High levels of an #infection in #Massachusetts is causing both gastrointestinal (#diarrhoea, #vomiting) & respiratory (#cough, #sinus, #headache) symptoms WITHOUT typical fever or runny nose - School children & parents/guardians across #boston suburbs affected for last 3 weeks.
Note the CDC data suggests very little SARS-CoV-2 (Omicron) or influenza (flu) at this time in Massachusetts or Connecticut or New Hampshire. So diagnostic tests being used are not catching this circulating pathogen, or a seasonal coronavirus/norovirus/adenovirus is the culprit
According to the data on SARS-CoV-2-positive PCR tests there is very low levels of COVID-19 over last 3 weeks in Massachusetts, CT, NH, RI & VT. Yet there are several #school #children, #teachers and #parents with gastrointestinal & respiratory #infection symptoms in these states

Ever wonder how to rehabilitate weak and ineffective #cough 🗣️💨 in people with #dysphagia 😷? In this tutorial, we will discuss how to train voluntary cough function through Voluntary Cough Skill Training (#VCST).
#VCST is a treatment paradigm intended to improve the accuracy 🏹🎯 and consistency of performing strong 💪 and effective coughs in people with #dystussia in order to increase the ability to eject #penetrant and #aspirate material from the #larynx and #lungs 🫁 after #swallowing.
#VCST is a skill-training treatment paradigm used to target single 🗣️💨 and sequential 🗣️💨💨💨 voluntary #cough. There is not a strict protocol to adhere to. Instead, the practice conditions for #VCST should be guided by principles of #motorlearning 🧠
#Cough 🫁🌬️ is important for ejecting foods and liquids from the #lungs to prevent #asphyxiation and #aspiration #pneumonia. In this tutorial, we will discuss why and how to assess voluntary #cough as a way to enhance your clinical #swallow evaluation. (Warning: long thread!)
Evaluating #cough is important three reasons. First, weak coughs (#dystussia) are associated with #dysphagia and #aspiration in many patient populations. Therefore, assessing cough can improve the accuracy of predicting and identifying someone with #dysphagia.
Second, assessing #cough provides a more holistic understanding of #airway protection. In other words, we should try to understand how well a patient with #dysphagia can clear #aspirate material from the airway, in addition to understanding how frequently/severely they aspirate.
Some alternative posters for Cry Danger (1951), along with what they used to call a lobby card - there are a few others on the film’s IMDb page too. #Noirvember #CryDanger
Contrast the American posters with these two much racier French and Italian posters, both of which foreground Fleming. #Noirvember
This was great fun. Powell plays Rocky (it doesn’t suit him), an ex-con who gets out of jail after serving 5 years for a robbery he didn’t commit and goes after the gangster who framed him. Fleming plays the wife of Powell’s supposed partner in the robbery, who’s still in jail.
An Autopsy of #AI #COVID19 #cough diagnosis

AI is not magic: AI simply builds up a rich representation of the world (a model) and uses this model to predict, categorise, and create. What is exciting about AI is the complex relationships which they can reflect. Key tweets are 8, 11, and 13-19. The rest is background. 2/25
For example, does wet weather effect attendances to A&E (ER)? My instinct (as an Emergency medicine doctor) is that there is an effect, but this effect depends on whether it was raining the day before, whether it is cold or warm, and whether Liverpool was playing football. 3/25
In #postcovid patients managing the #cough, clearing it out properly is a big part of the recovery process that every #COVID19 patient has to go through.

#Covid19 cases 🤧 are on the rise and we have been getting a lot of questions about #covid19 which is totally understandable. We will try to answer a few of them in this thread #gp #portmarnock 1/n 👍
If you think you have #Covid19 (ANY of #cough, #breathlessness, #fever, lack of #smell or #taste) CALL YOUR GP 👩🦰🧑🦱 and we we can arrange a Covid swab for you if needed 2/n
If you are a close contact of a confirmed Covid 🦠 case you need to isolate for 14 DAYS from your contact with the person.
Public health will call you & arrange a test for you. GPs DO NOT arrange these #Covid19 tests as follow up swabbing, contact tracing etc may be needed 3/n

1/4 #COVID19 key concerns in 🇨🇦: Today, in lieu of a daily in-person update to the media, I have issued a statement you can read in full here: canada.ca/en/public-heal…
2/4 Every year on this day, la Fête nationale du Québec and Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day bring Canadians together to celebrate Quebec’s history and the vibrancy of Francophone language and culture. #stjeanbaptiste #FeteNationaleQC
3/4 La Francophonie is intrinsic to Canada’s diverse and inclusive identity. I encourage Canadians to observe this important celebration while maintaining of #publichealth measures that keep #COVID19 under control.
Over the past week I’ve been getting so many calls from friends all over asking me to diagnose if they are #COVID infected. Honestly I’m no doctor but just an early test mule on the virus. My Q&A typically ranges as follows. I hope it helps some of you from needless paranoia.
1/n First thing to iron out is the difference between #regularflu Vs #COVIDflu. I’ve done some research and found this helpful table for you guys. 90% of you have just a regular flu owing to seasonal changes. Don’t panic ! However if you’re in the 10% read on.
2/n Assuming all your symptoms are #COVID in nature immediately #homequarantine in a separate room. Testing is hard to get by in #MaharashtraBachao #Delhi so don’t bother waiting for your turn. Begin treatment for novel Corona while taking care of not infecting others around
#COVID19NIGERIA We have all heard about how the @NCDCgov toll free number has been inundated with phone calls. So much so that it is difficult for them to attend to priority cases. Let's #TakeResponsibility for our #COVID19 response by cooperating with the authorities. 1/n
#COVID19NIGERIA We now have more people who were exposed to newly identified #COVID19 cases. If you fall in this category, your first action is to please try to STAY CALM. Your next one should NOT BE to call @NCDCgov BUT TO #selfIsolate. This is how to #selfisolate👇🏾. 2/n
#COVID19NIGERIA If you traveled to #Nigeria in the last 2 weeks from a country with widespread #COVID19 including transiting there for >24 hours, the FIRST STEP is to #selfisolate. The same applies if you have been exposed to a confirmed #COVID19 case. #TakeResponsibility 3/n
1/5 #COVID19 Risk to Canadians: people over 65 years of age and people with a weakened immune system or underlying medical condition are at a higher risk of developing severe disease.
2/5 Avoid settings that can increase your risk of contracting #COVID19: heavily affected areas, cruise ships, international conferences & other large gatherings in enclosed spaces. Protect yourself, protect others. #coronavirus
3/5 The risk to Canadian travellers abroad will vary depending on the destination, as well as the person’s age and health status. Please consult the destination page on travel.gc.ca for the latest travel advice.

In 1882, Anna O is considered 'patient zero' for the diagnosis of "Hysteria"
#Hysteria was originally a diagnosis only given to women
Anna O fell ill in 1880 after her father died, possibly of Tuberculosis
