Of course it was clear from the beginning that this policy would cause untold harm, deter people seeking the care they need, undermine the relationship healthcare workers have with patients, & ultimately cost the NHS money. For more info read our briefing medact.org/2019/resources…

It follows powerful statements from @AoMRC @RCPLondon @RCPCHtweets @RCObsGyn & @FPH calling on @DHSCgovuk to scrap the policy & conduct an independent review. However they refuse to publish analysis of the policy, even though it found evidence of harm theguardian.com/society/2019/f…

Doctors in Khartoum today. They're calling it the "White Coat" march.
Many tell me that the revolution is far from over and that they refuse to become complacent. pic.twitter.com/m1w3xAsson

A new housing development has been approved in an area in which residents are advised that opening their windows could put their health at risk. This is not responsible or healthy planning or housing! @DrsAgstDiesel @SadiqKhan @JBrokenshire #airpollution theguardian.com/environment/20…

Just catching up on this excellent piece.
Lots of insight into issues around treating #KnifeCrime and impact of securitisation of healthcare workers on doctor-patient relationships.
Important questions about how frontline doctors can/should support #PublicHealth approaches. twitter.com/soph_timmis/st…
