The Italian airforce gives a big emotional lift to their nation with Pavarotti singing Nessun Dorma (let no one sleep)and where lyrics say venceremos(we will overcome)they have their planes dramatically facing and overpowering the single plane (virus) with their National Flag!

[U.S. Surgeon General @Surgeon_General]

Hospital & healthcare systems, PLEASE CONSIDER STOPPING ELECTIVE PROCEDURES until we can #FlattenTheCurve! 👇🏽

Each elective surgery you do:

1) Brings possible #Coronavirus to your facilities
2) Pulls from PPE stores
3) Taxes personnel who may be needed for #COVIDー19 response

[American College of Surgeons @AmCollSurgeons]

Hospitals, health systems and surgeons should prepare now to manage elective surgical procedures during COVID-19 outbreak, with a plan to minimize, postpone, or cancel at this time. Read our guidance: https://t.co/rWRoDYl598 #COVID19

[Marco Del Chiaro @chiaro_del]

Neoadjuvant chemo will probably become the standard for everyone. RT...very debatable. No data support that. Vessels ...really we believe that a small anatomic detail makes a difference in a systemic disease? Biology is the key. New data are coming from @CUpancreas soon!

Nice report by the Dutch pancreatitis study group @pancreatitis_nl. True IAP (thorough negative workup) still benefited from empiric cholecystectomy: 11% vs 38.9% developed recurrence. Full link: doi:10.1002/bjs.11429.

Systematic review on merits of #cholecystectomy in “idiopathic” acute #pancreatitis: 20% less recurrences. Better diagnostics needed! EUS? #PICUS multicenter study @pancreatitis_nl on EUS in IAP recently completed. @BJSurgery @EAHPBA @my_ueg
