Why is she jumping for joy? Why are we celebrating this?

Why aren’t we acknowledging rapid increase in disabled people means many will be coerced? /1

Outstanding work by @catinthehat.bsky.social on the #covidinquiry module 3. Absurd behaviour from some UK institutions, often dictated by a single person. Extreme lack of accountability to date and an ongoing false dogma. #covid threadreaderapp.com/thread/18607...

As a nation, we seem intent on a communal forgetting of how bad it was. I'm reposting this thread of testimony on the reality of the NHS during first two waves. Pls watch.
Prof Kevin Fong giving the most devastating and moving testimony to the Covid Inquiry of visiting hospital intensive care units at the height of the second wave in late Dec 2020.

The unimaginable scale of death, the trauma, the loss of hope. Please watch this 2min clip.

🌟Important letter regarding vaccine equity & accessibility

Fantastic work @cvcev.bsky.social 🙌
🚨ANNOUNCEMENT:
Our open letter, signed by leading scientists & HCPs, urges the JCVI & UK Gov to reverse the decision denying COVID vaccines to millions of Clinically Vulnerable people who still qualify for 'flu vaccines.

A "willingness-to-pay" approach puts lives at risk.

Hey, @gwynnemp.bsky.social do you think we could start with some mitigations measures now, please?

Teach the food hygiene inspectors to do air hygiene as well? #HEPA filters & ventilation for schools? #MaskUp in hospitals, maybe? You know, basic stuff the Tories neglected to do.
