Maybe @nytimes is now reporting this, it’ll finally be recognised for the national scandal it is

Here’s the magnificent Professor @AllysonPollock making this exact point in last week’s #TheCovidReport

‘This is a really secret process & it's unacceptable in this country'

…

And here’s @afuahirsch talking to the formidable @doctorshaib about what complete nonsense it is to say you are ‘following the science’

Big political announcement yesterday about the contract-tracing app. But there’s a pattern here. Why is Britain - again - ignoring global consensus to go it alone? Why @MattHancock is app using *self-reported symptoms*? Why centralised not decentralised?
theguardian.com/politics/2020/…
It’s not just that it needs more people to download it than use WhatsApp. It’s that it’s asking people to take on trust that someone they may not know has accurately reported their symptoms & that those symptoms are in fact COVID-19. That’s a lot of trust.
Is it going to work? It’s really hard to see how. And all this is *before* you consider @RaviNa1k & @rydermc’s team suggesting it may be illegal...

Yesterday, Banks, Wigmore & Farage were all over Twitter crowing about Banks's latest victory against the Electoral Commission. This morning I got around to looking into what it was all about. Turns out, Banks had tried to sue the Electoral Commission for defamation...
In response to an inquiry, Electoral Commission confirmed this morning that Arron Banks issued a letter before action to the Electoral Commission. It threatened to take a libel action against the commission for referring him to the NCA.
Yesterday's 'victory' is set out here. The Electoral Commission re-iterates that it was correct to refer Banks to the NCA. It confirms it accepts the NCA's findings.

‘It has been reported over last 3 weeks there’s been an apparent rise in number of children of all ages presenting with multisystem inflammatory state requiring intensive care across London & other parts of UK’

NHS advice to doctors. Shouldn’t there be more advice for parents?
‘Abdominal pain & gastrointestinal symptoms have been a common feature’

How many people know this?

Govt advice is to watch for temperature & cough
‘There is a growing concern that a SARS-COV-2 related inflammatory syndrome is emerging in children in the UK’
