I'm a Professor of Cardiology with 23 yrs clinical experience (11 as a consultant). I get invited all over the world to give lectures and teach and I'm involved in international guidelines for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
I would be a danger to patients working in primary care as a GP equivalent despite this experience. Someone with only a two years Masters and no medical training has no role seeing acutely unwell patients in Primary Care.

Reminder why it was so important for Scotland to have alcohol policy aimed at reducing inequality. See trends in most deprived 10% during "pile high sell cheap" 1990s.@SARG_ScHARR @pmeierprof

Yes this is an alcohol harm crisis. It's the number ONE cause of death for working age adults: liver disease, heart disease, strokes, anxiety, depression, 7 cancers and another 50+ medical conditions. All this death and misery is avoidable & we know how. We need Gov action now.

Really interesting presentation from @Parvati_Howe on the acceptability of power strength alcohol products and pricing policies. Finding that a lot of people consume lower strength products and support pricing scaled by strength.

So @EastMidRailway , you need to do some serious training of your station staff at Sheffield about helping #wheelchair users! The guy who ‘helped’ me on to the 12:21 Leeds train was just rude! He acted like getting the ramp was an ordeal, then had a go at for not using… (1/2)
