A major overhaul is expected of the national body that issues Canada's cancer screening guidelines.

The changes were ordered by the federal health minister, following an external review of the Task Force on Preventive Health Care.

The task force is an arm's-length panel set up by the federal government to publish national guidelines for family doctors, advising them on when to send their patients for routine screenings of various illnesses, including common cancers.

But the panel has been criticized for years for failing to fully take in expert advice, using outdated research and being too slow to update its guidelines. Many of the task force's recommendations are over a decade old.

The Guardian, in collaboration with the University of Cambridge Department of Computer Science, launches open-source Secure Messaging in c/[email protected]

[–] otter 15 points 3 days ago

Built by our product and engineering team, in partnership with the University of Cambridge’s department of computer science and technology, Secure Messaging is unlike traditional information-sharing platforms. The technology behind Secure Messaging conceals the fact that messaging is taking place at all by making the communication indistinguishable from other data sent to and from the app by our millions of regular users. By using the Guardian app, other users are effectively providing “cover” and helping us to protect sources.

That is interesting. There is also secure drop, which is used by a lot of news organisations including The Guardian

It takes time to scale up. The bottleneck is usually residency, where we don't have enough doctors to train the new ones

Daycare Staff Find Someone Unexpected Sleeping In One Of Their Cradles in c/[email protected]

The visitor, in this case, was a white-eared opossum — a marsupial native to the region. Evidently, he’d wandered into the daycare center from the surrounding forest and found a perfectly cozy spot to rest his head.
