Really looking forward to this week's #DGUM exam at @ApothecariesLDN Wed/Thu. We examiners look forward to supporting trainees, and promise *no* trick questions about how to use this apparatus Image
All done. Calm, orderly, 3rd #pandemic sitting. I hope our candidates had a positive experience and will visit @ApothecariesLDN again soon Image
Not every doctor gets to take exams in the @ApothecariesLDN Hall where @agathachristie @JohnKeatsBot and #ElizabethGarrettAnderson qualified. Eat your heart out @RCPhysicians

"Prof Sackell" calling @BylineTimes @NafeezAhmed. May I correct you slightly? First my name. Secondly, I signed this letter first drafted by @rwjdingwall - all my requested edits were made before publication.
Here's link to the piece bylinetimes.com/2021/07/08/gov…
And here is my follow up piece in @Daily_Express. It is important not to forget where we are trying to get to tho the journey will be long and complex express.co.uk/comment/expres…

1/3 If we're testing #ivermectin for #COVID19, it exposes the scandal that #ivermectin is not licensed for routine use for #scabies outbreaks in the #UK. We know it works for #scabies (unlikely in #COVID19). It's on the @WHO #EssentialDrugs list! @UniofOxford @CMO_England
2/3 .. our #scabies research explores why this local and global #NeglectedTropicalDisease gets missed in #UK #carehomes. Take a look here at our research. Why aren't we using #ivermectin routinely? @UniofOxford @NIHRresearch
3/3 so #ivermectin is being trialled in #COVID19 while remaining unlicensed and hard to obtain for #scabies? Hope those @OxfordMedSci scientists will join us #scabies folk to get this changed #Principles

1/2 #Vaccines are amazing. They make normal activities - like #carehome and #amateur community #singing #choirs safe. Not just business. So what do you make of @DCMS ban >6 in new guidance? #COVID19 @DCMSArts
2/3 There is probably no easier setting for doing an #outbreak investigation than a #choir. @MakingMusic_UK & others have well developed risk assessments. Ask @BarbaraEifler Around 300k people sing weekly - more than football (more women tho....)
3/3 my earlier analysis on #choirs #sti even more relevant in vaccine era. It's time to realise the benefits of our #vaccination programme for #singing - a low cost and life enhancing activity open to all! jackiecassell.com/choirs-coronav… (also listen at 17 mins bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…)

1/3 In today's @Daily_Express I argue it's time to end #criminalisation and #coercion in managing #Covid19. We must return to the old ways of doing #publichealth - #inform #support #consent - they serve us well... express.co.uk/comment/expres…
2/3 #Vaccination doesn't only change what we can do - it changes the decision space. Let's think beyond emergency response, and build the trust and support needed for #ResidualCovid - new trade-offs.
3/3 and apologies to @adph should have said local authorities working with (not under) PHE. End.

1/3 This thread sets out a very important and basic point about diagnostic #tests. As #COVID19 cases decline, a higher % of positive results will be false positives. Big issue for #schoolsreopeninguk
@educationgovuk needs to....
2/3 @educationgovuk needs to state clear #exitstrategy for #covid19 testing in #schools to retain trust in a system that was always going to be fragile.
3/3 This will become an issue first in grammar schools and leafier boroughs where homes are less crowded, more #Zoomocrat educated parents. A guide to basics on #falsepositive #COVID19 tests here. #schoolsreopeninguk jackiecassell.com/moonshot-moons…
