Dr Morris also draws our attention to TANGO2 deficiency disorder, where there is increasing evidence for the use of B Vitamins (notably vitamin B5) to address the significant cardiac decompensation associated with this diagnosis.

@KateBurkeNHS @CaraghScott The lack of non-clinical staff is exactly what means I, a paediatric consultant, regularly end up changing beds, cleaning floors, sorting out discharge letters and re-stocking equipment trolleys. Because until those things are done, I can’t do the job I’m supposed to do.

@HM_Passport Depends on the day, the mood of the person opening the form, the colour of the pen they use, and what socks they wear. As in - it’s clear as mud. Next question.

@HelenaLeggett Leave it out to get dry again! I’m not home enough to run outside whenever it rains. Put washing out in the morning and go to work….

@AlanaAlanat Really? Why? I’m curious-Do you leave it out to get dry again or bring it in wet? (Neighbours washing still out after 48 hours and on its second rain shower)

Both me and Steve thinking each other had submitted this one 😂 Neighbours currently have two pairs of jeans on the line, left out in the rain and then overnight. Current record is 3 days. No mad dash from them to get them off the line when it started raining either 🤔

Have become a bit obsessed with next door's washing. They leave it outside overnight and in the rain all the time. There's a batch of washing that's been outside for 3 days now, and it's rained every day. I don't understand why they don't bring it in.

RCPCH Scotland are calling on @scotgov to ban disposable e-cigarettes. Together with @ASHScotland and @RCPEdin, we are very concerned about the impacts of disposable e-cigarettes on the health of our children and young people and on the environment that they will inherit.
