After Andrew Wakefield's fraudulent MMR paper:

Measles cases: up 1200%
Mumps cases: up 70,000%
Multiple fatalities

People with no science knowledge were taken in by Wakefield.

People with no science knowledge are taken in by anti-vaxxers.

Listen to scientists

I talk about these so much but honestly, if you only do one thing for #DementiaActionWeek, visit @innov-dementia.bsky.social Dementia Diaries dementiadiaries.org. An amazing resource to hear directly from people living with dementia talk about their experiences, views & thoughts

I have read "British Fish" about a hundred times this morning. What an absurd notion it is to apply a nationality to a creature solely based on its location when you kill it.
The same people effectively handing a British passport to a haddock are the ones that want the dinghies turned around!

Brilliant- Normal People!!

A few pearls from day 1 of #AGoodLifeWithDementia in Brough East Yorks. J: it was, ‘nice to open up and not feel stupid and not be laughed at… we often get defensive but it’s been nice to be with normal people!’

Such a privilege once again, to witness people with dementia coming together for the first time feeling safe to pipe up without feeling stupid or that they'll be interrupted or corrected or struggle to get the right words out - a space to get a word in edgeways! @louiseheatley.bsky.social

Day one of yet another #AGoodLifeWithDementia course in #eastriding started today. As ever- nervous, joyous, insightful, shared learning amongst peers with dementia. Just brilliant. This is the ‘backbone of the recovery model!’
