Dr Garvin Has hit Back at those who Bashed his Explanation on Bacteria Infection Video that I recently posted.

Woah all his points are really very valid. I remember a time I had a patient who had been treated for UTI and bacterial infection every month. On listening to her I told her it was paramount for us to do culture and sensitivity and her question was,why has no one told me about.

new song just dropped with a music video

Health literacy is factor in Uganda, explaining conditions like pyelonephritis can be difficult patients will say, “Dr uses terms we don’t understand.” I learned to simplify language, telling patients, “You have a bacterial infection in your bladder” rather than “acute cystitis”.

I have seen medics misdiagnosing, especially in kids based on the CBC culture and sensitivity tests need to be normalised across all settings, both Govt or private, before using another antibiotic. It will reduce antimicrobial resistances and rational usage

This guy is very good. I hate that word bacterial infections banaye.

Does he really need to clap back? If he does, it only makes him look insecure. When your facts are backed by science, you don’t argue with noise you let the truth stand on its own.

He is either a fresh graduate or a student.

I agree with him. I hate the tendency of you are suffering from a bacteria infection and no further details.

I haven't made a Diagnosis of Bacterial Infection Culture and Sensitivity takes 3-5 Days How many Hospitals,Medical Centres govt or private have Culture and Sensitivity labs. Culture and Sensitivity departments are costly to establish and again it's all about infection source

Last week, the defense of some drs was that lab tests are expensive there4, they can't ascertain the exact illness, after today, they are like, how can you explain HCP blah.. to a patient. Docs, you have a responsibility to explain what's up with a patient not generalizations

I agree with Dr. 100% pipo bring laziness wen it comes with diagnosis... I add a voice thea is no condition called bacterial infection... Stop misdiagnosing patients for financial gains
