OK, let's take look at @RoyalMail #Health (no @Twitter handle as yet):

royalmail.com/health

It's apparently "a new #business division working across the #healthcare industry, including local #pharmacies"... Image
...though its main partners at this point appear to be @Pharmacy2U - of which more later - and "exciting new service" #Charac, an app & #SaaS platform which advertises on @facebook, @instagram and @LinkedIn but again doesn't (yet) have a @Twitter handle:

charac.co.uk Image
...that's 👆 #Charac's front page, BTW; the pitch it makes to #pharmacies themselves 👇 is somewhat different:

charac.co.uk/pharmacies/

I dunno about you, but "Creating new ways to make more money that isn’t dependent on NHS finance" sounds a lot like #marketing to patients... Image

🧵 #Overdose deaths hit record highs last year. Medications like buprenorphine cut the risk of death in half. But many pharmacies don’t provide it, saying they fear a @DEAHQ investigation -- like what happened to Martin Njoku. My latest for @NPR @KHNews buff.ly/3H5FQhK
2/ As a pharmacist, Martin Njoku wanted to help those hit by the #opioidepidemic. But a few years after he began providing medications for #addiction, @DEAHQ raided his pharmacy & accused him of furthering the very ailment he set out to treat.
3/ DEA pointed to "red flags" at Njoku's pharmacy: ppl getting Subutex—considered easier to abuse than Suboxone— ppl driving from far away, paying in cash, etc. But @Formanir @hfdrlaw explained that's what happens when Suboxone is too expensive & access to treatment is scarce.

According to the #pharmacy council @OfficialSAPC over 90 #pharmacies have been destroyed and looted beyond revival, with KZN being the hardest hit. @SECTION27news @HealthZA @kznhealth @molelekwa98
Among the looted items are #COVID19 #vaccines and scheduled medicines, which when used without proper pharmacist counselling on storage and dosage may result in harm to one’s health. @CovidCommsSA @CovidSupportSA @HastSig @PHMSA1 @CovidCoalition @MSF_southafrica @RHAPnews
The @OfficialSAPC urge those who looted these #medicines to not use them or give to others but rather return them to their nearest pharmacy for proper disposal. We caution the public to only source medicines from legitimate health establishments such as pharmacies.

Les masques tombent ! La grande distribution a stocké des CENTAINES DE MILLIONS de masques CHIRURGICAUX pendant que les soignants (médecins, infirmières, aides soignants, pharmaciens, preparateurs...) se sont vu distribuer depuis des semaines ces masques au compte goutte 1/n
pour raison de pénurie et que le reste des français n'avait pas accès a ces masques !
225 millions chez carrefour (bfmtv.com/economie/alexa…) 100 millions chez intermarché et pareil pour les autres, be vous laisse chercher les chiffres mais ils sont tellement vantards et fiers 2/n
qu'ils ne s'en cachent même pas. Auchan a même avoué avoir des stocks de FFP2
francebleu.fr/infos/economie…
La santé de tous nos soignants et de tous les français restés en première ligne et de leurs familles ne vaut donc pas grand chose devant le profit de la grande distribution 3/n
