How about measuring our success in terms of what impact and legacy we create instead of individual accomplishments? 📈🌱

I’d really like to see the mission be “health” not the NHS. On education, his mission isn’t schools, it’s education. It’s crime, not the police. So why focus on an institution - the NHS - rather than an outcome - our health and well being?

Inequalities in health by social class have been documented for over a century – but what can we learn by analysing different theories of social class? Our latest blog, by Elise Whitley @UofGSHW, @gerrymccartney1 @UofGSPS, @melb4886 @UCL_IEHC, @MBenzeval https://t.co/prRWQjXGNV

The NHS was never meant to go it alone but be part of a broader system of support providing jobs, homes, and education.🧱

This is an idea that works better than others when talking about the wider determinants of health.

‘Public health is about all the factors that help someone live a healthy and happy life.’ Simply and beautifully put by @devisridhar

[Prof. Devi Sridhar @devisridhar]

This piece seems to have caused an uproar & those enraged don’t seem to have read it 😆- Guardian asked me to write where we’re at with COVID. I’m a public health academic & wrote an analysis. Hopefully useful to those wanting info. Have a lovely evening 😊https://t.co/t6sPSsyTLg

There is an urgent need to better understand, increase awareness of, and address the profound and deeply concerning changes in life expectancy trends seen across the UK over the last decade. Two new resources aim to do that. #LifeExpectancy #poverty #austerity

My comment on these figures on food insecurity:
"If 1 household in 7 is food insecure, society is failing in a fundamental way. These figures on food insecurity are all the more chilling because the problem is soluble."
