Since when did the graduation address get so political @otago ? 🫣 an awkward end to an otherwise wonderful graduation ceremony. Did someone pre read that?

So @chrisluxonmp @dbseymour @winstonpeters read this 👇🏻& tell me why NZ can’t/won’t provide school meals to those in need? Not all is about measure, how about some #moralcourage from you all to just do the right thing? That goes for period products aswell #getoveryourselves

A fab eg of how #DigitalHealth could change lives but also how $$ it can be - after studying Digital health for the last 2 years it’s these examples that are so exciting to see - huge impact, person centred , care focused 👏🏻 give a little page in article https://t.co/tMv2Y1jdRo

Good suggested new 20 point checklist for reporting of #Digitalhealth implementations - would love to see it in a more visual form somehow or in a dashboard type building picture. Good to see ethical implications within, be even better to see them explicitly so & impact on care?

Great piece by @Rachel_Smalley re Pharmac. Someone, something, somehow needs to disrupt modern medicines & how they are available, accessed & governed. Current status makes no sense & is detrimental to everything that is being done in medicine. Where is the care? #digitalhealth

The Common Room asked me to explain the issues with Pharmac, why it is failing Kiwis, and the implications of our unfunded medicines crisis. New Zealanders desperately need access to modern medicines to treat cancer, chronic disease, mental health illness, and rare disorders.
