The NHS is here for everyone. Trans and non-binary people deserve equity of access, experience and outcome in healthcare. We will continue to work hard to be a voice and advocate for all in the LGBT+ community @lizzietweeter #LGBTHealth #TransRightsAreHumanRights 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

[Deborah Gold @deborahagold]

Been awaited for an age - these important new guidelines are a key step in improving PrEP equity and updating the science. Hurrah!

Great 🧵 from the marvellous @profchloeorkin on #mpox 👇🏽

[@profchloeorkin.bsky.social @profchloeorkin]

1 Thread on #mpox which is in the news again since a returning traveller was diagnosed in Sweden with a new more dangerous strain which reached Europe for the first time.

In the 2022-23 global outbreak I was clinical advisor to @WHOEurope

Here’s what I think you need to know.

@tash_om Congrats 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Well deserved.

Camilla didn’t change positions so pointedly for no reason. She was in full protection mode.
Sophie eyed the threat first.

[Stuart Edwardson @scotgasdoc]

Transgender people exist, and they deserve good healthcare.

There are significant obstacles to trans people accessing good quality everyday healthcare.

This guidance aims to help change that (1/n)

[Michael Brady @drmbrady]

Really helpful, sensible and inclusive guidance that focusses on safety, dignity and the needs of transgender and gender diverse people.👇🏽
Thanks to all involved 👏🏽👏🏽#LGBTHealth 🏳️‍⚧️
