Sometimes, in our medical silos, information from another speciality breaks through the firewall and the advances sound like science fiction. Extraordinary progress in HIV.
Prevention beats cure, which is why it's so exciting that Lenacapavir, a twice-yearly HIV preventative, just got approved for the first time (by the FDA) Why is it such a big deal? When trialled (in women in South Africa and Uganda) there were 0 HIV infections 🧵

Thank you Senator Bernie Sanders - ‘In 1948 you developed the NHS - that was a message that went all over the world - healthcare is a human right…and other countries followed you.’ https://t.co/sV10M85ElO

An educational rota burr entrapment case. When a burr is stuck, we pull on the burr. If that doesn’t work, then we think of complex manoeuvres: cutting the burr, removing Teflon sheath, guide extensions, parallel wiring/ballooning and ping pong guides etc… But we often forget

It's impossible not to root for Luis Enrique. Has spoken courageously about losing a child, insisting people remember all the light his late daughter, Xana, brought to world before tragically dying in 2019. The most human, soulful manager in sports ❤️ https://t.co/04fEjUEqPW
