There is a global shortage of primary physicians. But the solution is not to use people without medical qualifications such as physician assistants or associates to fill the gap. Patients deserve physician-led care delivered by full trained doctors whatever country they live in.

If you support single sex spaces for women that include bathrooms, changing rooms & sports please Rt & like. I firmly believe biological females have that right, to personal dignity & fair sport in the Uk but across the whole world. I’m prepared to stand up & be counted. Are you?

HPAT exams taking place all weekend. Another unnecessary stress for many Leaving Cert students who are also undertaking mock exams. This exam costs time money for students while failing to achieve the goal of ensuring an even mix of medical students. @lawlessj time to scrap it

They died while helping others. In 2024, a record 356 humanitarians were killed while providing life-saving aid to people in need in some of the world’s most challenging crises. They didn’t sign up for violence - all they wanted was to save lives. How many more deaths will it take before the world acts? ‼️ Without respect for International Humanitarian Law, countless more lives will be lost. ‼️ Without protection, the risks for humanitarians will grow. ‼️ Without accountability, perpetrators will continue to act with impunity. #ActForHumanity Humanitarians are #NotATarget

If it weren't for a supermarket security guard persuading a woman to make a complaint against Pelicot for up-skirting, his horrific crimes would not have come to light. While we celebrate the courage of Gisele Pelicot, let's also rethink our approach to 'minor' sex crimes.
