Amazing news announced today that modulators will continue to be available for all our eligible patients. #lifeunlimited
Today, NICE have given approval for the life-changing #cysticfibrosis modulator drugs to be made available on the NHS in England. This follows many years of campaigning by Cystic Fibrosis Trust and people right across the CF community.

Whooping cough (pertussis) cases are currently very high, & the disease can be life-threatening for newborn babies. If you're pregnant, it's important to take up the #Pertussisvaccine when offered. It helps protect your baby in their first weeks of life ukhsa.blog.gov.uk/2024/04/12…
