Moving On Whilst Learning

by Dr Joe | Aug 14, 2023 | General Health, Medical Research, Post Covid, Public Health, The Practice of Medicine

Pandemic recovery has led the vast majority of people to move on from Covid and resume their lives. This is evidenced by data on travel, the low uptake of additional boosters, and the fact that masks are now a rare sight. Some have chosen not to move on, and they are...

by Dr Joe | Mar 13, 2023 | Covid 19, Medical Research, Pharmaceuticals, Politics

A well-researched piece by Dr Malcolm Kendrick, which I encourage all to read, was published this week. It examined the reasons why countries are seeing more cases of Covid19 but fewer deaths. Statistics can be bamboozling and are often used to confuse people. This is...
Evidence Or Snake Oil?

Evidence Or Snake Oil?

by Dr Joe | Aug 26, 2019 | Medical Research, Pharmaceuticals, The Practice of Medicine
