Thanks for raising this really important issue. It’s sad that you have to. NHS Education for Scotland (NES) and Office of the Chief Executive NHSScotland, please give this issue the attention it requires. Deciding which budget funds this is something that must be done to support the wellbeing and health of our trainees.

The mole thread (QT) got some love yesterday and many have asked what happened to the mole. Here is the concluding part of the story, the moral of which is that you should ALWAYS trust your ODP. They’re never wrong 🧵

People losing it because they think that public health are just concealing the type of contaminated food from the public. When 2 mins of looking at the UKHSA website tells you this is STEC 0145. Labs around the country noticed that a lot of the cases were genetically similar

It was an absolute pleasure to chat about one of my favourite books, #thepanopticon as well as a crime novel hero from Val McDermid and how lucky I am to get to do my job. Please do give bedside reading podcast a listen for reading inspiration, Tara has insights into so many fab books 🤩
