二 | 距离中秋节还有三周，牛车水街头已换上中秋灯饰装置，散发节庆气息。有别以往采用“嫦娥”、“灯笼”等传统元素体现中秋节寓意，今年牛车水街道以及唐城坊的中秋灯饰统一采纳“兔子”为主要元素进行装饰。 A lecturer in medicine has blamed Britain's exit from the European Union for a shortage of some medicines.,Dr. Bharat Pankhania, a senior clinical lecturer at The University of Exeter Medical School, told Sputnik that the recent shortage of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and some other drugs — including insulin, antibiotics and antidepressants — was thanks to the UK leaving the bloc two years ago.,"There is a failure of authorities in the United Kingdom to what we call in English, address the elephant in the room," he said.,"Trade between the European Union and the United Kingdom is affected and it is affecting supplies of essential radio isotopes as well as antibiotics and cancer treatments," Pankhania said, "As well as other medicines. And this is a consequence of Brexit.",However, the Daily Express reported that the lack of HRT since April this year was caused by a shortage of material imported from the Far East.,The academic accused the government of having its head in the sand over the issue amid the leadership contest to replace Boris Johnson as prime minister.,"Ministers are in denial and do not want to address the big issue, which is our trade with the European Union, including pharmaceuticals, is affected," he reiterated. "They are pretending that it is not an issue. It is an issue and they are not addressing it.","What we really need is for the medical profession, for the pharmaceutical profession, for the other health care workers to have one voice and say it, loud and clear" Pankhania stressed.,WorldUK Pharmacists Warn Medicine Shortages Put Patients at Risk08:40 GMT,The senior medic warned that the problem could affect patients "across the board" in the National Health Service (NHS).,"They are across a range of ailments. They range from patients who need radio isotopes for cancer therapy," Pankhania said. "There are patients who need insulin for diabetes. And then there are patients who also need, for example, hormone replacement therapy".,A survey of 1,562 UK pharmacists for the Pharmaceutical Journal established that more than 54% of respondents said that patients had been put at risk in the last six months due to medicine shortages.,“We had to ration it, and this has potentially put patients at risk of vitamin deficiencies,” a pharmacist was cited as saying.,In response, a spokesperson for the UK Department of Health and Social Care insisted that they “take patient safety extremely seriously, and […] routinely share information about medicine supply issues directly with the NHS [National Health Service] so they can put plans in place to reduce the risk of any shortage impacting patients, including offering alternative medication.”。其中，唐城坊外的中秋装置以“兔子”、“月亮”为元素，挂上巨大反射镜，营造月空奇幻感。
三 | 牛车水街道则以合家欢庆中秋为主，展现跨世代如何庆佳节。有公众认为，缺乏传统元素带不出中秋典故之寓意，但也有人认为以新方式诠释中秋节主题更加摩登有趣，反而能吸引更多人。
四 | 今年的牛车水中秋灯饰有大量可爱的兔子，受访公众有的大赞也有一小部分略嫌太多。今年牛车水中秋活动以“跨越世代庆中秋”为主题，融入更多家庭元素。
五 | 李美娟（51岁，收银员）受访时说，牛车水的节庆灯饰向来备受关注，反映华人文化色彩。“我感觉太多兔子了。一般都是嫦娥搭配兔子和月亮，带出嫦娥奔月的中秋典故，现在只有一堆兔子和月亮，和中秋节的关联比较少。”游客穆女士（46岁）带女儿在唐城坊外与中秋装置合影。“看到月亮、兔子，一下就联想到中秋主题，我觉得相比传统装饰，这样的装饰更具新意，中间挂着的反射镜也增加了互动性。
六 | 我就是被这个反射镜吸引了，刚刚看到很多人拍照打卡。
七 | ”其他受访公众看法各异，不过较多人认为今年的设计可接受，并期待正式亮灯，届时会再来欣赏。根据牛车水节庆筹委会的文告，今年的牛车水庆中秋活动主题是“跨越世代庆中秋”，在牛车水中心地段的主要灯饰高达8米，展现了一个家庭三代人在月亮和灯笼下，团聚分享中秋节喜悦的画面，以此提醒人民多多陪伴家人。牛车水的中秋节灯饰从星期五（8月30日）至10月2日，每晚7时至午夜12时亮起。牛车水节庆筹委会联合主席白清富告诉《新明日报》，这次的设计着重呈现随着时代变迁，三代人从过去到现在庆祝中秋节习俗的演变，而不变的是家庭和社区间的情谊。另外，设计也尽力在传统和摩登元素上取得平衡，吸引各族群。负责管理唐城坊的公司鹏瑞利（新加坡）商用管理发言人回复询问时说道，今年的设计选择以玉兔为主要亮点，希望能让访客有跟过去不同的新鲜体验。
