@JanjuaAdam Seems relatively split responses here as to who is responsible for actioning. Putting aside who may be best to oversee pain management.

Who is *contractually* obliged currently: secondary care.

In reality: primary care are doing this work unfunded.

@O2CityHall do you know the stage times for @bellesglasgow tonight?

[Tom Gorman @tom__gorman]

@UKTVPlayHelp Okiedokie - thanks for the quick response!

[Tom Gorman @tom__gorman]

@UKTVPlayHelp help! Can't watch The Bill or other programmes. Plays then hits the first ad break which is blank screen and doesn't progress. This is on Chromecast (latest firmware & after reboot), tried casting for multiple iPhones. Working fine when watch direct on app.

GPs/epidemiologists: are there any groups you might consider 'at risk' for Covid19 that don't already qualify for current seasonal flu vaccine? (https://t.co/EnsA7e1AvB) I'm wondering about hypertension so grateful for thoughts on this/any others? @trishgreenhalgh @DrSdeG

[Tom Gorman @tom__gorman]

@trishgreenhalgh Sense of 'impending doom' - though not sure that one counts anymore at the moment!

[Tom Gorman @tom__gorman]

Anyone had experience using Ombea as part of a Zoom meeting? Just playing out some ideas for online seminars. @MrWillisICT any idea?

@trishgreenhalgh PS - AWESOME work you and team doing. If there is any rule for clinicians to help in any way do let us know - I'd be more than willing.

@trishgreenhalgh Remote triaging - ruling out sepsis/other serious illness by phone/vid (as this is really what we're trying to do and what is making GPs so uncomfortable right now when used to having eyeball and examination findings: a) how ill is this person, b) can they be managed without F2F

[Tom Gorman @tom__gorman]

@PeteDeveson @accuRx @drmdsmith @tommacjones Aye it's great! Trying to persuade colleagues to give it a go, those that have tried it are converted too

[Tom Gorman @tom__gorman]
