This was the second medical lecture I attended of the day and was excellent just like the first one.

We learned about community diagnosis which was so interesting.

The lecturer highlighted the differences in health between well off and less well off areas in and around Glasgow.

It struck me that she said that the major adverse influence on health,  in her GP surgery, was alcohol misuse rather than hard drugs.

She had been interviewed by The Guardian newspaper. If you’re interested look up the article – I am going to look it up.
