Will the junior doctor pay offer be the end of the MRCP PACES?

This was the hottest topic of discussion amongst the consultants over the weekend.

I think it very likely. Let me explain why.

@rwc90 Unhappy to see this contraption has made it north of the border. The plastic wrapping of the cups too!

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

Timely and concerning data from @TheLancet. Drug-resistant infections know no borders. Every country is at risk.

The response to the #AntimicrobialResistance challenge will only be successful if leaders commit to implementing specific, outcome-oriented actions and targets.

The upcoming #UNGA High-Level meeting is the chance to make that choice.

There’s nothing wrong with wellness interventions for your team (yoga,pizza,massages) but they must be the ‘cherry on top’ of your hard work getting the basics right:

Timely rotas
Timely annual/study leave managemnt
Inductions
Teaching
Culture of respect
Etc

The yoga comes last

Why is Madrid the capital of Spain?

Madrid is quite unique:
• No river
• Very recent
• Tiny when it became a capital
So why?

Where are 2019 voters today? With each square 100k voters in the colour of their 2019 vote (white = too young), this is how polls currently suggest they intend to vote this year.

Am sceptical Labour have gained that many non-voters, but key story is scattering of Tory vote.

I bet pathology conferences have competitions for finding things on a slide. Like first person who finds a Howell-Jolly body wins and when somebody finds it the whole auditorium cheers, but then the referee comes in and is like no thats a Pappenheimer body & they get disqualified

@rwc90 I’d like to know what they want to do about those corridor patients, or extra beds squeezed into bays such that privacy curtains can’t enclose each patient individually. Much more pertinent than any hypothetical gender nonsense

On this day 197 years ago the world's first ever public railway was opened in northern England.

And a whole new form of architecture was born: the train station.

So, to celebrate, here are some of the world's greatest train stations...

Beef emits 31 times more CO₂ per calorie of food than tofu does. By cooking so many cows, humans are cooking themselves, too. Forgoing steaks may be one of the most efficient ways to reduce our carbon footprint https://t.co/gZ4agthnhZ

whenever I see someone in a scrub cap I imagine there is a little rat under the cap pulling their hair and making them do medicine
