talk to GPs

@IMO_IRL One has to wonder if this government are deliberately choosing to remain deaf to the GP manpower crisis
80% GP practices closed to new patients
DVC frontloads patient demand onto GPs because its the only free servic Its also the cheapest giveaway for the government
