NHS England reported a notable 146% increase in visits to pages about drinking while breastfeeding, emphasizing parental concerns during the festive season regarding alcohol consumption.
During the Christmas and Boxing Day period, the NHS website experienced surges in page views, particularly for coughs, colds, chest infections, and increased inquiries about alcohol poisoning.
Prof Sir Stephen Powis noted the importance of having access to the NHS website and App around the clock for guidance, especially as accidents often occur during festive celebrations.
Although page views related to breastfeeding and alcohol were generally low, they spiked significantly, highlighting the need for accessible health information during holiday festivities.
