As the #COVID19 crisis expands, some hosp are using comorbidities & age as indicators for who to offer intensive care or not. Why not also incl a frailty index or karnofsky perform score to gauge overall status? We need to be evidence-based, fair & equitable using standard tool

I keep thinking I need to pay rent bc month end. Then I realize it's STILL March. March feels like 10 years already.

No room for wishful thinking. Read Dre Joanne Liu on preparing for the worst: theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl… 1. Medical facilities dedicated only to COVID19 pts 2 Protect physical/mental wellness of healthworkers always including the right PPE 3. Maintain critical care for non-COVID pts

Amen to banning the words "withdrawal of care" - CARE CONTINUES ALWAYS. The discussion should be less about vents for #COVID19 and how are we going to provide good quality palliative care to acutely unwell people who are breathless and isolated from families. THIS IS CARE!

With the urgent & rapidly growing research efforts in #COVID19 🌍 🚨 we have pivoted our resources 2 help COVID19COS w/ establishing core outcomes ... & invite u and ur family, friends, colleagues ... to take part too: covid-19-cos.org/get-involved/ // Julian Elliott Jonathan Craig

The indirect consequences of #COVID-19 will be very long lasting. Already, facing difficulties for cancer biopsies, some immunosuppressive therapies delayed. And the psychological trauma for grieving families, friends and healthcare workers is going to v long lasting.

Excellent visual representation of #COVID19 daily mortality rate - helps with those naysayers who don't think it is such a big deal. #PhysicalDistancing public.flourish.studio/visualisation/…

We live in interesting times thanks to #COVIDー19. Virtual journal club to keep some semblance of normalcy, then virtual office mtg, then virtual #Neurology tele & video clinic. Takeaways once the pandemic is over: virtual services should be ramped up esp for pts in remote areas.

Sensible, compassionate, practical guidelines: caring for someone with #COVID19 at home, including #EoL care. Well done, Hospice UK Brava, Ilora Finlay, who wrote this document. Share it with the whole world, everyone. WeDistrictNurses The RCN Royal College of General Practitioners APM #pallicovid

Sad news: UpToDate creator died from #COVID19 complications. Of all the recent useful medical inventions, UpToDate ranks highly - I use it almost every day. Sad loss for med community. statnews.com/2020/04/25/rem…

Mehta, MD, MPH, FAAHPM Jessica M McFarlin Chris Tarolli, MD, MHPE S Muehlschlegel MD MPH, FNCS, FCCM, FAAN Jori Fleisher Jessica Besbris . Right now listening to abstract on PEG use for persons with ALS and effect on QoL

For those in academics wanting to diversify your committee, panel, grant: YES. DO THAT. PLEASE. But to be anti-racist, do so with purpose. Avoid falling into the trap of tokenizing your colleagues. A thread [I’ll use the term POC, but can apply to other marginalized groups] 1/
