In 1876, Joseph Lister spoke in Philadelphia on sterile surgery. This inspired medicated plaster maker Robert Wood Johnson, who was in the audience, to form a company to make sterile sutures and dressings, starting in 1887. The name? Johnson & Johnson.

US surgeon Nicholas Senn (1844-1908), of retractor fame, proposed using hydrogen gas to identify bowel perforations. In addition to animal models, he tested this on himself by having an assistant pump 15 litres of gas up his anus, and described the experience in great detail.

"It's not just #COVID19 that is killing people,
it's underprivilege,
it's lack of access,
it's years of living with health conditions that haven't been properly managed because of the colour of your skin, or your ethnicity, or your social group"- @DrMikeRyan #HealthForAll

As COVID19 surges across the US, it’s hard to describe the situation inside hospitals for healthcare providers & patients.
We made this video depicting 1 day in the ER to show the painful reality & to remind us why we must remain vigilant. Please watch.
