1/12 How anyone who claims to care about children can read this thread & look at these figures, & still think “Oh yes, this was a good time to remove 😷s from secondary schools!”

What madness is it that has lead to pupils, staff & families being so unprotected from #COVID19?
2/ #Bolton is just 1 town, every day this week more places have found ⬆️cases of the #IndianVariant.

A local school has an outbreak, a whole yr group’s been sent home. A min of 10 children have tested +ve, so assuming they all have a mild infection, ONE could get #LongCovid.
3/ Has the #PrimeMinister decided that this is acceptable COLLATERAL DAMAGE?

Is this what the #antimask anti-scientific groups like #UsForThem, #HartGroup & the #CRG want for the children of this country?
1000s of innocent children w/ long term symptoms we don’t yet understand? Image
4/ And what about those who are CEV? Do they not matter?

What about their families & what about the staff?

Enthusiastic young teachers who went into a profession to CARE FOR & TEACH OUR CHILDREN, not to catch a deadly disease or end up with #LongCovid.
5/ Why have @GavinWilliamson & @educationgovuk listened to the unscientific nonsense that literally pours from the mouths of those who claim to be a “grass roots parents group”?

Don’t take my word for it, read it & decide for yourself ⬇️.

usforthem.co.uk/potential-harm…
6/ BIG NAMES supporting bizarre claims of #MaskEye, ear deformities & hypercapnia caused by wearing😷s.

Do surgeons, anaesthetic & theatre staff have these problems?

Did the #UsForThem document really influence Gvmt policy on #MasksInSchools when expert consensus is this⬇️ Image
7/ Today we have almost 3000 confirmed UK cases of the #IndianVariant.
That means many more are on the way.

Even if you don’t care about human life or suffering, letting this variant “rip” while most <40s are unvaccinated will lead to a surge which could delay #LockdownEasing.
8/ Classrooms & dining halls remain HIGH RISK places.
As so little attention has been made to improve #Ventilation & classes are full, WHAT EXACTLY do those demanding “normal education” think is going to protect the children & adults in those classrooms against #coronavirus? Image
9/ #SAGE & @IndependentSage BOTH advise 😷use to continue this term.
@IndependentSage have repeatedly advised on how to make schools safer.

Why aren’t @BorisJohnson & @10DowningStreet listening? ImageImage
10/ IF you accept that #COVIDisAirborne & that key factors to reducing transmission are VENTILATION, SOCIAL DISTANCING & MASK USE INDOORS, then it follows that CROWDED, POORLY VENTILATED SPACES where MULTIPLE HOUSEHOLDS MIX are HIGH RISK! Image
11/ So the ONLY REASON for the abject failure to tackle #Ventilation in schools after 15 months, added to the removal of 😷s in schools, MUST BE that the UK Gvmt ACTIVELY WANTS #coronavirus to run through schools.

This #Conservative Gvmt WANTS our children to get #COVID19!
12/ There can be no other explanation.....#HerdImmunity was always the plan!

@SunetraGupta, @carlheneghan & their crowd of #GreatBarringtonDeclaration cronies will be delighted.

The UK schools policy on #COVID19 has been & still is ABSOLUTELY UNFORGIVABLE!

1/3 You raise a V GOOD POINT!

Why are 600+ MPs STILL allowed such different conditions to millions of schoolchildren & thousands of staff? If it’s not safe for them to be packed in to the @HouseofCommons w/out 😷s, how & why is it safe for those in schools @BorisJohnson? ImageImage
2/The claim that it’s safe to go to shops/bars/restaurants/gyms/cinemas/theatres/beauty salons/fly abroad/go to a rave/work in or attend school but THEY are allowed 😷s & to socially distance is as disingenuous as any they’ve thrust upon us.

Either BOTH are safe or NEITHER are! ImageImage
3/ So a genuine question to the #PrimeMinister & @10DowningStreet .....

Why are MPs in the @HouseofCommons & those in the @UKHouseofLords, the majority of whom will be vaccinated, still being given such health & safety privileges which protect both them & their families?

1/5 Dear @susannareid100 & @adilray & @GMB, millions of school children, families & teachers across the country urgently need your help.
Masks are no longer required leaving pupils & 1000s of unvaccinated/partially vaccinated adults <40 vulnerable to #COVID19 & #LongCovid.
2/ W/ case numbers of the #IndianVariant ⬆️ sharply in many parts of the UK, I’m utterly mystified that we’re allowing so many young ppl & children to be exposed to #coronavirus every day they’re in school.

We don’t know enough about this #COVIDVariant yet to be so reckless.
3/ Just like the failure to put #India on the #RedList soon enough, the decision to remove the 😷mandate from schools will certainly result in more #COVID & #LongCovid cases.
It is too early to know whether hospitalisations & deaths will rise too.
We can but hope they don’t.

1/10 So #UsForThem, not satisfied with removing one of the very few protections our children have from #COVID19 , want to rob them of the chance to be vaccinated against it too?

Next they’ll recommend we shouldn’t brush their teeth without consent!
#COVIDVaccination Image
2/ Anyone with any knowledge of a world before routine childhood vaccinations will know that children suffered a great deal from diseases that we luckily rarely seen now.

Acute illness, long term morbidity & death.

Take a look at the UK childhood vaccination programme⬇️. ImageImageImage
3/Molly Kingsley’s recent writings seek once again to misinform & confuse, to put a❓ over what is responsible parenting.

She implies that children must be able to give informed consent for #COVIDVaccination for it to have any validity.

Who consents for the IMMs above Molly? ImageImage

1/6 Can someone please ask the #PrimeMinister @ tomorrow’s #PMQs whether he has any idea what the answers to these questions are?

Ideally @Keir_Starmer or @kate_green?
But in the absence of @UKLabour’s support 4 effective mitigations in schools I’m not holding me breath.
2/This “human experiment” is being conducted on CHILDREN FGS!

They may have parents who are not yet vaccinated or CEV. There are large numbers of teaching staff who are <40.

How is this even remotely ethical @MattHancock?
3/ We have the #IndianVariant spreading across the country...v few mitigations left in place...households mixing freely in many indoor settings...school children no longer required to #WearAMask

& GVMT ARE CONDUCTING A HUMAN TRIAL on CHILDREN & ARE KEEPING THE RESULTS SECRET!

For any parent or teacher who believes that the Gvmt is being “guided by the science”, following “data not dates” & has the best interests of your children & family at heart, today is a good day to read these articles from @NafeezAhmed @BylineTimes.
There’s NOTHING “we are a grass roots parents group” about the people pulling the strings of government, resulting in decisions that have directly affected the lives of pupils, staff & families of both.

#UsForThem, aka #ForMeNotYou, do not care about YOUR CHILD or ANY STAFF!
Their #NoMasksInClass campaign, the results of which begin tomorrow, has nothing to do w/ education or keeping children safe.
The vast majority of children understand that being asked to #WearAMask at school is a very small price to pay for keeping others safe & them at school.

#TotalTriage is failing patients w/ skin cancers which are often picked up by chance, when examining someone’s back, abdomen, limbs.
The normalisation of management without examination will lead to many more skin cancer diagnoses being delayed or missed.

thetimes.co.uk/article/0bb2c1…
#TotalTriage is a “non-holistic” form of medicine, which bares no resemblance to the job I trained to do when I did my vocational training.

@NHSEngland @DHSCgovuk & @MattHancock need to listen to what so many experienced GPs are saying before “embedding” this model further.
