And the impact on non-health protection colleagues improving lives every day, striving to reduce health inequalities and funded by public health across the wider health and voluntary sectors. Public health and health protection are not the same thing

[Richard Jarvis FFPH @richardjarvis28]

Didn't catch in @MattHancock speech how we avoid losing the key people who currently do the non-health protection bit of PHE. Public health is all inter-related - fail to do health improvement and healthcare public health and health protection is undermined

[Knock Down the House @knockdownmovie]

This quote from Victor Adebowale's recent blog is particularly timely with #publichealth and #prevention in the headlines today: https://t.co/uM7z9MEBKW

[The King's Fund @TheKingsFund]

Around 7 in 10 adults don't follow guidelines on smoking, alcohol, diet or exercise, yet most services address these behaviours separately which doesn't reflect the reality of people’s lives. https://t.co/yn8uclaOOC #publichealth #prevention
