@hartgroup_org have produced this blogpost. It presents the concerns about midazolam as a false dichotomy and then fails to give both sides equal balance. It also falls foul of several conspiracist tropes. Lets take a look.

John Campbell @Johnincarlisle has stepped away from misinterpretting studies and turned his hand to NG163, the NICE Guideline for COVID (now replaced by NG191 on the MagicApp). As usual, he's wrong. Here's why: 🧵

@dr_musgrave That must have been nice for you. It was fairly apparent on Intensive Care. The fact that we had over twice as many ventilated patients as normal. Many younger and less comorbid than normal. Half of whom are now discharged with complex sequelae under their GP.

"What NICE have done is take that and transpose it into the COVID situation...when most people can get better from it" He seems to have forgotten that this is for patients who are "At the End of Life". Unsurprisingly most people who are at the end of life do not "get better".

We aren't entirely clear why. Breathlessness may be driven by distress rather than purely hypoxia. The mechanics are complicated but we know in other settings, rapid shallow breathing doesn't lend itself to great gas exchange. So Campbells presumption is no more than that.

He starts by focussing on 6.5 shown in full below alongside the bits he has typed up (no idea why he keeps doing this). Specifically 6.5 is combined low dose opioids and benzodiazepines for people who are: -end of life AND -have mod/sev breathlessness AND -are distressed.

"How many patients with COVID 19 were at the end of life?" he asks. Whilst you can argue "self fulfilling prophecy" here we know there were some 45,000 deaths involving COVID by June '20 in England. So certainly enough to warrant a plan of care that provides some symptom control.

A lot seems to be being made of midazolam again. So what is it and why was more of it used than normal, during COVID? Midazolam is a benzodiazepine with many uses. It is a procedural sedative (intravenous, small doses), anticonvulsant (various routes/doses).

He is correct, ofc. But when you don't actually have any treatments (March through June '20) all you can do is treat the often distressing symptoms. When "end of life" has been identified (which isn't easy, but far easier than he suggests) symptom control should be the priority.

And to relatives, I'd say I'm very sorry for your loss. The last 21 months have been awful for those with relatives in hospital or care homes. But, if you have serious concerns about midazolam please discuss with the hospital, not with an Icke, Deevoy, Arcuri, McKeith...

@RealJoelSmalley Sorry, the percentage of all COViD deaths? You mean after we started vaccinating those at high risk the unvaccinated began to make up a higher proportion of deaths? That doesnt seem to be "unusual", more "entirely predictable".

@SpeedyShev @andrewiconnell Much like 6th March. Forgive me for forgetting but can you remember what Italy was like by the end of March?

@ABridgen Hmmm...they all seem to say the exact same thing. And youve not provided any evidence. You do realise people recieving midazolam shortly before death is not uncommon and often entirely appropriate.

@DuttyMonkey_ And an appeal to authority is an odd choice from somebody who argued about midazolam use, using an Icke documentary to an ACCP.

@DrAseemMalhotra If you're going to slag off other healthcare professionals as "bots" for demanding evidence of your claims, you should reply with some evidence rather than an unrelated opinion piece. It amazes me how little you think of your followers that you presume they'll blindly follow.
