The NHS may be broken, according to The Labour Party Wes Streeting MP, but here’s how to fix it. Prevention, Prevention, Prevention, Prevention…. 1. Prevent poverty. It’s the single biggest determinant of ill health, and health and social care demand, both now and in the future. Blair

The academic world can seem bizarre at times... Teams of scientists conduct (hopefully) excellent #research (after getting grant £), then WE pay publishers to get the work into the scientific domain (higher cost open access!)... then they make millions selling to #AI 🀯🧐
