It’s #ClinicalTrialsDay which is at the apex of evidence-based medicine. There’s great momentum towards making clinical trials more representative of the people who have most to gain and it’s an exciting time for primary care in this space too #healthequity #clinicaltrials #HECT

Thank you, @willdalrymple.bsky.social.

Even if it's not possible for this Labour government to feel shame, it's still good to see you articulating the collective revulsion of regular people up and down this country.
