A few topics discussed today: 📌Patient involvement in trial design and grant applications 📌Research ethics and responsible trial conduct 📌Trial design for non-malignant hematological disorders Interested to join CRTH 2026? Applications are now open until September 16th. Don't miss out! 👉 eha.fyi/CRTH

As William Waldegrave wrote about his anti-EU colleagues before Brexit happened: "[They] will be bereft if we ever leave that convenient recipient of blame; for them, all-powerful external enemies fill a vital psychological need."
This idea from senior Conservatives that someone else is really running the country (the Deep State, Islamists, people with podcasts etc) is a reminder of how Brexit created a vacancy for governing parties looking for someone else to blame

Really enjoying dinner conversation tonight revolving around whether a lettuce will last longer than Truss. What about a banana? Potato?

What a great day for women’s sport. From Tour de France Femmes to England bringing it home! Women’s football wasn’t on TV when I was growing up, loving this. #Lionesses

I was just told I need a third primary dose of the COVID vaccine. This guidance was published in September! The booking website won’t let me make an appointment as I’ve ‘had all doses I need’. I’m a doctor doing a PhD in immunology and can’t work this out - it needs to be easier.

Today I decided a tube journey with my baby was the equivalent of a baby sensory class and I think it’s a sign I need to go back to work asap

Also love that @AnnaKiesenhofer tweets an analysis of body temperature and cycling output
Could @HawleyMO stop posturing and focus on Missouri's shocking vaccine roll-out? My 92yo grandmother in St Charles still waiting, with MO last in the US for vaccination rates
Josh Hawley in this Congress has voted against all the Biden nominees and against the waiver for Lloyd Austin to serve as defense secretary. His lone two 'yes' votes so far have been to throw out the electoral results of Arizona and Pennsylvania.

Worried about imminent need for parenting skills given that @JamieWaldegrave and I managed to lose baby Waldorf’s sonogram photo within ten minutes of being given it. Last seen somewhere on Tottenham Court Road.

Good news that people who are pregnant and breast feeding can now receive both the Pfizer vax and Oxford/AZ #CovidVaccine under @MHRAgovuk update today. Next step: inclusion in clinical trials and better data! #breastfeeding #oxfordvaccine #pregnancy gov.uk/government/news/oxfor…

Peak COVID Christmas - extremely complicated cooking and drop off schedule to cook and deliver food to those we can’t spend today with. Looking forward to a brighter vaccinated 2021!
