Read on Twitter
I saw a female OBGYN tweet that her colleagues should continue working without universal precautions
Or they be sacked and fresh canon fodder employed
She's literally undone the work of Ignaz Semmelweis from 2 centuries ago (the story involves obgyn)

Cool story
A lot of pregnant women died from sepsis 200 yrs ago and they couldn't figure why
Ignaz watched the med students go from touching cadavers to vaginal exams on the pregnant women
You know what he did? He stopped everything, set up a wash station and guess what?

Infection rates dropped.
Women survived.
He wrote a paper but his peers wrote him off. Women went back to dying.
He eventually ended up in an asylum
200 years later in 21st century Nigeria. Doctors are saying.. STOP.. get us the universal precautions to keep people safe

And a doctor
A gynaecologist no less.
With decades of experience apparently.
Basically utters unscientific crud and has put the health of Nigerian doctors AND patients on the table of politics.
If anything the resident are obeying the oath "above all do no harm".

I will end this by saying dear doctors continue your advocacy for your patients
They know you're fighting for them
And to the OBGYN that wants to kill her precious patients. God be with you and protect you from malpractice litigation and treat you fairly in eternal justice
