We’re asking parents and carers to be vigilant for symptoms of jaundice in children as we’ve detected higher than usual rates of liver inflammation in children. We are working with NHS and public health colleagues around the UK to investigate.

Shining a light on an incurable condition that's as common as Diabetes & Asthma , yet we know very little about its cause & we tolerate inadequate treatment & poor diagnosis times . Pls be aware of your symptoms, keep a note, Is there a cycle? #endometriosis 🎗#endowarrior

We’ve already seen the struggles that our colleagues are having in the recent @rpharms survey. We need to make sure that teams can breathe. More effort needed by employers eg to close for lunch/5 min break twice a day. Would do so much for teams.

For anyone aged 65+ with a history of cancer (current/previous), please consider taking part in this study. Also interested in hearing from caregivers

RTs appreciated! Equally if you know anyone who may be eligible it’d be great if you could share this info with them. Thanks!

"Pharmacists are accessible and concentrated in areas where covid-19 transmission rates are higher and vaccine uptake lower. There is strong evidence of pharmacists improving adherence to medicines, including supporting the uptake of vaccinations" https://t.co/V6Kz1lUC8L

[CPNI @compharmacyni]

Great to see community pharmacists recognised by the public as trusted healthcare professionals #pharmacyheroes

Interesting quick read on the psychology behind belief in conspiracy theories: "A feeling of powerlessness, insignificance in society and inability to bring about change are therefore associated with higher levels of conspiracy theory belief."

Today, I had the following were in the Pharmacy:

1 CONFIRMED Covid case
3 suspected Covid cases
7 getting items to treat some of the obvious Covid symptoms who were just "stocking up"

Any sign of a vaccine for pharmacy teams?
