Not only the Australian NAP, but the vast majority of plans globally do not provide paediatric targets.
Additionally, most healthcare infection surveillance systems are not capturing paediatric indicators
#IDEpi #AMR #PaedSky
A pet paediatric peeve of mine is how many patient systems are designed with one primary next of kin in mind.
To help move towards a society where the domestic load of child healthcare can be equally shared if needed, we need to do better.

I bet there were knock on effects on the children in families where this benefit was reduced.

World Health Organization statement: Maldives achieves historic 'triple elimination' of mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B, HIV and syphilis.
Triple #elimination is possible - we have the tools to prevent vertical transmission of #HBV, #HIV & #syphilis.
Congratulations to #Maldives on doing it, evidencing it & maintaining it... hoping more will follow your lead.

A nice, timely, and as ever beautifully crafted @bmj.com "When I use a word" article from Professor Aronson here about paracetamol and (not) being linked to autism (and previously asthma).

Apropos of nothing, did you know that paracetamol ( acetaminophen, Tylenol ) can treat and even cure heart disease in premature babies?

"Protect them in conflicts and wars"
The Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne recently cancelled their Grand Round Seminar "Children in War" on the basis that some staff may feel unsafe.
Describing the impacts of war on children is not political

A sparkly star, an upsidedown crocodile, and a dinosaur on lab request forms
To have kids engage with the PATROL study, I mentioned in the parental instructions the kids could put stickers on the lab request forms.
Fun for them, and fun for me receiving the samples at work. Hopefully the lab team enjoys it also.

If you're followed by this account, have a Pediatrics label, OR use #Pedsky / #Paedsky & post about pediatric health (not dinner 🍝), you should show up in the feed.
Let’s keep it relevant + helpful for the peds community!
#PaedSky / #PedSky / #SubstanceMisuse folks:

Must be some influencers out there making a fortune in flogging magnesium supplements - LOADS of families asking about these at the moment.
Just me?
