If we care about protecting children from harmful gambling marketing, it is my opinion that this voluntary ban of a tiny part of gambling marketing in sport is NOT a step forward and will NOT protect children from significant exposure to ads

It may do more harm than good. A🧵1/

The choice of data collection method can make a difference when estimating out of pocket health spending. With @jephatchifamba @KrugerLanthe @martinmckee @PHRIresearch and others we compared estimates from household surveys and pictorial diaries in SAfrica, Tanzania, & Zimbabwe.

Very sad to hear of the death of Professor Paul Wilkinson. We worked together for several years on Lancet Countdown. He was a great thinker on environmental issues, a kind gentle person, who was an expert on air pollution, urban health and impacts in low income countries.

Abortion is health care, and health care is a human right. Criminalization is never an appropriate response for a pregnancy outcome.

Shall we have a cycling thread? This week social media has blown up again locally with motorist anger that cyclists are on the road.

The complaint was about a place with no cycle path, but it's crystallised into "why aren't they on the cycle path". So, here's why!

@LondonU I have been trying to get a transcript from you for over a year - no reply to emails & no answer when I ring your *general switchboard*. How do I get in touch with someone?

‘Ponta de lança africano’ by Jorge Ben Jor reminds me of friends Phil & Jules who move between UK & Brazil & now a song loved by my whole family. &/or ‘Haifa’ by Sona Diabaté & Mmah Syllah - a rare thing - transcendental beautiful song about a football team @BBC6Music #NP6Music

In Leeds today there were queues of people donating clothes, bedding, toiletries for Ukraine at impromptu site at Polish Centre. British people more generous than its shameless government
