Ar we missing the larger point? They want to use a doctor's signature, put all medicolegal responsibility on the doctor, absolve themselves of any responsibility and profit out of it. That is prescription validation.
Apollo Hospitals is reportedly offering only ₹15 per tele-consultation to MBBS Doctors! Degrading, unacceptable!! #medtwitter @HospitalsApollo @ApolloHosMumbai

Let me just say this bluntly, because doing collaborative AI research in India is getting ridiculous now: India cannot afford this siloed AI culture anymore! We are a resource-poor country. We don’t have the money or time to make the same mistakes the US and China already made

There are so many divided views on this post. I think what works best for me is, no-nonsense-, honesty. Tell the kid, there will be a small prick for important medicine. Some don't react. Some scream and cry, but just tell them, "it's done" and don't pay attention to the
Throwing syringe after vaccination, touching / kissing on cheek is not standard practice. In fact without all this drama , they cry for less than a minute & are fine. it is better to cry when pain is experienced..

As a girl dad, this makes me extremely uncomfortable. I would never want our pediatrician doing this.

Robots are exempt from scrubs.
Optimus is going to be one of the biggest equalizers humanity has ever seen. Bc when every family can access a robot that delivers world class medical care, it means the quality of your health no longer depends on your income, your zip code, or your background. I get it now.

This is a reminder that 1. ISRO has a one-of-a-kind blackhole hunting satellite. 2. Their 'Astrosat' discovered one of the oldest galaxies in the universe. 3. Very soon they'll launch a quantum comm. satellite. But you don't know that because their media team is too incompetent

Disclaimer says don't rely on the report for merit or accuracy and don't treat patients based on this report. What is the point of this 'report' then?
Doomsday is here ?? Shed some light on AI man @DrDatta_AIIMS What’s the current scope and use. Legal restrictions in India, litigation issues? Can we sue AI for wrong reports ? A mere disclaimer doesn’t make the AI company safe.

I had seen @varundubey on a podcast. Was impressed when he didn't blame the doctors but the broken system. But now when he says 'honestsecondopinions' he implies that all other opinions from doctors are profit driven and dishonest. It's a funnel to get more patients and that's
I am just so sick of this unnecessary rush to prescribe surgeries going on in our industry. Girl in her 20s gets prescribed a pace maker. At age 20. Comes to us for a second opinion. Our doctors took a super detailed history, as they always do, and figure out it was just drug

It seems striking to me that many important molecular biology discoveries of the 20th century did not require any additional experiments -- they were basically idea-driven arguments based on existing data -- or required only a single well-designed experiment. For example: 1.

It is easy to lure the world's "top" scientists - they are chrysotactic. But they will bring with them all the decrepitude of modern academia - because they ARE the decrepitude. No amount of money can save them from themselves. The real - and much harder - challenge will be to

The masks are coming off. Poor choice of words and poorer analysis.
“Pakistan has a tariff of 19% and India has a 50% tariff. Where is the friendship between Modi and Trump? This is a slap in the face for Modi because the Indian opposition is asking him questions,” says former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan

My wife did her public defense for her PhD last night. It was virtually so me and our daughters listed in. At the end the girls were curious why Mommy had to do it and I told them that Mommy just earned her doctorate and is now Dr. Mommy. 7 year old, “I don’t know what that
