@JPLoubser Hi Jacques, we met at Perth ACEM conf 2018. I’m on a Health Informatics sabbatical but cannot travel. Can we swap ideas?

[Mark McGowan @MarkMcGowanMP]

Thank you WA. We have now achieved something remarkable.
Without the virus in the community, or any restrictions in place, 90 per cent of eligible Western Australians have now received their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.

West Aussies under 30 are showing how it's done: more than 73,000 of them booked their vaccination in through our State clinics in just 24 hours of becoming eligible.

What an absolute ripper effort - join them at https://t.co/765Cl5aS5e

Future focus: "Perhaps we will have an EMR that people are happy with." A statement at #HobartMethod Day2 that the audience met with laughter.

@andrewjtagg I’m going to rewatch your presentation twice, then show it to all my colleagues. Brilliant. Thank you. #ACEM19

“What’s life like at home?
Who lives with you?
What do you argue about?
Do you feel safe at home?”
Try these opening questions rather than “tell me about your mum and dad” because we know that families today come in all shapes and sizes. @andrewjtagg at #ACEM19

The headline says this essay is about hospital software, but this piece is actually more about the doctors, like @ESilvermanMD (MF 18), who endure its abuse. https://t.co/B1kpojajye

Wow! Superb intro to #acem18 led by @Eleytherius - the history of the world from the birth of our planet to the edge of emergency medicine in Perth. Bravo!

Regarding evolving illness (?viral -> bacterial): Thanks Ian Everitt for telling me: “you’re looking for a piece of hay, that turns into a needle later on” #DFTB18

@mezzyb17 @paediatric_KT can we just call everything “wheezy bronchitis” in the under 5’s? And a sneaky dose of pred for all! #DFTB18

@DocinSocks David Coghill why do we prescribe for only 1 in 3 kids with ADHD in Australia? #DFTB18

[colin parker @empemorg]

@gracie_leo thanks Margie Danchin I worry we have lost TRUST for healthcare professionals. Any shortcuts you have found useful? #DFTB18
