Today, set yourself the task of saying “thank you” to more people than you normally would. See how it makes you feel.
“When you say thank you, you become a richer person”
Enjoying insights from Alex Gillespie from LSE at today’s #LfE4 meeting.

This sums it all up. 96% in mocks & denied a place due to a computer algorithm deciding grade should be lower. Unfair. Biased against under resourced schools. As a student from an 80s under funded comp I’d have suffered with these #AlevelResults and not now be a doctor
13 Aug 2020
#AlevelResults Predicted A*A*A*. Expcetionally low performing school. No one had ever achieved a Cambridge offer before in my sixth form. Performed at A*A*A consistently. Today, A*AB. Dropped two grades in Sociology. Denied Cambridge place. This is what has happened to me.

If I had been through the same algorithm as A-levels yesterday I wouldn’t be a doctor.
My wife wouldn’t be a surgeon.
Let that sink in.
This is a monumental failure.

University admissions committees: you have the power to undo some of the injustice created by the government’s algorithm. You want the best students not the ones from the most privileged backgrounds

An Anaesthetist explaining how stuff works: a thread.....
There has been a lot on Twitter about whether wearing masks reduce your oxygen levels. Some of it, depressingly, from people who should know better: (1)

Our first paper is now online as an early access article published in @Anaes_Journal
Headline: about 1 in 10 healthcare workers involved in performing tracheal intubation developed COVID-19 related outcomes in the ~1 month after first intubating.

We’re “officially” on level 4 moving to 3. Why are we into Level 1 precautions
We're exiting lockdown with a larger number of deaths than we did when we actually entered lockdown...

I am heartbroken and disgusted to see one of my family members a young black man w/his hands up peacefully protesting and an NYPD officer pulls down his mask and pepper sprays him. @NYCSpeakerCoJo @BPEricAdams @FarahNLouis @JumaaneWilliams @NewYorkStateAG @NYPDShea cc: @EOsyd
