Today ~40k doctors become residents. But 1.6L took #NEETPG2021. For ~1.2L doctors that couldn’t make it - your rank isn’t everything, though today it may seem so. Your compassion, empathy & diligence is what matter in the end. You will live to fight another day. #MedTwitter

Denmark to end #COVID19 restrictions from next week. More countries will follow. Soon, the disease will become a life endangering threat for the immunocompromised/immuno-ignorant, while will be a mild flu for the vaccinated. Moral: get vaccinated. #Omicron #VaccinesWork

I’ve seen #nurses with more dexterity than general surgeons, more presence of mind that physicians, more muscle power than orthopaedicians and more patience than paediatricians. It would do this country well to uplift their nurses this #NursesDay. There I said it, you can too.
