Great news! NHS scarlet fever pages have been updated to include images on black and brown skin nhs.uk/conditions/scarlet-fe…
Can the NHS website be updated as a matter of urgency to include images of rashes on black and brown skin? Public health teams are needing to develop their own info to include these. As I type these words I think how sad it is that I am even having to ask for this #healthequity

The scarlet fever rash is historically described as bright red, but on people of color this can clearly be inaccurate; the rash may simply be flesh colored along with the characteristic sandpapery feel and appearance. #Pediatrics #MedTwitter #ScarletFever

Public health teams have gone above and beyond over the last two years to support their communities through the pandemic. Councils are calling on Government to commit to long term funding increases so public health teams can retain expertise & keep delivering essential services.
The #PublicHealthWorkforce shared they are feeling under-valued & stressed, suffering from a lack of work-life balance. But there are solutions to support them. This is the 2nd in a series of infographics summarising our research findings: ow.ly/kuJP50KrSub
