This week @nicolafrichards asked minister @NeilDotObrien to confirm that any national expansion of Hep C testing will include HIV & Hep B too.
It's cheaper, more effective & de-stigmatising to combine testing. We can’t afford to waste any opportunities to test for all three.

ALT Figure 2. Discharge from ICU by Day 28. Shown is the cumulative percentage of patients who were discharged from the ICU by day 28 (a secondary outcome in the trial). The length of ICU stay was compared in the framework of a competing-risk model, with death considered as a competing event. For secondary outcomes, the widths of the confidence intervals have not been adjusted for multiplicity and may not be used in place of hypothesis testing.

Just got home to see that one of my places of work is on fire . Lit and fanned by very few of those who also work there . But ignited by those who hate the truth being told and use hate to weaponise truths delivery . What a sorry mess we are in . . . a very sad day for the UK

How about some essential balance ? Just like Gary this bloke is sometimes employed by the BBC for his respected expertise . He too presents his views publicly . Just wondering if anyone in the government wants to retrospectively kick off about these tweets ? Nah, don’t suppose so

Nurses are striking because people are dying
The Government is to blame. If you agree and you support the nurses reply with a 💙.

Politics for another day.
Stepping down from an all-consuming role is hard and decompression takes time. @NicolaSturgeon has done one helluva shift.
I wish her well for the future.

That was a truly remarkable resignation statement by Nicola Sturgeon. Whether or not you back her ideas and convictions, she has been one of the most important politicians of this generation. Her call for less irrationality and hysteria in politics should be heeded
