"To create a healthier world, our view is
that policy makers and civil society must
do what health professionals do, and
that is to prioritise outcomes related to
health and wellbeing. That’s a world that
we should unequivocally argue for, and
work to achieve." Kamran Abbasi #BMJ

The number of people who are neither treating the promised vaccine as the answer to all our prayers nor denouncing it as a conspiracy seems to be alarmingly small.

By coincidence: exactly 6 years ago today, as Vice President of the USA, Joe Biden sent this note to his staff.
I presume in the background, thoughts of his first wife & daughter who died long ago; or his son, who died of cancer just a few months after this note.
Worth reading.

Need a knack that mitigates against continual improvement becoming continual reminder of things I should have done.

"When people feel like they’re a valued part of a community effort, they're more likely to engage with helping others in the community. In the current pandemic, this type of community support will be essential to the success of pandemic management."

This is pretty cool from @LidlGB, but I wonder who'll be first to do away with them altogether? It pains me that the first thing I do when I leave my local @Tesco is put my receipt in the bin. thetimes.co.uk/article/small…

In the craziness of the sponsored 24hr #Musicathon, we didn’t manage to get this tweet out. Just 24 hrs before the event kicked off, 2 Coleridge Y8 students led a Samba workshop for Ridgefield Primary students. Well done, Naomi and Lola! (Both completed the Musicathon, too!)

Hi @tesco, @sainsburys, how about helping us out and making loose fruit and veg cheaper than the packaged alternatives?! #WarOnPlastic @itsanitarani
