the @ASA_UK complaint I made was upheld about Do Health @drchatterjeeuk. Commercial screening brings false positives, false reassurance, overdiagnosis. Will the @gmcuk act on the dozens of drs making false claims and have commercial conflicts of interests?

It's linked to lots of serious conditions, sadly.

Indeed. Some viruses are particularly prone to do this, e.g. EBV

How many reservoirs have you built? And when? When was the last time you increased capacity? Which decade? Did you have any contingency plan for the seemingly inevitable climate change? Do you have any means of reducing evaporation from reservoirs during the >30°C summer days?

Maybe if they had built (any) reservoirs in the last 30 years/taken measures to reduce evaporation from existing reservoirs/fixed the prolific number of leaking pipes we wouldn't be in *such* a terrible situation? Yes, obv climate change hasn't helped, but where was the planning?
Following reports that Ardingly Reservoir could dry up within weeks, South East Water have said that standpipes remained part of the company's drought plan but were unlikely to be needed. More here: bbc.in/4BbDOc8
