10 years ago today, I experienced a bomb scene. I discovered every first aid & disaster course is incomplete. I am committed to amplifying the most-overlooked, most-important interval that could improve patient care. It is time to optimize improvised care in the #disastergap. 
Also called #caregap, the care within is initiated by #spontaneousresponders. Whether trained or untrained, spontaneous responders step up from within a scene itself, doing the best they can, with whatever they have available, to care for others, while experiencing scene hazards.
#SpontaneousResponders are not #firstresponders. They will not be invited to a debriefing. They also are not bystanders and may go home with scene trauma or blood on their clothes. The most overlooked group of rescuers in the most overlooked disaster interval, the #caregap.

Remove any clothing or jewellery near the burn,
but do not remove clothing that is stuck to the burn.

Brief thread: Support your local volunteer #firefighters; they're the ones who are actually in your towns and villages with all the equipment and training when there's a bad accident --
They are individual nodes of trained help walking by, driving by, there right away even before their trucks and gear show up, while police and ambulances can take twenty minutes or longer to show up and the hospital is closed.

They're not just for fires. I'd guess, from what I was on the edges of last night, quite a lot of what they do isn't fires.
How to crack Nov 22- INICET in 2 months:
3 principles-
1. You need to get a score of 140/200 to get a top 100 rank. So you have a room to get 45q incorrect.
2. Previous year topics form 80% of the paper
3. Revision in last 10 days is the key.

So focus on 1st and 2nd proff > minors > majors (if time)
Allot 5 days for each subject.
D1- most important: just do 5 yr PYQs. Year wise note down important topics asked each year.
D2-D5 just read those topics in detail.

Two shocking eye-witness accounts corroborate something worse than we could have ever imagined. The @CapitolPolice appear to not only be responsible for the #death of multiple #protesters (which they lied about) but also for the #death of a fellow officer, #BrianSicknick.
We stand in #Solidarity with our Workers in the #Unions & this is the only way to have a say in our Working Environment by #WorkingTogether & doing a #Strike!
People like us, who've been arguing against the broken Gears & For-profit exploitation of #Capitalism, comes in to help.

We're in a #SocietalCollapse as the Full Stop & Endgame of #Capitalism's Growth has begun! We need Calls & Movements for a "Great Transition" from this broken #Dystopia where we have a #ClimateCrisis, #HousingCrisis, #Pandemic, #EvictionCrisis, #HealthcareCrisis,...
#BiodiversityCrisis, etc.
As the system focuses on #Economic Growth, #Corporate Interest & Businesses First while exploiting the #Labor who are treated like hell & not paid a #LivingWage nor anything while everything to basically live is practically an Expense under #Capitalism.

Buckin' #TouThao doesn't need any damned water if #GeorgeFloyd didn't get any air! We're having #DerrickChauvin's trial now, but you're not forgotten #Thao, you should've stopped the other 3 from #murdering #GeorgeFloyd, but you helped them! #ConvictThao!
At 09:30 #TouThao says he was taught #CPR at the police academy, recertified every two yrs. Why didn't he pull that skill out of his ass during #TheMurderOfGeorgeFloyd? The first thing they teach you is to take a pulse, did he take #GeorgeFloyd's pulse?
This meeting takes place in August 2020, it's warm in Minnesota in August, and #TouThao is there voluntarily, he is not under arrest, so all five of these men are #CovidIdiots because they aren't having this meeting outside and with masks on.

Dear @rpfwr1 while this man might have broken rules, here are few Qs:
Are there ambulances outside every railway stn?
How long would it have taken for a stretcher to fetch this woman in labour?
How many personnel have been trained to handle critical situations on rly platforms?
Are there ambulances outside every railway stn?
How long would it have taken for a stretcher to fetch this woman in labour?
How many personnel have been trained to handle critical situations on rly platforms?
Let me tell you how ill equipped authorities are to handle such situations on rly platforms:
A man once fell under a train. Nobody knew what to do. Because I had undergone #FirstAid training, I checked for his vital stats, under the train.
It was 15mins before authorities came.

It was 15mins before authorities came.
Kept telling people to call the ambulance that's supposed to be stationed outside every rly stn. Nobody knew where/how to call someone.
A cop came in, probably of @rpfwr1 but he wouldn't lend me a hand. He only stopped people from crowding around me & the unconscious bleeding man
