Killing off Covid-19 looks like pie in the sky, so we must learn to live with it

Does the Government have a clear long-term goal on ­tackling coronavirus? I’m not sure. Oh, yes, they want fewer infections, fewer admissions to ­hospital, fewer patients in intensive care and fewer deaths. We all do. But do they aim to eliminate … Read More

President Donald Trump defiles everything he touches. At the end of June he announced that the US government had bought up all the coronavirus vaccines that would be produced in America. No one else could get a look in. His presumptive … Read More

The facts don’t lie about black newborn babies – and they horrify me

Yes, Boris and his sidekick Matt Hancock have made glaring and costly mistakes during the Covid pandemic. Their mantra, “We follow the science”, is hollow and at times dishonest. Follow the science they haven’t. The most glaring example of not following the science came … Read More

If you eat well, you’re much more likely to feel happy and well too

Most of us believe we are what we eat. But have you ever thought you could ‘feel’ what you eat? As Fiona Godlee, editor of the BMJ, says, mood can ­improve as the result of eating foods that reduce inflammation … Read More

‘If you’re lonely you will find it difficult to stop smoking’

What with isolation, shielding and quarantine there’s been a frightening increase in the number of people feeling lonely, brought on or made worse by the pandemic. In fact there’s been an epidemic of loneliness. According to the Office for National … Read More
