What a farce #cop29 is turning into. The hosts haven’t bothered to report greenhouse gas emissions for 6 years and they seem to be rising fast. As for ⁦@bp_plc⁩, you just know these are weasel words, “any exceedances of applicable air quality…” on.ft.com/4dmXYD2

It's good to recognise a mistake and try something else. That's what @MSF did when it decided to end its access campaign. Let's applaud them. #healthcareafrica #health medium.com/beingwell/grea…

Reimbursement for digital health products happens in similar but slightly different ways throughout Europe, we heard from a panel of government evaluators at #HLTH Europe. The EU won't be competitive until we have a union-wide reimbursement framework for all treatments

No-one should pay for fertility treatment says @AlsalimNader at #HLTH Europe. Any payment should be for results. “Dollar per birth and time to birth” are the only valid measures for fertility clinics, he thinks

It’s beginning. Rational use of health workers will reduce the bargaining ability of primary care doctors. One heckled the Prime Minister now another has taken to X. Wait until those nurses get AI…

What do you do when troublesome shareholders demand less greenwashing; more action on the rapid shift to renewables? You sue them, obviously. The message is clear: don't buy ExxonMobil stock unless you're ready to give up any say in its running(giftlink) on.ft.com/3ulYCQy
