Very interesting to listen to some detailed economic analysis from Vicky Price on @quietriotpod.bsky.social today. It would be good to complement this - particularly to look at the underlying causes of inflation - from someone outside mainstream liberal economics like @macrodosepod.bsky.social

It’s that special time of year where I tell you about 19th century Christmas cards being so batshit weird! Here’s a podcast I did with Dr Ferren Gipson - expect clowns assaulting cops, polar bears savaging men, giant wasps attacking kids, and more weird animal fun! artuk.org/discover/sto...

“…low levels of nurse staffing in hospital wards were associated with an increased risk of death. Having sufficient seniority and experience within the nursing team was important, but it did not provide a strategy to mitigate the adverse effects of staff shortfalls”🩺📟 jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...
