This study the the UK actuaries came out earlier this week. One of the conclusions is that Australia's excess mortality over the three years of the pandemic is 1%. This was a little lower than the Australian working group is measuring (4%), so I had a look at why.

i'm told there are many australians who haven't seen how simple the proposed constitutional amendment is…

i certainly hadn't seen it categorised into four parts.

If you’re on the fence about whether or not physicians need a union, read this article. The degree to which emergency physicians are getting fucked over by private equity right now is staggering.

Everyone should watch this 2 minute clip from a Dr Fauci lecture where he talks about two of the most misunderstood concepts in Covid transmission:

📍59% of infections result from asymptomatic transmission

📍Aerosol transmission predominates.

Understanding this is critical.

Systematic review of 10 #esketamine RCTs for #depression finds that ~40% of adverse events are omitted from publications—nearly all of those events (94%) happened to participants in the esketamine (not placebo) arm.
Overall reporting quality 'poor'.
