The UK government is considering bringing back animal testing for cosmetics after a 23 year ban - this is an unnecessary step in the wrong direction! Please sign the petition below: "UK Parliament: Stop UK Govt Return To Animal Testing" chng.it/z4B2wY9t via @UKChange
The great majority of adults have been vaccinated. Four weeks working on a COVID ward makes stark the reality that the majority of our hospitalised COVID patients are unvaccinated and regret delaying. Some are very sick including young adults. Please don't delay your vaccine.

New paper in Mutagenesis shows that “confusing” carcinogen urethane, which often tests negative in vitro, can actually test positive in vitro under certain conditions bit.ly/3fElejn @DrUmeKulsoom @Jats49 @Garethj51282589 @DrJohnsonSwan @sherfern1 Funded by @NC3Rs

This approach, funded by an @NC3Rs strategic award, could be a valuable tool for identifying non-carcinogens at the in vitro stage, avoiding unnecessary animal testing. Find out more about the project and its outputs at bit.ly/3hEOtlL

Around 2.4 million people in the UK are waiting for #cancer screenings, tests or treatment. @macmillancancer say urgent GP referrals have fallen by 76% and are calling for action. Beth Purvis from #Elsenham had her operation cancelled and now her cancer is deemed as “incurable”.
