Good to know!
Those doctors who striked, I urge you to check your pay deductions As per @BMA_JuniorDocs guidance you should be deducted 1/365 of your annual salary for every strike day and not the number of hours! (Unless your hourly rate of a day is less than 1/365 of your salary - unlikely)

50-year old man (paedophile) accused of sexually assaulting a girl. Case dismissed in Swedish high court because of language used by girl to describe her genitals. “Snippa” is equivalent to “Willy” used in English for penis. Language is a feminist issue. 🧵

A few points I feel are crucial here: 1) when it comes to describing female genitalia, language is lacking. vulva = external visible part, vagina = internal canal leading to opening of the womb. no good word for the entire thing

Solidarity with nurses striking on January 18th and 19th! Your work and well-being matter.
People aren't dying because nurses are striking Nurses are striking because people are dying

🚨 Authorities are preparing to execute 22-year-old Iranian protester Mahan Sadrat Madani a month after a grossly unfair sham trial without due process. #DoNotExecute #ماهان_صدرات #MahanSadrat @khamenei_ir @UN @UNHumanRights bit.ly/MahanSadrat
Two brothers, #FarhadTahazadeh & #FarzadTahazadeh from Oshnavieh, are at imminent risk of execution. German politician @HakanDemirNK is their political sponsor. Stop their executions now! @khamenei_ir @UN @UNHumanRights #DoNotExecute bit.ly/3hqjJuo

My work commute is about 40 min one way so I’ve started to get back into podcasts again. This episode was SO good! Feeling empowered to share tips with patients 🌱 thanks @theproof
Lower Your Cholesterol With THESE Foods - with Dr. David Jenkins | The Proof Podcast EP 216 youtu.be/UywIqHfU-no
Was told most F2s struggle to take all their study leave - I’m allowed to do one more course other than ALS but have 12 days left of study leave. Don’t think I’ll find an approved course that is 12 days long… Is this just how it works in my trust? (eng)

It’s a job like no other I feel privileged to do, but a thankless job… patients benefit from a doctor who looks after themselves too!
