Recently told a consultant that I'm planning to be an intensivist, to which his response was "oh, so you've decided not to have children then?" 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

There are easier answers:
1) stop stoking fear & hate
2) remove the 'fortress Europe' legislative wall which forces people into boats
3) stop arming and funding wars which cause mass displacement
4) welcome refugees - as is your international obligation

"We now know that this is a group of patients who have complex health needs and are also more likely to die prematurely. If anything this is a marker of people who need more input rather than being punished with fines."

For NHS ENGLAND to suggest that patient non-attendance could pay for 2,325 GPs is deeply worrying. It doesn't cost the NHS anything if patients don't attend. Read Colin Leys on Fake News about the NHS @DancingTheMind @drphilhammond https://t.co/UxbNe0digB https://t.co/vk7Wc9KeCx

@martinmckee @LSHTM Women Leaders in Global Health #WLGH18 - refusal by the UK to issue visas to join this @LSHTM Conference hosted @wellcometrust - frustrating, deeply worrying & an increasing trend. View from @Beth_Thompson @wellcometrust - on @BBC4Today this morning and https://t.co/WOzF1OhpSm

Disappointing actions from the @ukhomeoffice imposing barriers on inclusivity, equity, diversity & collaboration #wlgh18 @LSHTM #visas highlighted today by @wellcometrust on @BBCr4today - UK govt making it v. challenging for universities to work with many international colleagues

[Neena Modi @NeenaModi1]

Alas @MattHancock & @BBCr4today totally confuse community care with preventive health! Policy makers don’t yet comprehend that economic, environmental & societal conditions, esp in early life, are the main determinants of health, not healthcare @Medact @PHE_uk @EurAcademyPaeds
