@UKMillinerGuild thank you for the bag of scraps - we made some Hogwarts inspired curtains

Some absolutely blinding papers in this weeks 🔥new and noteworthy 🔥 section of the @DFTBubbles rapid review of #COVID19 in children! Huge seroprevalence studies Multi-national cohort studies Transmission in schools We've got it all, right here! dontforgetthebubbles.com/evidence-summa…

To my fellow humans - ride the waves when they come, rest when they are calm and keep looking to the horizon. 19/19 #COVID19 #leadership #resilience

This is causing lots of distress for staff as well - the cost of COVID on all healthcare staff, on all patients, on all family members of staff and patients is hard to measure and hard to witness. latimes.com/opinion/story/…

Do you work with children with medical complexity? @Col_Partnership wants to understand your learning needs so they can develop the right resources. Can you spare a few minutes to share your experiences of working on the frontline? 👇 Take the survey: surveymonkey.co.uk/r/MedComColab

I know it gets harder as the weeks go on, but PLEASE #StayAtHome this weekend (except for essential purposes ie food/medicine and exercise). You are making a difference and saving lives. Let’s stick with it for a bit longer to get this virus properly under control. Thank you 🙏

Made my first video! The full video here youtu.be/MBgPgqtmhuA - made for our staff but I hope might help others working coping at this difficult time in and outside healthcare. @m_sheppard85

Reading this in a pub? Showing the virus what for? You've misunderstood. In times of terrorism, go to the pub to show the enemy that unbeatable British spirit! In a pandemic, do not go to the pub, because the enemy might follow you home and kill your nan. This tweet was free.

This account is usually about ambulatory/acute frailty care, but for the duration of the #COVID19 response I've made it available to @AlysColeKing (an NHS consultant psychiatrist with huge expertise in HCW wellbeing) from which to share quality-checked resources - @DrLindaDykes

In 2017 #NHS staff made a video which went viral w 11 million views. Tories blamed it for their poor showing. Heres another video, made by NHS staff. It’s already had 1.5 million views. Let’s get it up to 11,000,000 and hope it has the same effect. Pls RT

I am endlessly impressed by the level of care, sensitivity and nuance medics bring to making decisions about the care of very ill children #appm2019

Our recent report revealed that there are too few children’s #PalliativeCare consultants in the sector. @RCPCHtweets says that 25-45 more are needed.
