Must watch report on how the Coservative party are destroying the NHS by stopping GP practcies from hiring more GPs - shame on them #C4News

Victoria Macdonald, "Patients complain that they can't get through to their GPs on the phone.. Appointments.. Can't be seen for 2, 3 even 4 weeks"

"At the same time we're hearing about GPs who can't get jobs and locums who are out of work"

"British Medical Association.. A survey of 2,000 GPs in England.. 4 in 5 are struggling to find work.. 1 in 3 are leaving the NHS"

Dr Katie Bramail-Stainer, "This has been a problem for 10 months.. We've told Conservative ministers.. We've told the department of health.. And it's got worse"

"The income going into GP practices is dropping.. They are cut to the bone.. They have no resources"

Victoria Macdonald, "£1.4 billion has been ring fenced for physios, paramedics or physician associates (fake GPs).. So practices have no choice but to employ them instead of GPs and nurses"

Dr Suzanne Gaskell, "Locum GPs who have never struggled to find shifts are struggling to find anything at all.. Lots have gone overseas to Canada, Australia"

Dr Steve Taylor, "GPs are doing 20% more work since the pandemic.. It's probably why they're not investing.. But patients all the time are saying they can't get access to their GP"

Matt Frei then tears apart Conservative Maria Caulfield who tries to dismiss the issue affecting GPs

@WG_RumblePants @melindafarrell @AatifNawaz @AlexHartley93 @isaguha Agree with all your calls - I find Isa and Tuffers on commentary together is a recipe that’s bound to get me laughing, and works from a cricket perspective too 👏🏼

It has been quite the year, so as a distraction from all that here are my WTF TV news moments from 2023 ✨

@DanNeidle A brilliantly informative thread, thanks!

[Tom Newsom-Davis @tnewsomdavis]

Downloaded @escardio guidelines on cardio-oncology (great app)

✔️ Excellent flowchart on QTc intervals
❗️Keep K+ >4 and Mg >1.10 mmol/l
❗️<480msec is magic number ✅
❗️>500msec is scary number ❌

🙏 Great suggestion by Dr Alex Lyon @RBandH

Rightly, a lot of the focus has been on the changes made leading to an England win.

But one major change has flown under the radar.

Given we're all superstitious, let's not change anything 😁

If you want to understand why doctors strikes will not end any time soon and why this is a disaster, take the temp of doctors from contemporary surveys 🧵
