Inquiring about covid, burnout, and marginal data
It's October's Talk Evidence, and that means the autumn is upon us including those autumnal viruses. Here in the UK covid is on the rise, and Joe Ross is looking at some research on how good those elusive lateral flows are at detecting infection among people with symptoms of covid. Juan will give us an update on the covid inquiry, the collection of analysis articles The BMJ is publishing looking at the interface of evidence and policy in our decisions about how to handle the pandemic. Since the pandemic moral among clinicians in many health systems has fallen even further, workloads have spiralled. Coupled with other pro...
