"Lung ultrasound (LUS) will never replace HRCT. It's not intended to replace HRCT. The information provided is much more limited. What LUS can really do is help us answer a very simple clinical question: if the patient we have in front of us needs or does not need a HRCT."

Wild swimming is fun but can be dangerous. If you’re going alone, tell someone and message them before and after. Wear a wetsuit (for flotation + warmth). Use a dry bag (put your stuff in, blow it up - is a flotation device). Stay near the shore unless with a guide. Check tides & local warnings. 🏊🏽‍♂️🏊

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation. I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!

Eighty years ago today, over 7,000 prisoners of the German Nazi camp #Auschwitz, including some 700 children, were liberated by the soldiers of the Soviet Army. 1,689 days of murder, pain, suffering, and humiliation were over. Today, we all remember. We must keep remembering.
