I too had my chemo stopped due to Covid. Since restarting things have not gone well. The fact that private patients and some NHS were able to continue with Chemo clearly shows a gamble was made on some stage IV patients. #BBCPanorama

Delays to #cancer diagnosis and treatment due to #coronavirus could lead to thousands of excess deaths in the UK within a year, according to new research. Watch @BowelBabe's investigation on @BBCPanorama: Britain’s Cancer Crisis is on @BBCOne at 7.30pm.

The irony of having a national clap for the NHS less than 24 hours after scenes like this is not lost on us. So as well as clapping today, please RT and remind your friends and family that this is nowhere near over and we still need your help. #ClapForTheNHS

I wonder if some careful planning is needed when we start reducing lockdown, that before kids are sent back to school (increasing contact with more people) there is a grandparents day. When they can see close loved ones.

I've been corrected by an expert: dial 999, and wait until you're prompted by the operator before you press 55. I'm sorry for the mistake. If it's any comfort, the only time I've ever witnessed a situation like this, the police response was exemplary. #YouAreNotAlone

Calls to UK Domestic Abuse Helplines have more than doubled since the lockdown. Victims should know that if they are in danger, they can dial 999, then press 55 and remain silent. Police will know that the caller is in danger and cannot speak. Spread this wide.

We mashed up @BarackObama’s Bin Laden speech with @RealDonaldTrump’s al-Baghdadi speech, and the results are amazing

When Notre Dame was burning the world stopped. Billionaires and politicians emptied their pockets to help rebuild. Meanwhile the amazon has been burning for three weeks. The difference is, we don't get to build a new earth. When it's gone, it's gone. #PrayforAmazonas
