What can we learn from the death of the #Queen?
The world has watched her live through the process of #OrdinaryDying, and yet dying went unspoken, un-named.
Let's notice what nobody mentioned: we all saw the Queen going through the stages of ordinary dying.
A 🧵...
1/
GPs - Facts or fiction 🧵
They are not seeing patients F2F
Why are waiting rooms are empty
They are not working
AEs are full because GPs aren’t seeing patients
They shut their doors during the pandemic
They are all part-time
They are paid too much
They no longer care

my doctors just texted to ask me not to contact them for minor illnesses anymore as too many staff are sick with covid and idk you guys, I'm starting to think that simply declaring the pandemic over and discontinuing basically any precautions may not be working out perfectly
Started my week finding out I got offered my dream placement for 22/23 as an honorary assistant psychologist in the specialty I wanted. Finishing the week tucked up in bed Covid positive. You win some, you lose some 🥲.
Boris Johnson just essentially admitted the NHS is going to be battered in the coming weeks but his view is we "just need to get through it".
But not everyone will make it, some will die either from Covid or other mistakes and NHS staff will be broken, some permanently so.
Well written piece: Mental health conditions should not be exclusion for medical training.
We need to address the stigma & discrimination within the profession - show clearly what the profession stands for.
Lived experience matters & helps @bmj_latest
