Recently published papers: pulmonary care, pandemics, and eugenics in surviving sepsis?
Respiratory failure is one of the leading admission diagnoses on the critical care unit, and the journals have reflected this over the past few months.

There are prophecies of more pandemics, but panic is futile because survival is all down to your genes.
