Urgent call to @CARAWCD officials for an update on the child referral process! Suspended since Sep 9, set to resume on Oct 1. Yet, the only announcement is to "stay tuned" with no definite timeline. We need clarity. @BhavnaSaxena113@PMOIndia@narendramodi@PIBWCD@Annapurna4BJP
Reform led Nottinghamshire Council is blacklisting journalists for asking questions. An outrageous attack on press freedom. Sign the petition to get them to reverse this decision: https://t.co/h8Q8qz3kuB via @38degrees
Asthma management has changed!!! Updates made in November 2024. To summarise - moving from SABA alone to LABA plus Inhaled steroids! Be mindful of drug-drug interactions with antiretrovirals #BHIVA25
ISOSS data on characteristics of pregnant women living with HIV recently arrived in England 2018-23: they were more likely to be diagnosed in pregnancy and book late for antenatal care, but 90% virally suppressed at delivery #BHIVA25@emilycdema@ich_ppp@UCLchildhealth
The excellent @TC_Witzel argues the case to develop HIV testing strategies with the user at the core. A call for UK/European evidence for utilising social networks for HIV self-testing/sampling strategies. We need to do MORE to reach those not accessing testing services #BHIVA25
Nothing to see here, just two shameless morons enjoying a lovely day out looting. Best not share in case they get caught and sent to prison.
#FarageRiots
NHS staff across the country are, as always, playing their part in response to this week's riots.
But we shouldn’t let dedication to duty disguise the fact that seeing this flare-up of racism will leave many colleagues feeling afraid and unwelcome.

Sh!t just got real for the Nazis…
If they racially abuse a member of the London Ambulance Service they don’t get treated (unless a life-threatening emergency).
"Do you lose followers when you tweet anti-racism stuff or show solidarity with Muslim colleagues"
1. If they unfollow? Their loss, not mine
2. I tweet what I stand by-without hesitation or fear
3. Also, when you go past 50K followers, no one misses one or two bigots much
Glad this was said @AmandaPritchard
I would urge all senior NHS leaders to do the same
Wake up @NHSE_WTE
Its your duty -this is NOT ticking a box
Monday
If you are going to work & worried about the colour of your skin?
We must stand together.
Must.
#Mondayvibes 👊🏽
I’m proud that people from nearly 200 countries work in our NHS.
I completely condemn this racist violence and stand with our staff and the communities they live and work in. Thank you to our emergency services who are working hard to keep everyone safe.
Many people are going to be arrested and jailed for their involvement in these riots, but it is also vital that the authorities investigate those fanning the flames and encouraging them too. They are just as guilty…
A riot is not a protest.
A racist is not an activist.
A thug is not a patriot.
Far right extremism is precisely that.
Words matter.
Why are some in the media refusing to use them accurately?
