Watching and loving #MasterChefUK and cannot choose between the final five yet. I’d love to be a contestant but not convinced by my ability. Rambutans are definitely within my remit though! @JohnTorode1 @GreggAWallace How about an NHS based competition?

GM Faculty for Outbreak Preparations in collaboration with Regional ID unit?@NorthMcrGH_NHS I think we need a GM approach @MFTnhs @NCAlliance_NHS @LocalityNorth @UKHSA & more. Do we want this? In 2014 we were effective & cohesive for the EVD epidemic @Sentinal_1 let’s do this!

I miss you both. Not sure if the 2 years have flown or if they seem a lifetime away. Remember the wkend at FGH with Chris B sorting out our first case? Great teamwork.

@Sentinal_1 & @drjoelpaul -on this day (2nd April 2020) 2 years ago at the initial stages of COVID-19 (Or was it called novel CoV / Wuhan CoV back in March / April 2020 🤔). I knew this virus will have some impact globally, but not this huge😱

Dear Surgeons, Can we make a deal? If you're so sure it's not infected that you're not taking cultures, then don't start antibiotics. If aren't 100% sure, by all means go and start abx but *please please please* get us some cultures! Sincerely, Your ID friend

https://t.co/0pSND3ejl2 Love this. What fantastic role models. Many comments resonate with me. My diverse PG training has been predominantly with men; it’s made me stronger, strengthened my alpha 🙄, but…. @MFTnhs @NorthMcrGH_NHS

#thisisgoingtohurt I read it, I cried. I’m slowly watching it but it’s painful. I recognise toxic environments I worked in back in the day. I’m so glad I am in @NorthMcrGH_NHS I go to work happy.

I echo the comment by @jonsopel Not convinced seasonal working is an adequate solution to what’s happening in Ukraine and it’s fleeing population. Deleted tweet:
Is this real?

This does not inspire me. As an NHS ID consultant who had COVID in 2019, I’m triple vaxxd like all my colleagues. I also have annual flu jabs. Do you @RealSimonFox? Or because you’ve had flu do you abstain?

I don’t understand reluctance to Covid vaccination. Side effects from vaccination are lower than consequences of infection & #LongCovid; global use demonstrates efficacy & safety. Without being abusive or offensive, educate me please #vaccination #antivaxxers #VaccineSideEffects
