Thought for the day
Many hospitals have re-instated mask wearing as covid cases & hospitalisations rise in the UK. Lots of in-person medical conferences happening currently. Surely it is sensible to advise mask wearing at conferences as well?

Insights from being a patient:
I noted many HCPs judged my reported pain against
A) other pts (‘but pts usually aren’t in this much pain after this operation’) and
B) how much analgesia that *should* have fixed my pain (‘but most pts aren’t in this much pain after 20mg oramorph’)

👇complete lunacy @sajidjavid @RishiSunak . Punitive pension taxation literally pushing most experienced to early retirement, leaving NHS & reducing hours
You really need to start listening to the experts on this, before its too late- #taxunregistered (like judges)

This isn’t about changing history or tradition.
It’s about making people feel that Cricket is a game for them, being more inclusive, more welcoming to a sport which, quite frankly, needs to.
I’m not sorry if you can’t understand this, you just aren’t part of the future.✌️🏏

The police have today concluded that the PM, the Chancellor and the PM’s wife all attended illegal parties, that breached Covid laws written by the PM. This is most serious for Boris Johnson of the three of them, because it was he who told MPs on 8 December…

We’ve changed the rules on passing, and the positioning of, people cycling. When travelling at up to 30 mph, leave at least 1.5 metres when overtaking people who cycle, and give more space at higher speeds.
Check the changes, let’s keep each other safe. #HighwayCode

Thank you @AnnelieseDodds and @wesstreeting for listening to medical professionals and women. The decision to recommend telemedicine is made permanent by the Welsh government also makes the UK government’s decision harder to justify.
The Government plans to withdraw telemedicine abortion services in six months.
Clinical experts are clear that this is a safe, effective, and accessible form of fertility control.
That's why @wesstreeting and I have called on the Health Secretary to offer it permanently.
