‘A slap in the face’: Hundreds of frontline Covid doctors told they won’t have jobs from August independent.co.uk/news/health/co…

Sad but accurate report from Gareth Iacobucci in the The BMJ on “workforce planning” in NHS England. “It concluded that workforce planning had been overly determined by the funding available rather than by demand & the capacity required.” Link here: bmj.com/content/373/bm…

Exclusive: ‘A sustained threat to patient safety’ - Hospitals across the country swamped by record numbers of patients in A&E independent.co.uk/news/health/nh…

This raises serious questions for @PHE_uk and its dogmatic advice to NHS trusts. How many infections and even deaths have resulted from the guidance to stick with surgical masks only? Thankfully some NHS trusts have ignored and showing the way for others:

Thread of the week :D

You're right Sir Jeremy Hunt MP, it won't Must look at retention as well as recruitment- & a *major* driver out of the profession (& to LTFT) is punitive pension taxation. This *must* be adressed with a tax unregistered scheme, exactly like you have done for the judges RT if agree

I think that, as a result of #IAmPhilipMitchell case, we now all must insist on longer consultations times Trust efficiencies be damned, we need to be able to write three pages of notes per patient consultation

Utterly utterly outrageous - what a horrific way to end what was an amazing season

Imagine the equivalent happening in athletics, say. Telling the lead runner to slow down because someone had fallen over. The guy way behind gets to stretch out, pop on some new trainers and then it becomes a sprint finish. Absolute joke! #F1Finale #Hamilton #Robbed

Massey appears to be the best technical advantage a F1 team can have, who needs DRS when you've got him backing your team lol #F1Finale

Lap 56 : FIA race control “Lapped cars will not be allowed to overtake” Lap 57 : FIA race control “Lapped cars will be allowed to overtake” Lap 58: only 5 out of 12 lapped cars allowed to overtake. Masi “ it’s called motor racing” #MasiOUT #fixed
