AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Wellness & Food Trends: Ocado data shows UK shoppers are doubling down on collagen, with searches up 38% year-on-year and collagen-linked foods like leafy greens surging (+466% YoY), as many consumers see it as a “natural alternative” to cosmetic treatments. Public Health (Children & Vaping): A Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health review warns vaping is not harmless, linking it to breathing problems, allergies, sleep issues, eye symptoms, mental health harms and dental effects, plus risks for babies when mothers vape during pregnancy. Cancer Innovation: Moderna and Merck’s personalised melanoma vaccine reports positive Phase 3 results, cutting recurrence/spread risk when paired with Keytruda, with hopes for market access as early as 2027. NHS & Diagnostics Investment: University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay says it has invested £32m in 2025/26, including a £7.1m Community Diagnostic Centre at Furness General Hospital to speed up tests closer to home. Health & Society (Mental Health Access): Bristol charity Hope Against Suicide opens a non-clinical “Listening Hub” in Cabot Circus, run by trained volunteers and open until January. Infectious Disease (Salmonella): UKHSA reports a salmonella outbreak linked to imported eggs, with one death and hundreds ill, and ongoing advice on safer egg choices. Regional Burden (Chronic Pain): New research finds 49% of South West adults report chronic pain lasting 3+ months, with costs and coping strategies highlighted. Care & Work (Absence): A new absence survey finds long-term sickness absence hits UK employers hardest, with 58% saying it has a high to severe impact.
