The SuppoRTT programme is still only being accessed by 23% of eligible trainees. So important that this is advertised regularly to trainees and trainers alike

🚨JUNIOR DOCTORS: a few points on Redeployment🚨: - Firstly, it should be voluntary. You should not be forced to move. - All other options should have been exhausted (eg: use of returners, utilisation of other staff within your Trust) (🧵1/9)

My PhD supervisor brought a whole box of transparent masks so I could lipread - completely unprompted. I'm crying - inclusivity done right

I’ve written to Mr Hancock to ask where the 5.7% figure comes from. It doesn’t quite fit with what we are being told by colleagues around the country nor what I’m seeing in my own hospital. We didn’t say 1 in 4 were off sick but did that they were self-isolating @RCPLondon
When asked about the Royal College of Physicians' report that a quarter of doctors were off sick, Matt Hancock says the "figures are wrong." He says the accurate figure is 5.7% of doctors not working, which is "a much more reassuring picture." #COVID19: trib.al/ZgxGSDh

Our partnership saw 2 patients face to face since Friday who lied about symptoms when screened for coronavirus prior to appointment. Both tested positive. It’s happening a lot at the moment as some people just want to be seen. Patients: think before risking NHS lives @TeamGP – at Saint Helens, England
