Traitor? Elon, if you don’t understand that defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe, maybe you should leave it to those of us who do.

Thanks @DonnellyStephen for listening to the @IrishCancerSoc and prioritising investment in cancer in Budget 2025. It will make a big difference to people with cancer and their families across the country.

This is a very positive budget and milestone not previously seen in the soon to be 20 years of @HSELive There is always a challenge, always a growing demand but now through 24/25 investment it’s less about money and more about reform. @roinnslainte @DonnellyStephen @MaryButlerTD @ColmBurkeTD Also @HSELive really strong support in budget 25 for disability @rodericogorman @AnneRabbitte @dcediy

Beyond thrilled to see #FreeContraception being rolled out for this cohort; looking forward to seeing it rapidly expanded to all, including those with complex medical needs as a priority.

It is ironic how some of the same people who tell us to follow the science when it comes to vaccines would prefer we didn’t when it comes to nuclear. irishtimes.com/opinion/we-re…

A very good thread from @ChrisCEOHopson
Another, new, update thread on where the NHS is up to, given fast moving situation. Draws on latest performance and covid data and recent intelligence from trust CEOs. Also looks at staff absences, access to tests and NHS work to create extra surge capacity. Happy New Year! 1/25

I don't often plug our interviews on Twitter. But this is a calm, sobering assessment from a respected health administrator which deserves as wide a listenership as possible.
Colette Cowan, CEO, UL Hospitals spoke to @BryanNewsatOne today about the plans in place at University Hospital Limerick to manage wave four of #Covid19. Listen back 📻 bit.ly/3DABQUv

Wondering if you should use #antigen test for #COVID19? The ‘how to’ and ‘do and don’t’ advice all in one place with useful links to report results from @HSELive. So many questions answered on this webpage. www2.hse.ie/conditions/covid…
