This is unacceptable. Politics is intimately involved with health and medicine at every turn, and if you think otherwise it’s because you benefit from the current political system.

Can’t wait to hear what Kermode and @simonmayo.bsky.social make of this

“The law doesn't specify any changes to how people can identify their gender or speak about it, but because it gives a technical definition of gender, it could impact how courts interpret the law in the future.” This definition DOES NOT MEAN ANYTHING SCIENTIFICALLY! Don’t give it credibility!

Surprise! It costs money to guarantee a 3 day in-patient postnatal stay. Especially after decades of underinvestment. And, it turns out, you can’t replace midwives and postnatal nurses with AI.

To be clear: human sex is not binary. This is transphobia to chase votes from a small but worryingly vocal group of transphobes.

He kaikiri tēnei kāwanatanga (this government is racist). ((Hope I translated this correctly))

And so it begins (with 60% less on offer than last election)

As a healthcare worker who has worked a LOT of public holidays over the past 20+ years, this government can get stuffed

Highly recommend the delightful first episode of this new podcast about the 해녀 haenyeo divers of Jeju in South Korea

I think that’s called a bribe

JFC: “The centre will have a dedicated substation and consume 280 megawatts of power, making it the country's second-biggest electricity user after the Tiwai Point aluminium smelter, consuming around 6 percent of New Zealand's total annual electricity demand.”

Reckon the South Korean government will notify Nicola by text message?

Good news that COVID is getting at least some coverage…. But not a mention of masks or clean air 🙄😷

Maybe doing the same thing again and again (ie not doing much) and expecting a different result each time isn’t working?

In a blaze of no publicity, the AoNZ COVID vaccine is being updated

Spotted this in a skip outside the Iranian Embassy in Wellington last Friday evening. In hindsight, probably should have paid more attention to it.

Nope. And NOPE. This may be “freeing up clinician time” (coz productivity is the only important metric for patient care, apparently), but writing patient notes is a hugely complex process that allows the formulation of a situation & management. Outsourcing the writing removes the thinking.

This government needs to be voted out yesterday

those in Aotearoa New Zealand, please remember that you might be eligible for a COVID booster. It's not being well advertised, but if you're 30+ or pregnant you are eligible every 6 months.

Please consider submitting your thoughts on Pharmac’s proposed changes to COVID antivirals

Please consider signing this petition. Urgency is massively misused in AoNZ, perfectly & jaw-droppingly demonstrated this week by the current government.
