Today is #InternationalWomensDay

Progress on #GenderEquality in health care is too slow.
Women have distinct & changing health needs at different stages of their lives. Health care should be easy to access, fair & tailored to meet each woman’s unique needs & circumstances.

Grateful to be interviewed for this deep dive by the BBC's Nick Triggle into the threadbare state of NHS palliative care services.

4 in 10 hospitals don't even have a 7-day palliative care service.

This is a travesty, @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social. (1/2)

It matters that scientists speak out against what is being done to US science.

Staying silent is neither "objective" nor "staying out of politics".

Silence now *is* political - it supports the status quo, says "nothing to worry about".

We need to sound the alarm.
