1/ #PrimeMinister & #HealthSecretary,

I just want to clarify how I can keep myself & my family safe from the #COVID19 surge in cases in our area?

I live & work in Newcastle, where cases are now well > 800 per 100,000, a real #COVIDHotSpot!

@BorisJohnson @sajidjavid
2/ How do you suggest advice to “proceed with caution” & “remain vigilant” will stop my #NHS colleagues & I from succumbing to #COVID19 as frontline HCWs regularly exposed to #coronavirus, now that 😷s are OPTIONAL in many places & virtually all restrictions will end in 7/7?
3/ Which exact bit of your roadmap/unlocking is still “following the science”?

The science that quite clearly says the best way to protect both health AND the economy PLUS prevent new #covidvariants arising is to KEEP COMMUNITY TRANSMISSION & CASES LOW?
4/ The science that says that trying to achieve #HerdImmunityByInfection will ALSO cause many more deaths & a tidal wave of long term morbidity?

Or the science that says #COVIDisAirborne so the ongoing focus on surface wiping & hand-washing will fail to control transmission?
5/ Have you considered the science that says that CROWDED, POORLY VENTILATED INDOOR SPACES ARE HIGH RISK & that there will be ongoing educational (& employment) disruption until VENTILATION IN SCHOOLS (& workplaces) is taken seriously & investment is provided for it?
6/ What about the science that ?s the rationale 4 ⬇️MITIGATIONS when our adult vaccination programme is weeks away from completion or that’s lead the #JCVI to approve vaccination of 12-18yr olds?

Or that mixing a partially vaccinated popn w/ ⬆️cases could lead to vaccine escape?
7/ #PrimeMinister….

YOU (& YOUR ADVISORS)STOPPED FOLLOWING THE SCIENCE MANY MOONS AGO!

Your “strategy” has NOTHING to do with PUBLIC HEALTH & EVERYTHING to do with the ECONOMY & the FREEDOMS of #Tory MPs, donors & voters.
8/ Be honest with the British public….”personal responsibility” just isn’t going to do the job!

It doesn’t stand a chance.

Look at scenes from @wembleystadium & around #London y’day to see just how ludicrous that suggestion is!!

#Wembley #LeicesterSquare
9/ So I’ll ask again…

Just how will advice to “proceed w/ caution” & “remain vigilant” prevent a huge #3rdWave of infections, UNNECESSARY, AVOIDABLE DEATHS of many more ppl, debilitating #LongCovid symptoms in countless others & non-#COVID harms due to ⬆️ #NHS pressure?
10/ Further economic chaos & the potential for a further devastating #lockdown are just around the corner!

Your “strategy” is neither scientific nor intelligent, financially astute nor compassionate.

It’s viewed by the vast majority of UK experts & MORE as RECKLESS & NEGLIGENT.
11/ I am not alone in believing that this #HerdImmunityByInfection “strategy” for a novel virus is based on ideology rather than science, mixed with lethal #BritishExceptionalism, insatiable greed for both power & wealth & is not only UTTERLY UNFORGIVABLE but is also CRIMINAL!

1/4 @GMB & @BBCBreakfast what was the issue?

Did showing the many scenes of foul-mouthed, aggressive, reckless & idiotic “fans” wrecking everything in sight not fit w/ the ridiculous notion that we can rely on PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY from July 19th to keep us safe from #COVID19?
2/ I suspect asking any of them to continue to #WearAMask indoors in crowded, poorly ventilated areas next week will be greeted w/ a similarly irresponsible & ignorant response.

It’s worth noting that this reprehensible behaviour was PRE-MATCH, this was them in an EXCITED MOOD!
3/ I daren’t imagine their response to being told that #FreedomDay is NOT QUITE HERE YET & that the public need to be patient & tolerant for a bit longer.
& imagine the outrage when they discover that we should’ve focused on SHARED AIR rather than wet-wiping & hand-sanitising!

1/ #JohnsonAndJavid - a grim tale of ego & ambition driven ideology combined w/ lethal ignorance & #WorldBeating serial incompetence. @MattHancock was just the warm up act.

#Covid19UK is a grotesque & callous population “cull” without care or compassion for those most affected.
2/ #WilfulNegligence no longer adequately describes their modus operandi.

Everything about this phase is DELIBERATE…PLANNED…CALCULATED.
3/ Every life lost to or affected by #COVID19 in this #3rdWave is in the “reasonable collateral damage” group, chosen by the most brutal & self-serving government of my lifetime.

#HerdImmunityByInfection a strategy enabled by complicit medical/scientific advisors & a woeful MSM.

1/8 But “very very very low risk” of what @apsmunro ?

Death?
Yes mercifully we can all agree on that, but it’s absolutely no comfort to the distraught families of children who have died of #COVID19 after contracting it in #COVID MITIGATION-FREE English schools. None whatsoever!
2/ What about the risk of getting PIMS or significant #LongCovid?
The trauma for both children & parents of a prolonged hospital stay shouldn’t be underestimated.
What about the devastating effect of losing a parent,close family member,teacher or of one of them having #LongCovid?
3/ What about damaging effects of the repeated educational disruption we’ve witnessed over the past 16/12, which may effect some children for a v long time, maybe always?
The lives of children who’ve been @ key moments of their education(Yrs 6/7,10-13)may take v different paths.

1/11This is the bizarre thing @joanna_brady ….

@UsforThemUK are repeatedly heard saying “NO” to ANY form of protection from #COVID19, a virus that we know can cause significant morbidity & mortality in both adults & children.

But they NEVER offer any practical solutions.
2/ Obvs it’s good news that serious illness/death in children from #COVID19 is rare, but there’s no good way to predict which 1 in roughly 10 children’ll be left w/ long term debilitating symptoms, so letting them be so CRUELLY EXPOSED every day they’re @ school is NEGLIGENT!
3/ Negligent, cruel, unnecessary, unconscionable, wicked, brutal, reckless, unforgivable…..

1/10 How fortunate to have both @lensiseethrough & @JuliaHB1 in one place together!

Molly, Julia & @UsforThemUK - Let’s put the physical risks of #COVID19 & #LongCovid to individual children & adolescents to one side for a moment.
2/ And let’s also ignore the devastating effect on any child, of a close family member having serious #COVID19, #LongCovid or dying from #COVID.
3/ And for completeness let’s just forget that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US wants to “get back to normal” & for the final restrictions to be safely eased…..

LET’S FOCUS SOLELY ON EDUCATION!

1/9 Dear @adilray, you & @susannareid100 are 2 of few presenters prepared fo challenge government rhetoric.

Can you ask @MattHancock why, in the face of ⬆️cases & hospitalisations of the #DeltaVariant, schools have virtually no mitigations to ⬇️transmission of an #airborne🦠?
2/ Children account for a significant proportion of ⬆️cases (10,000+ today) & can transmit #COVID19 to their families.

A worrying number of children have got #LongCovid (maybe 10%) & campaigners are trying to prevent them being vaccinated.
CV/CEV kids are a particular concern.
3/ There are several weeks of term left & ⬆️numbers of schools have outbreaks, risking not only the health of pupils, staff & families but also MORE EDUCATIONAL DISRUPTION.

WHY are the lives of CHILDREN being dismissed so callously?

WHY is NOTHING being done to protect them?
