The UK doesn't have a president, so it normally refers to the US president in general context.

Restricting it to physical premises and non-digital (aka betting shops pre Internet) would solve most of the issue.

Splitting hairs, but the public health bodies are separate from the National Health Services (so there exists Public Health England _and_ NHS England). Public health is slightly different to healthcare, but of course they work together.

Oddly, Public Health Scotland is part of NHS Scotland; but Public Health England is not part of NHS England, it's a parallel department.

Each country also has their own Public Health bodies, so pretty much everything related to health is devolved

"In this model, mice lived in specially designed cages where food was accessed through a hinged, weighted lid. To eat, the mice had to lift the lid while wearing a small shoulder collar, causing a squat-like movement that engaged the muscle contractions people use during resistance exercise. The load was gradually increased over several days, mimicking progressive strength training."

So the study doesn't really show that weighlifting per se is beneficial, but putting food behind weighted hatches is?

"Voluntary wheel running (EEX) was conducted as previously described in single-housed mice with access to voluntary running wheels and food and water ad-libitum,"

And the runners could each as much as they liked?

Sounds like bunk.
