“My baby had Covid and was fine” Did your baby tell you how their endothelial function, immune system & neurodevelopment are doing compared to baseline? Did they explain their risk profile for future disease? Or are you just guessing because they didn’t drop dead on the spot?

Today is #worldMEday and part of #MEawarenessweek I’ve had this horrific disease since I was 14yrs old. A fit, health and active teenager, until I got a severe gastric flu, and never recovered. For the last 7yrs in various ways my health has been declining, until near death

A great honour to share my thoughts on sugar, UPFs and addiction with @drchatterjeeuk Time to take this seriously especially for our children @lowcarbgp @DoctorTro @KenDBerryMD @FAS_TheCHC @FoodAddictionI1 @BittenJonsson @grantsnz @ProfTimNoakes @DoctorChrisVT
Have we become a bit too comfortable with sugar? Research suggests that up to 20% of adults, and increasing numbers of children, may be affected by food addiction, with real consequences for both physical and mental health. Yet the idea is still often dismissed, which can prevent people from getting the support they need. In this week's new episode of my 'Feel Better, Live More' podcast, clinical psychologist @drjenunwin shares simple, practical ways to better understand cravings, reshape your environment and regain a sense of control in today’s food landscape. I really feel this is a conversation we’ve been avoiding for far too long. My hope is that it brings some clarity, reassurance and practical support. Tune in to episode 652 of 'Feel Better, Live More', out now in all the usual places!

I wasn’t going to talk about this, but I thought it would have gone away by now and it hasn’t. And I know I am not the only one who has been shaken by it. We accept we have to do hard stuff in medicine, it’s what we do. But to know that absolutely no lessons have been learned from the pandemic and we are utterly expendable in the face of a public health issue, felt like a slap round the face.

The Covid Inquiry is clear: IPC guidance failed. Five key mistakes led to avoidable harm for healthcare workers and patients. We cannot afford to ignore this. Read the paper by @EvonneTCurran and our chair @alitwy 👉 shh-uk.org/five-ipc-mistakes… #SafeAir4All

I met up with a long time friend this week and his first words to me were "you look really well". I do. And I feel healthier than I have in two decades. I feel great. I've had nearly six and a half years without infection. He looked *awful*. 😥 The last time I had seen him was four years ago when he still looked OK, and his first words to me that day were, "you're not still wearing one of those things, are you?" 😔

Reading just heartbreaking stories of parents being hauled through social services /child protection proceedings for suspicions of fabricated illness, when their child has long covid, POTS or dysautonomia. Of course FII exists, and we must be an advocate for children. BUT so do children and teens with these illnesses. In their millions. Because of a pandemic virus. When did the medical profession become so utterly fixed in their beliefs? (I know, probably forever)

The Covid Airborne Transmission Alliance (CATA) has stood down. The Executive Team has completed its mandate from its 12 member organisations i.e. to represent them at the UK COVID-19 Inquiry. A copy of our final letter to members is attached. tinyurl.com/CATA-stands-down

More research about Long Covid’s impact on children. Yet still no clean air or IPC in schools….. H/T @DavidJoffe64 academicpedsjnl.net/article/… x.com/sunny_rae1/status/2014…
2023: I publicly warned at a WHO/4SD briefing that children WERE being damaged by COVID (incl subclinical ❤️ damage) & PH leaders needed to urgently invoke the PRECAUTIONARY PRINCIPLE & PH mitigations to protect a generation of kids. Ignored. Again ….1/ m.youtube.com/watch?v=K_d9Mv…

Schools guidance on supporting children with medical conditions is being updated for the first time in 10 years. Your response can help shape how children with epilepsy are kept safe, included and supported in education. It takes around 10 minutes: youngepilepsy.org.uk/get-inv…

The Inquiry recognised that reporting of HCW deaths under the RIDDOR Regulations for reporting occupational disease should be better. Sadly it didn't address the failure to report occupational infections which don’t cause deaths but leave HCWs crippled with Long-COVID. /End

Today, we've written to the Secretary of State and the UK's Health Ministers about the lack of progress on implementing the Leng Review into Physician Assistants and Anaesthesia Assistants. More than eight months on, key recommendations remain unfulfilled leaving patients unclear about who is providing their care. Doctors and patients deserve clarity.

"Chest tightness but no overt chest pain" that well known 100% specific differentiator of anxiety vs other causes I think day 1 of medical school you learn that 'chest tightness' can be absolutely anything. Colossal leadership failure and nobody will be held accountable.
🔴 Physician Assistant students strike again from GP land. This time they killed a high-risk patient who recently had a caesarean section and fobbed her off with an “anxiety” diagnosis 💀☠️ ⭕️ The lady had two fatal cardiac arrests and passed away. ⭕️ This PA student was only supervised by her PA mate. ⭕️ No mention of any GP oversight. Basically, the blind leading the blind.

For anyone in doubt as to why I am emailing GP Surgeries across the UK, this is why I do it: "Hello, We just wanted to thank you for your email – we shared the campaign last week of the 4ts on our social media page, waiting room display and TV screens, and we do have blood glucose kits and urine tests for ketones in our clinical rooms. We had a two-year-old in this morning with mum that presented with the symptoms listed in the campaign and after the testing you mentioned done by the GP in the initial appointment, she has been diagnosed with diabetes and admitted to hospital. The awareness shared last week made the conversation much easier for mum and GP and highlights the importance of the work you are doing. We would like to wish you all the best with your campaign for Lyla’s Law, we will continue sharing awareness with our staff and patients, we have World Diabetes Day in the calendar for later on in the year too. Kind regards, xx" #LylasLaw #TestDontGuess #diabetes #T1D #fyp

The magical “aerosol” vanishing trick is now complete 🪄 Bang smack in the middle of the Meningitis outbreak in England, the WHO decided that was the perfect time to take their Meningitis page offline for 4 days… …and now it’s back, the word “aerosol” has magically vanished!
Aaarrrghh! The cover-up begins… The WHO page about Meningococcal Meningitis & its modes of transmission (including the word ‘AEROSOL’) has just been removed from their website. Original link: who.int/teams/health-product… Thankfully there’s an archived page: web.archive.org/web/20260127…
