Here's my story about Jesse Jackson. In 2012, I was offered an interview with him for the Evening Standard. Of course, I accepted. Who would turn down a chance to meet a historic figure who had been a friend of Dr Martin Luther King? more follows...

We remain concerned about the inappropriate substitution of doctors with non-medically qualified staff. We’re exploring how advanced practice roles are being used by NHS employers. To help with this, we’re asking UK doctors and medical students to complete our advanced practice survey. Make sure your voice is heard 👇surveymonkey.com/r/MVXCB99

Transfixed last night by the wit, wisdom, warmth & humanity of @MichaelRosenYes on stage at the @OxfordPlayhouse performing Getting Through it, his new & wonderful one-man show. Billed as a “double bill on love, loss & mortality”, it takes the form of two exquisite monologues, one on the death of his son, Eddie, from meningococcal septicaemia, the other on the long weeks he spent on on a ventilator in ICU with Covid-19. Michael confronts the topics we so often shrink away from with such wonderful frankness. Really, this is a show about how to live a life full of love & meaning, even after enduring the worst. It included, to my delight, his magnificent homage to the NHS, These Are the Hands, written for the NHS’s 60th anniversary 💙 See it if you can 💙 These are the hands That touch us first Feel your head Find the pulse And make your bed. These are the hands That tap your back Test the skin Hold your arm Wheel the bin Change the bulb Fix the drip Pour the jug Replace your hip. These are the hands That fill the bath Mop the floor Flick the switch Soothe the sore Burn the swabs Give us a jab Throw out sharps Design the lab. And these are the hands That stop the leaks Empty the pan Wipe the pipes Carry the can Clamp the veins Make the cast Log the dose And touch us last.

The NHS opt-out inpatient tobacco dependency service provides treatment on an equitable basis across deprivation quintiles, with the greatest proportion of patients making a supported quit attempt in the most deprived quintile. thorax.bmj.com/content/early/… @ThoraxBMJ
