Pleased to see our research by conor mallucci & Michael Jenkinson published in The Lancet today. All patients having new brain shunts should have Bactiseal as standard of care to reduce infection risk. Hoping SBNS will support this.

Is it just me... or does this sound absurd? Hospitals are struggling financially and given emergency government loans... which they then have to pay interest on back to the government 🤔 bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Extra 6k deaths than usual & 3.5k were COVID-19. The numbers dying as a result of COVID-19 is high. This is likely to be due to people dying in community (thus not counted in numbers) but also people not going to GP/A&E with potentially treatable symptoms bbc.co.uk/news/health-52…

If this is true then I worry we are looking at a very slippery road ahead for the NHS. It’s is completely against the founding principles of the NHS and will ultimately, in my opinion, lead to a US style two tier healthcare system. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…
