Simple way to calculate alcohol units ⚠️ Units = alcohol % x volume (L) 🍾 (bottle): (12)% x (0.75)L = 9 units 🍺 (pint): (5)% x (0.6)L = 3 units 🍷 (glass): (14)% x (0.2)L = 2.8 units 🥃 (shot): (40%) x (0.025)L = 1 unit 🍾🍾🍾🍾 /wk = 36 units/wk

NEW: we need to talk about NHS staff retention. At a time when Britain’s healthcare system is acutely short of workers, *1 in 7* UK-trained doctors are practising overseas. No other developed country is like this, which immediately tells you there’s a problem. Let’s dig deeper:
