Perhaps, if those are appointment types are needed and wanted, but mainly ending the choice between wardialling and too-long waits. It sucks that you phone up at 9am and get told to call at 8 tomorrow if you've not got so ill you go to A&E or a private clinic if you can. Ill people often can't control their sleep and primary care should be run with more consideration for the patients, not mainly operator convenience.

Correction: they think they've won, but only because they're clueless.
Hilarious truncated headlines are hilarious.
What do you use instead for online social groups? Do you ever hit a group or business that's only on Meta apps, whether fakebook or whatsapp?
Though I’m not sure why they want a bunch of videos of 16 year olds…
Do they have pizza restaurants with secret basements in Aus? /s
How much are shareholders extracting per year at the moment?
[Users] who believe they have been wrongly categorised as under 16 can ask for a review and submit a "video selfie" to verify their age. They can also provide a driver's licence or a government-issued identification.
Because uploading your image and ID to Meta isn't a security risk at all, oh no.
Why are governments helping Meta and friends harvest their citizens' data? Evil or clueness?
Not necessarily. It could also be done by requiring humane appointments systems in the GP contracts.
Shocking no one wants to try and have a conversation about their health by shouting over the counter to a pharmacist in a packed shop as they vaguely listen with one ear while packing medication.
You can ask for a consultation with the pharmacist, which should be in a private side room. Of course, you do have to wait a bit if they're busy dispensing, but it'll almost always be quicker than the wait in A&E.
Agree entirely that the real solution is to fix the GP appointments farce, which in most places is still a choice between wardialling at 8am for an urgent triage appointment or waiting weeks for a non-urgent appointment by which time you've recovered or deteriorated to the point of visiting A&E anyway.

Switching which devil sponsors the barrier tap-to-pay pad covers. Nothing to see here except a little more TfL funding?
Not quite transport but I suspect some of us use car hire to fill in the gaps.
My GP no longer handles eye care. We have to phone an 'urgent eye service' on the other side of the country, send phone pics and so on. They then send the prescription to the pharmacy online. If you need to be seen in person, either you go to a hospital clinic within 24h if it's urgent, or get a GP appointment weeks later when it's irrelevant, in my experience. Guess I got treated sooner and didn't have to deal with as much transport while I couldn't see properly, but it all felt a bit inefficient and impersonal.
