The 10-year plan isn't a game-changer... the health secretary's resigned... and almost every part of the NHS is in dispute with the Government...
@BrineHealth delivers a reality check at NHSConfed Expo.
@JimBethell mourns the departure of "kick-ass" Wes Streeting.

I thought he was going to be. And he had a kickass attitude with the doctors. But attitude didn’t materialise into anything much.

A champion for health - but what's getting @BrineHealth excited at the prospect of a Andy Burnham as Prime Minister?
Steve remembers the first "devo deal" for health - which he thinks Prime Minister Burnham will lean into, should he become Prime Minister.

This was a lot of fun to-do. We need to stop writing big plans and strategies and doing endless restructuring and instead focus on delivering some core things that really matter to patients. The public want change

“They are both going to be improved”
@CMO_England suggests two areas where quality of healthcare seems to be rapidly increasing.
Cancer treatments are improving greatly with immunotherapy a game changer, and the ability of new technology to diagnose the disease early.
And with vaccine research growing following on from the pandemic, which will ensure that in the short-term future infectious disease and cancer treatments will be enhanced.

The Chief Medical Officer for England, @CMO_England suggests that whilst recent public health achievements include a reduction in smoking, that the healthcare sector has failed when it comes to childhood obesity.
He suggests that current attitudes to the issue are morally unreasonable.

“There is an important role for regulation”
@CMO_England suggests why politicians have a part to play when it comes to fighting childhood obesity, with many in the food production industry happy for regulations to be put in place, in order to create a level playing field.

“Air pollution is something we certainly could do better”
@CMO_England suggests that air pollution is an issue that needs work on, but that there has been progress made… for example through the gradual tightening of regulations cars have become significantly less polluting right across Europe.
