    A few months ago, a friend of mine began to experience some worrying symptoms; he was diagnosed by his GP with anxiety and depression, and prescribed antidepressants. Like around half of the UK population,[1] my friend identifies with a faith tradition, and when he felt hesitant about taking the medication he’d been prescribed, his first port of call was to talk to a faith leader he trusted, who listened to his concerns and encouraged him to pursue the treatment he had been prescribed by his doctor. My friend did feel able to begin his treatment, and is doing much better. Supporting peopl

    Austerity measures introduced by David Cameron’s coalition government after 2010 can be linked to tens of thousands of additional deaths, according to a damning new study. A paper published by researchers at the University of York concluded that reductions in funding to health can be linked to an extra 57,550 fatalities. Researchers looked at the healthcare spending of the Conservative and Liberal Democrat government after 2010. The researchers said the results of their paper confirmed what had been reported in previous studies. But the conclusions of causal impact of socia

    The authors argue that the Government should delay complete re-opening until everyone, including adolescents, have been offered vaccination and uptake is high, and until mitigation measures, especially adequate ventilation (through investment in CO2 monitors and air filtration devices) and spacing (e.g, by reducing class sizes), are in place in schools. In addition to the authors, this letter to The Lancet has been signed by over 120 scientists and Patient Safety Learning’s Chief Executive Helen Hughes.

    Good health is not simply an output of a fair economy. A healthy population is one of the nation’s most important assets: a vital input into a strong economy that improves people’s wellbeing, their productivity and their ability to participate in society. But how do we measure the health of the nation? The ONS has launched an ‘experimental’ version of its health index, which was proposed in 2018 by the then Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Dame Sally Davies, and it is currently open for public consultation before being finalised in 2021.
