"A European military is now a certainty & it will include the UK & other European countries not in the EU. President, Mr. Prime Minister, Ladies and Gentlemen Ministers, My dear colleagues, Europe is at a critical turning point in its history. /3
"The American shield is crumbling, Ukraine risks being abandoned, Russia strengthened. Washington has become the court of Nero, a fiery emperor, submissive courtiers and a ketamine-fueled jester in charge of purging the civil service. /4

COVID damages the frontal lobes, particularly the dominant frontal lobe, which plays a key role in moderating socialisation. It tempers social impulses, like violent or sexual urges. But is there any evidence the ongoing COVID pandemic has changed social behaviours? /2

"The damage of the WHO’s false claims continue to reverberate today. Doctors and hospitals continue to infect their patients with flu, RSV, strep, and now COVID as infection control measures like HEPA filtration go completely unmentioned in the new guidance document. " /2
"Hospitals continue to place highly infectious patients close to COVID-negative patients, falsely believing that curtains and a few feet of distance will protect vulnerable sick people." /3
"Doctors and nurses continue to lack proper PPE, while acquiring Long COVID at high rates and dealing with out-of-control hospital crowded all over the world." /4

I have been made aware of a major risk factor some people have that makes COVID a more serious risk for them than for others. As far as I know, there has not been a systematic study to quantify this risk, nor been any public health attempt to warn this group. /2
About 25% of the adult population have a patent foramen ovale. This is a hole between the left and right atria (upper chambers) of the heart. This hole exists in everyone before birth, but most often closes shortly after being born. /3
Normally, a PFO is not a significant problem. A small proportion of blood might pass through it from right to left sides of the heart, by-passing the lungs, but the proportion of air not oxygenated is not functionally significant. /4

Prof Crab and I took a very similar set of domestic strategies to deal with COVID. I thought I might summarize them below: /2
But first, some basic principles: 1) COVID is primarily transmitted by aerosols - minute micro-droplets that waft in the air like cigarette smoke. 2) It is transmitted from an infected person to an uninfected person. /3
3) Some infected people are much more likely to transmit infections than other people. 4) Some locations are much more likely to allow transmission of infections. 5) Some behaviors are much more likely to allow transmission of infections. /4
