    As important for the Spanish 'flu as for COVID19. No fancy drugs or treatments needed, just simple  , , & . Everyone needs to play their part to protect the vulnerable & those more at risk- no special privileges!

    Spanish flu reccomendarions apply today more than ever. In particular “Do not think you are entitled to special privilege” and “Do not disregards the right of communities”

    My daughter wants room revamp to include (amongst many things) a 4-poster bed with curtains! Is this sort of help available for sale? Are there handy persons available to rent for small & frivolous DIY projects? Where do I find such talented ? 🤔

    The HSE is the same.... The edge of the door frame a particular favourite... 😂

    What I love about every code locked door in the NHS is the code is ALWAYS written somewhere on the actual door.

    Great thread on how COVID19 changed the way cancer clinical trials are run, often for the better & therefore should absolutely continue!

    Six Lessons from COVID-19: Running a cancer trials unit during this crisis has highlighted the following. (Remember that cancer has 50% mortality and kills 165,000 people every year in UK - likely more lethal than COVID).
