Nearly a quarter of the global population of older adults at mid-century could face extreme heat, putting their health in danger.

Earlier this month it was announced that fluoride will be added to the water supplies of millions more Britons under Government plans to improve dental health.
While the mineral has been added to water supplies in parts of the UK for decades – and NHS and experts including chief medical officer Sir Chris Whitty insist it is inherently safe – the plans are not without controversy and have attracted unfounded internet conspiracy theories.

Sony’s endless corporate bragging about its scrupulous ethical values and commitment to diversity and inclusion doesn’t specifically mention its policy on child abuse. So how does it square this with purchasing the musical catalogue of an alleged child abuser?
Perhaps it feels the generous support it gives to four children’s charities speaks for itself.

Pharmacists should not be considered a substitute for GPs, campaigners said today as Rishi Sunak faced backlash over his ‘revolution’.
Under blockbuster NHS plans designed to free up millions of doctors’ appointments, chemists have been given new powers to hand out prescriptions for seven common ailments.
