    Agree- only 1 in 3 IMGs members of trade union but are in greatest need of advocacy given disproportionate adversities at work - bullying, harassment, non-inclusion, blame. Need comprehensive induction to understand labyrinthine NHS environment, culture and how to seek support

    Sad end to the day: groups of thugs interrupt our filming for , are aggressive towards my producer, throw stuff at my cameraman and deliberately walk into me (a few times) while we worked. It was so unsafe by 6pm, that we had to pack up and leave. Such a shame.

    Dear strangers; Once again No, I'm not 'babysitting', I'm their father No, I didn't 'draw the short straw'. They're my children. I like them a lot No, it's not 'mum's day off'. It's the exact opposite, she's in work. Women can have official jobs these days. It's a thing.

    Heard back from an IMG posted to medical speciality on her first ever NHS job, at induction now, and HR refused her request to not be on call out of hours on her first day of NHS work after induction. They didn’t give her consultant’s email despite requesting prior to induction!

    Long thread, apologies. Increasingly concerned at the direction of primary care policy in England. Also, the lack of clear representation and apparent push-back. This isn’t aimed at clinicians. We know where the gaps are in leadership. First flu vaccines.

    A5. This is what I’d love to do. Back in the real world, I’ll be shouting about & celebrating all of the great innovations & initatives that are enabling NHS people to do their very best work. We need to share them, spread them & help them stick.

    Israel is in some ways an outlier among other countries for how poorly their school reopening effort went. The problem, experts say: lack of compliance on social distancing and masks + too broad of a reopening for the rest of society.

    The Israeli government, confident it had beaten the coronavirus, invited students back to school in May. Within days, infections were reported at a Jerusalem high school. It became the largest outbreak in a single school in Israel, possibly the world.

    The idea that General Practice can increase activity further (already back to normal), deal with more secondary care work, deliver QOF, cope with winter AND deliver the biggest flu campaign ever during a pandemic is beyond fantasy.
