Get today's headlines by email   Researchers said the projected increase in spending on new medicines would require significant cuts to NHS services unless additional government funding is provided. The analysis estimates the annual cost of the agreement will rise to &#xA3;8.8 billion by 2036, with the cumulative cost reaching &#xA3;44.7 billion over the period. Medicines costs could reshape NHS spendingThe report, produced by researchers from the University of York, the University of Liverpool and Christchurch Hospital in New Zealand, found that reduced NHS spending on services could have a major impact on public health. If the effects on adult social care were also included, the estimated number of excess deaths would increase to 291,000. Researchers said most of the preventable deaths would involve people with heart, respiratory and gastrointestinal diseases, as well as cancer. Government defends agreementThe trade deal requires the UK to pay around 25% more for new medicines over the next decade. It also commits the NHS in England to doubling the share of GDP spent on innovative medicines, from 0.3% to 0.6%. When the agreement was announced, ministers described it as a landmark deal that would improve patient access to new treatments while protecting British pharmaceutical exports from potential US tariffs. The government has said the agreement will cost an additional &#xA3;1 billion between 2025-26 and 2028-29, although it has acknowledged costs will rise after that period without providing further estimates. Science minister Patrick Vallance previously confirmed that the additional spending would come from the Department of Health and Social Care rather than the Treasury. Critics call for greater scrutinyThe findings have prompted renewed calls for the government to publish its own impact assessment of the agreement. Sir Ciar&#xE1;n Devane, chief executive of the NHS Alliance, said the analysis raised serious questions about whether the deal represented good value for patients and the NHS, warning that diverting billions from frontline services could have significant consequences for prevention, community care and treatment of long-term conditions. Liberal Democrat health spokesperson Helen Morgan described the findings as alarming and urged ministers to release their assessment of the agreement. Campaign groups including Global Justice Now and Just Treatment also criticised the deal, arguing that higher medicines spending could reduce funding available for NHS services and staff while increasing profits for pharmaceutical companies. Department rejects findingsResponding to the analysis, a Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson disputed the projected &#xA3;45 billion cost. The department said reforms to medicines pricing would allow NHS patients to access life-changing treatments that were previously unavailable while strengthening the UK's position as a centre for developing and manufacturing new medicines. The spokesperson added that funding for the agreement would come from allocations agreed in the spending review, which secured record NHS funding, with future spending to be determined at the next review.

Therefore, it is of great importance always to seek out for non-invasive procedures first, likely with help from a pain management doctor, before having any invasions, lumbar punctures, injections, etc. done at your back. The reason I sent you the link to Prof. Dr. Tennant`s website is, that many of his expertise also works with other back problems, besides AA.   From an orthopaedic perspective, you might consider Phramongkutklao Hospital in Bangkok to get yourself examined. From a neurological perspective, you might consider Prasat Neurological Hospital in Bangkok for examination.  With both hospitals, I have had great success and I am still thankful to the doctors, that I am able to walk, with the help of a walker on wheels.  I hope you will find the best possible way to be able to fight your back problems and your back pain.&#x1F91E;&#x1F340;&#x1F64F;</description><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 08:46:31 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Village People co-founder Victor Willis dies at 74</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397889-village-people-co-founder-victor-willis-dies-at-74/?do=findComment&comment=20579829]]></link><description>Someone dies, and the people on here can't wait to disrespect him.

They can be pickled whole or sliced. I take a quarter or half of one lime, cut it into smaller pieces, and nibble at it little by little along with most any meal. Similar to chutney, I believe.  More information:  Pickled Lime Pickled lime (or lime pickle) is mostly sour, salty, and spicy. Cooks soak whole or chopped limes in oil, salt, and spices like chili and mustard seed . They leave the jars in the sun for weeks to cure . The rinds stay chunky . You use it as a strong flavor booster for curries.   Ingredients &amp; Tools 12 to 14 fresh limes 5 dessertspoons of salt (coarse or sea salt is best) 4 fl oz (110 ml) water 9 oz (250 g) granulated sugar 12 whole cloves 12 whole black peppercorns 1 sterilized glass jar [1, 2] Instructions Cut the limes: Slice the limes into 3 equal pieces . Salt the limes: Place the lime slices into a bowl with layers of salt . Let them stand for 10 hours . Simmer the syrup: Put the limes and their juices into a pan . Add the water, sugar, cloves, and peppercorns . Heat gently until the sugar dissolves . Then, simmer slowly for 25 minutes . Jar and store: Remove the spices using a spoon . Pour the limes and the syrup into a warm, sterilized jar. Seal it tightly . Wait and enjoy: Store in a cool, dark place for 1 month before eating]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 02 Jul 2026 08:36:33 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Burnham Unveils 'No 10 North' Devolution Plan</title><link><![CDATA[https://aseannow.com/topic/1397738-burnham-unveils-no-10-north-devolution-plan/?do=findComment&comment=20579821]]></link><description>Very weird how that wakerfield mp stood down to make way in the safe seat.
