"There are several reasons for the lack of vacation time in the USA. One of the big reasons is the broken #healthcare system. Health care costs are so huge, that the per hour costs of health care are very high. Companies don’t want fewer productive hours when the high health care costs are going to be the same for the year no matter if the work year is 1,600; 2,000; or 2,200 hours...&quot…

This is so deeply disturbing and yet, as someone who has seen too much of the inside of a hospital with loved ones, completely unsurprising:
“He diagnosed her as having “social issues,” and noted in his doctor's notes that she had a substance use disorder and generalized anxiety disorder. "
She had sepsis, which is essentially an infection run wild. It is life threatening.
The “Social Issue” in this case was clearly not with the patient, but with the hospital and it is very very common stemming from over-work and under-education. (Even doctors can be undereducated in many ways)

Low-field MRI is safe, feasible and more comfortable for breast screening, finds study
Researchers at Mass General Brigham have demonstrated the technical feasibility of using ultra-low field (ULF) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for breast imaging. With further refinement and evaluation, the technology could offer an alternative to existing breast cancer screening methods and may reduce barriers to screening. Results are published in Scientific Reports.

Good Morning #Canada
Tod Maffin, former #CBC Broadcaster, is now referred to as an expert on Canadian culture and Identity, and a viral content creator. If you have followed Tod over the past few years you have seen a progression from explaining Canadians to our southern neighbours to becoming politely militant in the face of an increasingly hostile U.S. government. His latest contribution deserves the Order of Canada and a superhero cape. He launched a social media campaign to attract American #Healthcare workers to his community and from there the Healthcare Infusion Organization was born. There are now 20 chapters across Canada focused on recruiting and supporting doctors, nurses, and healthcare professionals in local communities facing staff shortages. He has done more to improve Canadian Healthcare than any level of government in this country.
