🗞My latest for @theipaper: “In an editorial for the British Medical Journal (BMJ) last week, Dr Victoria Male, a lecturer in reproductive immunology at Imperial College London, wrote that it was “plausible” that menstrual changes could be triggered by an immune response to the vaccines, and called for more research to investigate further.
🍷Proposals to put pregnancy warnings on alcohol-free drinks are not just nonsensical, they’re yet another dangerous attempt to police our behaviour. The underlying message is that women can’t be trusted.
🗞My latest for @theipaper:

I know I’ve not been around much lately anyway, but I’m taking a proper couple of weeks off to rest, read, play board games and go for dog walks, in places with minimal phone signal, with my family ❤️
👨⚕️I recently had the honour of joining a Zoom panel discussion on the psychologisation of physical illness, alongside a group of doctors who have Long Covid or ME/CFS, and psychology professor Brain Hughes - produced by @gmedinger & Dr Asad Khan.
