Latest data shows a further drop in FTE GPs between October and November; @KieranLincsGP comments

The Daily Mail would have you believe that GPs don’t want to see you face-to-face.
But this is the reality for general practices across the country, as stated by the Chair of the Royal College of GPs.
If you value the truth, please watch and RT.

Amazing effort by the local doctors today in Walthamstow to vaccinate more than 3000 people at short notice today - shows the support for them and their ability to act at short notice! 👏👏#lovewalthamstow @wfcovidvaccines
Dr Janakan Crofton retweeted
If you're heading to Walthamstow Library to get your vaccine, please don't go too early! You will not be seen straight away even if you arrive early.
It's best to be there just 10 minutes before your appointment to avoid long waits.
Dr Janakan Crofton retweeted
Going for your vaccine this weekend? Thank you and well done for getting vaccinated 👏🏻
Support the staff, volunteers and other residents by wearing your face covering if you can and keeping apart from others.
