How's NHS doing at moment in relation to omicron and other pressures? New thread based on latest data. Note that we prefer to use numbers of covid-19 patients in hospital, rather than new admissions, as two days more up to date and better represents whole picture...1/19
Some really interesting findings on the impact on vaccination on infectiousness 👇🏽
The study we've all been waiting for
Using data from >50,000 #COVID19 contacts, vaccinated people are less infectious EVEN with Delta, and EVEN if CT count is the same
Also, kids appear less infectious and less susceptible, including with Delta

COVID Update: I’ve had dozens of people ask me with Delta here, what is the COVID end game.
Because I don’t know, I interviewed 6 experts on various elements— variants, vaccines, global, policy, ev biology & historical precedence.
Will break it down here. 1/

'Get the vaccine, just honestly, get the vaccine.' 💉
28-year-old Henry spoke to @BBCHughPym from his hospital bed after getting seriously ill with coronavirus. He describes feeling like he was dying and his advice to others is to get the #NHSCOVIDVaccine.

A plea: this account is run by frontline NHS staff. After the scenes today in Trafalgar Square our inbox is distressing. You don’t know how much it meant to all of us to see the tidal wave of support on the hashtag #gotyourbackNHS. If you support us please follow and RT 💙💙💙

If you’re sceptical about Covid vaccines working, please take a moment to look at this graph.
And please chat to an NHS nurse or doctor if you’re still unsure about getting vaccinated. We’d love to help 🙏
After a break of nearly 2 years I am completing my MSc dissertation in Healthcare Leadership! Excited to be looking more closely at my leadership and psychological well-being of staff in remote teams!

“If you film an empty corridor at 9pm & say this proves this hospitals are empty, it is a lie...You are not only responsible for changing behaviour which will kill people, but it is an insult to staff working their guts out on critical care.”
So true 👏

I witnessed a really powerful moment today in court. A judge read the harrowing words of a junior doctor to a man who had been on a mass protest against lockdown.

There are no ITU beds in the valleys. So you might be 23 and invincible if you get COVID but what if you crash your car? Or a friend takes an overdose or a parent needs emergency surgery? Guess what! No beds for you either. And THAT’S how this affects everyone. Rant over.

Our latest statement on #intensivecare staffing, bed occupancy & capacity to support those reporting ICU data across the UK.
It also provides the media with a better understanding of what the data means to help make their reports on ICU beds clearer.

Saddened to see messages on social media suggesting our wards are empty and pressures we say we’re facing are fictional. We’re treating ⬆️ No’s of pts with COVID-19 @QAHospitalNews. Our staff are doing an incredible job under a great deal of pressure. Please don’t disrespect them
