For those who don't fully understand what is up with the NHS, here is a thread for you that might help.
I'm a consultant physician working as a doctor in the NHS in Yorkshire and Wales for 32 years now. I have experienced the NHS at its best (2008) and its worst (2022).

The reality of Intensive Care at the moment…
A Covid patient admitted to ICU means another patient cannot have their brain tumour operated on or their stomach cancer removed.
It’s one patient in, one patient out.
Some Covid admissions are avoidable. #GetVaccinated

Desperately desperately desperately understaffed due to the NHS Covid app telling Covid-negative, asymptomatic, double-vaxxed doctors to go into isolation for up to 10 days at a time.
This cannot go on.

We need more than “kindness”. We need to pour money into new posts. We need to obliterate registrar bottlenecks. We need to completely overhaul recruitment methodology. We need more flexible training & genuine, measurable improvement to doctors working lives. – at Leeds, England
#Juniordoctors are now facing a triple whammy, exams postponed, recruitment cancelled and formal training suspended, yet we need them more than ever to go over the trenches and face the fire, to #SaveLives, let's be kind to them and look out for their #Wellbeing @NHS_HealthEdEng
So grateful for the 1st dose of the #PfizerBioNTech vaccine. On the same day the #OxfordAstraZeneca vaccine was approved. A massive thank you to all the scientists, doctors, nurses, HCAs, admin staff and of course, the volunteers, who made these vaccines safe for us @NuTHResearch

We had to phone people to say their loved ones were dying and they couldn’t see them.
We had to treat terrified patients while wearing masks, visors, gowns, and aprons.
I’ve never seen friends and colleagues look so exhausted and broken.
... I don’t know what else to say.

Great to read about participants’ experience of the Covid19 trial I helped with this week - a tad manic vaccinating almost 110 participants (thank you!) a day but proud to have been a small part of it and work with such a lovey team! @chrisjaduncan @davidashprice @NuTHResearch

An amazing group of nurses organised a surprise hen do because I was upset mine has been postponed. They are a very busy team on a very busy ward and still took the time out to make me feel special. This is why I love ward 33, love haematology, love the NHS. #nhs @kathrynmcrae5
