NEW: Lower nurse staffing in A&E is associated with delays in patients receiving treatments and poor quality care - including an increase in leaving without being seen, delay in accessing treatments and medications, and cardiac arrest. @JdaDrennan https://t.co/0iDEAyt6wE
RAS finally getting drugged is one of the great stories in modern biology, and almost nobody outside oncology understands why it's such a big deal.
YOU'LL LEARN SOMETHING AWESOME TODAY.
i am going to keep this as understandable (and simple) as i can.

I'm a nurse who works in "Amish Country". The Amish are not healthier than the average person-in fact, their kids get a lot sicker a lot more often bc they have no vaccines. If they have "no autism" it's bc they don't get diagnosed, not bc they have some magical no-Tylenol life.
3M updated its list of lot codes used on known counterfeit N95s - counterfeited models include 8210, 8210Plus, 9205+ and 9210+.
This is from July 18th of 2025 and includes new lot codes to look out for. Masks with these lot codes can be genuine or counterfeit - counterfeiters can steal real lot numbers, so the flagged lot codes aren't proof of a counterfeit.
3M warns you to be cautious if ordering from distributors who are not Authorized 3M distributors.

Nurses are the unsung heroes of healthcare, doing far more than just assisting doctors and patients. They are highly skilled professionals providing direct care, advocating for patients, and educating families, yet their immense contributions are consistently undervalued. Their unwavering dedication and comprehensive expertise make them the indispensable backbone of the entire healthcare system, profoundly impacting every life they touch.
Are you a registered nurse working in public mental health?
We want to hear from you!
We’re conducting a research study to better understand the experiences of nurses caring for people with co-occurring mental health and substance disorders.
Thank you @jennyleong.bsky.social for standing up for nurses and midwives in NSW parliament this week. Highlighting the betrayal of #ChrisMinns and his government and the 38,000 people who signed the petition for better pay and conditions in NSW hospitals.
Our new paper in @bmj_latest outlining the evidence for #masks and #respirators for infectious diseases, with a roadmap for commonsense policies during a pandemic. Fig 1 shows the wildly conflicting guidance during COVID. @trishgreenhalgh
