Some surprising NHS statistics (unless you follow me) Since 2019: - GP appoints increased by 5m to 31million/month - 111 calls total 1.7m/month - Ambulance calls and transfers unchanged 750k / month - A&E attendances 2.2million/month GPs providing more extra appts than total of all others combined
GPs not to blame 
35 million GP appointments a month 
5 million more than 2019
Ambulance 750000 calls
A&E 2.2million

I've recently joined this Bluesky and seem to have landed in the US. Nothing against Americans but is there anyone from anywhere else in the world on this platform?

Hi all, finally got myself a bluesky account after months in the doldrums because of that Musky smell on twitter. I hear this is a much friendlier community:)
