There ARE things we can and should be doing...
Great news about Erasmus btw! I teach at a Uni and our students have missed out on so much.

Instead of accurate public health info, we are stuck with this level of idiocy. There is NO place for politics in public health. Flu & Covid are airborne. We need masks that protect against airborne spread, open widows to ventilate & air filters.
It isn't rocket science.
Washing hands won't help.

Conclusion: 'Respirators are superior and should be the first choice in a serious emerging epidemic or pandemic in healthcare and aged care settings.'
I know you thought it was a tangent, but as someone who has had long covid & would've liked accurate public health info in '21, Wes' silence is 🤮 .

Hello, I called the other day about Wes Streeting, you weren't convinced by my point that Wes was being disingenous by using the flu epidemic as leverage in the strike talks. You said you were not aware of the details re: masks. So I thought I would share this from the BMJ archive.ph/2025.02.28-1...

Not read much on effective mask wearing then?

This is Violet’s actual speech. Obvs, it’s not about mask mandates at all. That’s just the Daily Fail trying to put their dreadful spin on it. bsky.app/profile/luck...
“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”

Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

Can I just flag up Violet Affleck at the UN clean indoor air meeting yesterday in New York? The Daily Fail did this poll which has backfired brilliantly on them: www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
Should people have to wear face masks in medical facilities?
Violet Affleck, the daughter of Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, has now advocated for the return of mask mandates to help protect the vulnerable, during a speech at a UN event in New York.

'Paediatric Long COVID (PLC) is a heterogeneous condition, which can have a substantial impact on daily life of children and adolescents.'
So, why aren't @ukhsa.bsky.social warning parents of this ongoing risk to our children?

Regular listener here :)
When you get a spare hour, can you please pull this report to pieces?
It is beyond a joke that these reports are churned out which gloss over the ongoing impact of the ongoing global pandemic! 🤯

🚨NEW REPORT🚨
Huge increase in UK sickness absence.
The Health & Wellbeing Report 2025 found we now have record levels of sickness. Now 9.4 days per employee.
What happened in 2020?
A 35 page long report: guess what it doesn't mention as an ongoing cause of employee sickness?
September 11, 2025 at 6:50 PM
Oh, and guess which workers ARE NOT off sick more?
🥁
Those working from home 🤷‍♀️

'Over a third (36%) of organisations with employees working from home say that sickness absence rates have decreased as a consequence,'

Why are we all being so stupid?
