You are not going to believe me…
Here goes…
Two more kids at the school are wearing KF94 masks this week… and they don’t have COVID as far as we know…

There is something going on…
What’s going on in the “covid is over” sphere?

You all recall a few weeks ago I said someone had asked my kid where he bought his masks…
That was another kid…

Case study of one family caught in the Strep outbreak on #PlagueIsland.
TL;DR
Asymptomatic carriage in kids.
Antibiotic shortage.
Adults symptomatic.

I have obtained permission to share these details. They are my extended family.
Case 1 ex prem. Started school this year. Fever. Malaise. No sore throat.
Focus of fever found by accident.

So I wrote @KatePri14608408 post about the elderly gentleman that lay dying at home for hours waiting for an ambulance on #PlagueIsland.
Only one person “liked” it, and they live in Bangladesh.
So that’s where y’all are at.

So. Only people living in low income countries have any humanity and compassion left is my interpretation.
I can only think of two reasons to downgrade a disease from HCID protocols.
1 Disease is now Mild™️.
2 Protocols no longer apply to control disease because we have lost control and see no way to get it back.

(I don’t think it’s 1️⃣)

(Or possibly can’t be bothered to do the work to get it back.)
I also love the note that says that overseas strains will be closely monitored, not so much the ones transmitting within the borders.
Oh yes. Because a concerning new variant can only arise in the jungles of Africa, and not the gardens of Kent. (Clears throat…alpha variant).

Probable community transmission of Monkey Pox in London.
We need vaccines to be procured and disease awareness in the community with NPI’s instructed. amp.theguardian.com/science/2022/m…

Monkey Pox is transmitted between humans via respiratory secretions. The usual droplet dogma is advised by CDC, but I doubt that will be enough once it gets going. Use airborne disease control precautions, just like with COVID-19.
It’s also thought to spread through contact.

Kept a screenshot of this one, in case we later say monkey pox wasn’t aerosol and airborne. nj.gov/agriculture/di…
A few mths before getting #LongCovid in Nov 20 I was a frontline NHS respiratory consultant; 6am gym goer; couldn’t sit still, always travelling the world with my wife & 2 gorgeous children. Sep 21- bedbound, gastroparesis, complete sound & light intolerance, bladder incontinence
post-viral urticaria that made me suicidal, pericarditis, angina, cognitive impairment, crippling #POTS resistant to all medication, renal impairment, impaired glucose tolerance, intolerant of most foods. Was waiting for life to end. Got v little help from @NHSEngland 2/n
Have spent over £35,000 on supplements, private specialists & experimental treatment in Germany. I am better but still housebound, 50% bedbound, with work or family life a distant dream. Yet I am one of the lucky ones- had the resources to give myself a fighting chance 3/n
On Twitter I’ve always aimed to convey fact-based views. As a Lib Dem I believe President #Macron is right to make #COVID health passes mandatory to protect the people of France’s freedoms. The #LibDems should do so too but took a mis-step at the spring 2021 conference. Why?
Because as President #Macron said, it’s about citizenship. Freedom only exists if the freedom of everyone is protected. If by exercising our freedom we contaminate our fellow citizens it’s become irresponsibility, which is worth nothing. The #LibDems motion, seeking a liberal
response to the pandemic, tried to do too much too fast. The motion actually says that the party rejects the need for ‘#vaccinepassports’ for domestic use. That was before the Delta variant took hold. Has the need changed? I think so. The motion says Conference believes
Just want to say that @BorisJohnson & @SajidJavid are playing a very dangerous game. By allowing case numbers to grow, the UK has more cases than the entire #EU27 combined. We are a petri dish for a new mutation that could out smart present vaccines & could endanger the world. 😖
And, this government is also condemning young people to catching #COVID19 and the risk of suffering #LongCOVID. People over in the US are horrified that school age children are not wearing masks and are not yet being vaccinate. Our schools are presently super-spreader sites.
As I was saying earlier... 😳
UK scientists caution that lifting of Covid rules is like building ‘variant factories’
Experts react with dismay to ‘frightening’ attitude of Sajid Javid towards removing protections
