We need to protect our patients from the risk of infection & also protect our practice nurses who currently have the highest volume of Face to Face workload. While we GPs go digital, our nurses have to be in contact with patients for some procedures. We need to keep them safe
@Ethixbird This reframing of Boris Johnson as the plucky prime minister who fought the virus & Hancock implying clinicians are reckless with inadequate PPE tells us lots about the paucity of political leadership and their contempt for us.
@Ethixbird Bobbie it is astoundingly insensitive though why would we expect anything approaching humanity from a paper that demanded we sack all the junior doctors when they went on strike for a pay rise?
Didn’t realise you were a trustee Bob. Trying to get local authorities to recognise abused women as one of the vulnerable categories of people seems to be having a mixed reception.
@Ethixbird@TomFarsides @sethklopp @ifarsidds That was such a great day! Happy Anniversary to two of my dearest friends. I think you’ve both done pretty week out if it. Enjoy the celebrations. Much much love. Xx
Please take six minutes of your time to hear their names. Listen and weep, take a moment to recover, and then help to make a difference by donating to @riseuk a charity I am proud to be associated with.
@rcgp@EndometriosisUK What a weird term menstraul dysfunction. Who came up with that charming description? As if chronic period pain isn’t bad enough, young women will now be told their cycle is dysfunctional.
Where to begin in challenging this thoughtless and frankly shocking statement from someone who describes herself as a feminist and a doctor? I hope that any ‘bad genes’ I’ve passed on to my children are compensated for by my parental commitment to unconditional love and support.
