Hearing from friends working in the NHS that their kids are begging them not to go to work because of planned protests outside their hospital. Which would put them at risk. And i am so, so very angry. This is SO unfair and wrong.

It’s induction day for many doctors changing jobs and the first day of doctoring for the freshly minted ones. I’ll share this evergreen gem from Dr Philip Lee to get you all in the mood.

Please get vaccinated if you’re pregnant. And please get your children all their jabs.
