Final year UK med student here. Going public with some experiences of a compulsory online exam. Summary: students threatened with disqualification from becoming doctors (in a pandemic) due to problems with online exams (incl. some being forced to urinate in their seats)

This video from @educationgovuk uses the word "SAFE" six times. That is six lots of FALSE REASSURANCE. Negative results from a lateral flow test DO NOT make you safe. Please please please Government, get your heads round this FAST.

I’ve given half my life to medicine. And medicine wouldn’t give my husband a chest x-ray. Some kids stole a truck yesterday. And they almost stole my husband’s life alongside it. (1)

If a hospital was cutting corners in their medical care, we would be appalled & immediate action taken to stop this. Yet when science & researchers cut corners in methodology we might frown and highlight the bad practice, but rarely is action taken to prevent it happening again.
