The all-party parliamentary group (APPG) on global health and security, has been told many of the countries were health workers come from are themselves now "๐ด๐ต๐ณ๐ถ๐จ๐จ๐ญ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ง๐ง ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ต๐ข๐จ๐ฆ๐ด"!

"โI think the public will be frustrated, bordering on angry, now with the prime minister for letting this drag on for so long,โ the Labour leader, Sir Keir Starmer, said on Friday after talks between the junior doctorsโ union and the government broke down again."

"The NHS is struggling and in crisis, but not because of a โsuper fluโ. It is struggling because flu season has come early, vaccines are offering partial protection from a mutated circulating strain, there has been poor take-up and inaccessibility of the seasonal flu vaccine, and it is a health service that hits a critical state every single winter."
