Really hard listening to World At One #wato the mother of a teenage girl who developed anorexia during lockdown, was admitted to hospital spring 2021 where, due to covid, she spent 8 weeks in a hospital bed with no visitors and her condition worsened. So shocking
There will be hundreds if not thousands of stories like this. Her mother said she started extreme exercising because, when everything else was taken away due to lockdown, it was the only thing she could control
If I were @BorisJohnson @sajidjavid @RishiSunak I would spend hundreds of millions on child's mental health, right now. Otherwise it will cost the NHS billions in dealing with their problems in future years.
