One year ago today the NHS made history — when Margaret Keenan received the first COVID-19 jab at @nhsuhcw, launching the NHS vaccination programme.
Thank you to colleagues across the NHS and everyone involved in the vaccine rollout to date! 💙 #ThankYouNHS
I’m in full support of @NHSEngland’s efforts to get pregnant women the right info when it comes to coronavirus vaccines.
I’m relieved to be double vaccinated myself and if you or someone you know is hesitant then this article may be useful to you! 💙👩🍼

My ICU is full of covid. Again. This time it’s different though. Full of unvaccinated people. I cannot say this strongly enough. PLEASE get vaccinated.
New data shows the overwhelming majority of pregnant women hospitalised with COVID-19 have not had a jab.
Jacqueline Dunkley-Bent, @TeamCMidO, is urging expectant mums to get the COVID-19 vaccine to keep themselves and their babies safe.

It is the 19th day in a row that I've seen ≥1 unvaccinated pregnant women admitted to the ward with #COVID19.
It's so important pregnant women #GetVaccinated
Our real life experience reflects the data, pregnancy ⬆️ risk of:
⬆️ ITU admission
⬆️ intubation
⬆️ pre-term birth
We recommend that all pregnant women should get vaccinated against COVID-19. The RCOG and @MidwivesRCM have updated the decision aid and Q&As to help pregnant women make an informed decision about the COVID-19 vaccine: https://t.co/z5d3FTJ2lI
‘If you are over-18 and eligible, please do go and be jabbed - the vaccine is the only way to see us through this pandemic’

In brief, you can have any of the three vaccines currently available in the UK (Astra Zeneca, Pfizer/BioNTech or Moderna) while #breastfeeding. See link for full details.
Feeling emotional to finally have had my Covid vaccination. So grateful for the NHS and every single person who has contributed to the development of vaccines globally. It's quite a mind-blowing achievement when you stop to think about it. Feeling incredibly lucky.
Privileged to be working alongside nurses like @Ethel_Changa and @jenniehall111 on the national Covid vaccination prog. Happy Nurses Day to all those working tirelessly up and down the country to protect us all - thank you. #IND2021
How do you tell a Cold vs. COVID ? You definitely have a cold if you have a runny nose, sneezing or swollen glands. Also highly likely to be a cold if you DONT have a severe headache or fatigue. Stay safe keep logging. https://t.co/nidBvAxMeu via @YouTube
Hi @UniofHerts my little boy had to visit Lister hospital yesterday, but fortunately we were treated by some wonderful staff including one of your student nurses, who was brilliant. She was incredibly caring and professional and she definitely provided a service!

Thank goodness for @RobBiddulph... His amazing drawing vids gave me a few minutes peace today. Super proud of my 4 year old for doing these - he's never drawn anything like this before.

It's an extraordinary coincidence. But for me, the most powerful bit of the original tv prog was this:
This is our 2018 simulation of the difference that everyone washing their hands 5-10 times a day might make to the spread of a flu-like virus.
See how much time it buys us?
