The health divide between East and West Germany closed in a generation - largely from reducing poverty rates. Food for thought @wesstreeting
Our new study in @socscimed on what works to reduce regional health inequalities is now available: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
We find that increased social security is the main factor contributing to lower inequalities in mortality following German reunification. @ProfBambra

⏰ A stark warning from the launch of the final report of the @IPPR Commission on Health and Prosperity.
We are the sick man of Europe. That status is costing lives and severely damaging our economy. Children's health is in particular crisis.
But. It doesn't have to be this way

Our academics @DrNCBennett and @ProfBambra have analysed data that shows that the English national health inequalities strategy from the last @UKLabour government was associated with a decrease in inequalities in mortality for those aged 65-69 - read more👇healthequitynorth.co.uk/heal…
With detailed use of statistical material, @MichaelMarmot and @ProfBambra "barely contain their indignation at the prevailing lazy and collusive approach to health-based inequality over most of the past decade"
Great to see this review by Rowan Williams of The Conservative Effect by @AnthonySeldon and @Tom__Egerton in @TheStaggers
"The Conservative Effect explores how theatrical short-termism & specious rhetoric defined 14 years of mis-rule.”

Turns out the Governments of the UK "failed their citizens" during the pandemic. And in areas like ours in the North East with high levels of vulnerability (health-wise), this was doubly so.
Not a surprise - (1/3)
There were "serious errors" on the part of the state in the run-up to Covid-19 - including failing to take inequality into account chroniclelive.co.uk/news/hea…
