I mask because the science shows we need layered mitigations. The research shows covid is airborne. The evidence in the covid inquiry shows they knew it was airborne from day 1.

Scientists at Yale say long COVID is part of a “long-established family of post-acute infection syndromes.” The biggest challenge is understanding its “underlying pathobiology.” They were “surprised” how often children are affected, noting kids are also vulnerable to “long-term effects.”

Once again, BBC is washing its hands of its responsibility to communicate CLEAR & ACCURATE information on the best ways to prevent RESPIRATORY illnesses. 😵‍💫
Hi BBC,
Thank you for this article on the spread of the flu in UK schools. But could you change the image illustrating it? The flu is a virus that is mainly airborne. Vaccination, masks and good ventilation are the most effective means of prevention.

This is obscene.

That others in politics can’t or won’t say that this is obscene hits at the heart of the problems we face.

It’s such a mindfuck to see articles & TV shows trying to sensitively reflect on the ongoing COVID pandemic—but doing so only in the past tense, or as if it were a horrible event that ended in 2022 & is all behind us now & we just need to deal with the psychological after effects. It ain’t over.

UK: Some schools disrupted amid rise in flu cases.

Some schools are reintroducing COVID-like measures due to higher illness rates than last year.

In late November, 107 school incidents were reported: 17 influenza, 2 COVID, and 76 where the exact respiratory virus wasn’t known.

Get vaccinated. But also know that, while helping prevent serious illness in the initial acute phase, in some cases COVID vaccines may reduce the risk of infection only by roughly 30% for 2-4 months. And they don’t prevent long term issues. So that’s where the need for masking comes in
Some vaccines like COVID and flu don’t stop completely stop infection.

But they do reduce the risk of getting infected and greatly reduce severe illness risk.

They are still worth getting.

Since they are not 100% effective it’s also wise to add another layer of protection by wearing a mask.

"Strange Structures Found Lurking in The Blood of People With Long COVID."

Analysis found long COVID patients had far more microclots than healthy controls — a median 19.7-fold increase — and the clots were also significantly larger than those seen in healthy blood.
