What happens when you make bus travel free throughout your city? Iowa City can tell you. They scrapped bus fares in 2023 and delivered a measurable mode shift: residents drove 2.9 million fewer kilometres and annual emissions fell by 24,000 tonnes of CO₂. The policy continues.

The World Health Organization recommends annual limit on fine particulate air pollution of 5ug/m3

The UK Govt Environmental Improvement Plan will align UK’s standards with EU's - 10ug/m3 by 2030

This means in some places wood-burning stoves will be restricted

Yes one lesson is to allow everyone access to COVID booster shots every six months like they do in NZ
The “new normal” for Australia in the last few years is around +6% on the pre-pandemic baseline – worse than even the UK (see below). Even out to June this year (as variant evolution slowed) it was still running at +5% annually. Are there any lessons we could learn from NZ?

Long Covid are getting some great questions on their behalf!

BUT no Qus for Clinically Vulnerable people.

They could have asked:
"Did [the DWP] do any analysis during the pandemic of the potential implications of *Clinical Vulnerability* for the workforce or the economy?"

Patient came in with sore throat. While waiting for rapid Strep test result we glanced back at the Covid-19 RAT result: positive. Reminder that masking in health care makes sense, if you don’t want everyone in your waiting room to go home sick, your staff to get sick, and physicians to get sick.

Powerful piece by @drrachelclarke.com on the COVID inquiry. Those who say it’s easy to be wise in hindsight are being utterly disingenuous. Many of us spoke out at the time, and it’s in the public record.

2/ The paper estimates ~1 in 3 (36%!!!) prevalence of Long Covid resulting in a large Macroeconomic burden.

Up to $1 trillion/year lost. That’s ~1% of global GDP. 💸
