📍BAD SIGN—Something really bad happening in UK 🇬🇧—especially notable in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿— where hospitalization for #COVID19 resurging—but for first time since vaccine mass rollout—deaths newly spiking now as well ⚠️. Possibly new Delta sub variant. Watching. bbc.com/news/uk-wales-…
2) in the UK, there has been a sudden rise in a Delta subtype AY.4.2, which some are calling "Delta Plus", contains mutations that might give the virus survival advantages. It’s about 10% now. bbc.com/news/health-58…
3) this new surge seems unique to UK and Eastern Europe at the moment. Russia is now in a one week semi lockdown, as is Latvia. UK may need fast action to avoid that fate.
4) Cases and POSITIVITY in the UK 🇬🇧 is surging fast. Very worrisome trend. This is not going well… 3 consecutive weeks of increases now already. Bad trend.
5) in the UK 🇬🇧— with cases rising fast, deaths are also forecasted to climb in the coming weeks. UK is definitely seeing a new wave potentially as winter approaching soon.

Figure by @DrWilliamKu
6) and cases rising and dominating in kids 10-19. But rising in UK across all age groups, especially middle age adults too. UK is definitely in a looming wave. This is gonna be bad again.
7) positivity surging in England among kids 5-14 too… what is even more scary is that #LongCovid is still not peaked yet because current #LongCovidKids is from weeks prior to the surge.
8) Let this sink in- among kids 5-14, we are now 2x worse than the first delta wave in England. This is getting criminal negligence!!!
9) UK needs urgently a fast booster program like US and Israel 🇮🇱— US just approved boosters. See thread 🧵 below
10) Boosters slash severe COVID by 90% or more!
11) This is what happens when nationwide boosters were rolled out in Israel 🇮🇱. Its Delta variant wave stopped soon after. UK needs mass boosters for all. And 2nd shots for teenagers too.
12) Lab error — one major lab used in South West of England discovered that 43,000 PCR tests may have received inaccurate results from the lab between September 8 and October 12– giving false negatives! This coincides with a surge in SW England. metro.co.uk/2021/10/15/cov…
13) The new Delta AY42 subtype is more transmissible than original #DeltaVariant— about 10-15% more. Hence some call it now #DeltaPlus ft.com/content/f1ec9d…
14) England hospitalizations are exponentially surging faster than ever before this year!! This is horrible trajectory.

⚠️NO RARE BEEF!—@USDA suddenly admits (after Q&A pestering) that 120F cooked beef🥩patties experimentally inoculated with H5N1 virus still had surviving virus.

➡️“Cooking to… 120° F did show that there was virus still in the cooked hamburger patty, although at reduced levels." Image
2) Initially the @USDA only stated that no virus survived cooking to 160 F and 145 F. But they didn’t volunteer the 120 F rare cooking temperature results! Only after more questioning did they reveal 120 F virus survival. But so many folks eat rare meat! 🥩 DISCLOSURE CRITICAL!
3) here was the initial USDA press conference announcement. Made no mention of the results for virus levels in beef at lower temperatures.

Dear Raw Milk drinkers— behold your future:

“West Virginia politician falls ill due to drinking unpasteurized milk after helping pass a law that legalized raw milk.”

The FDA has completely dropped the ball on stopping raw milk trade.
3) Folks— famous Typhoid Fever outbreak in UK 🇬🇧 — caused by RAW MILK 🥛… legendary case from 1937.

We don’t learn from history do we? We just have to learn the hard way all over?

UPDATE—Solar Storm hits the highest level of G5, the first in over 2 decade, which could knock out power to grids and disrupt GPS. A coronal mass ejection of G5 was also what the infamous “Carrington Event” was in 1859. But it depends on magnetic 🧲 polarity of each CME wave. NOAA warned earlier today that CME storms tend to be even stronger on the latter half of a storm wave. Let’s hope the next two days won’t be as extreme as the Carrington Event. #solarstormImage
Image
2) the CME does create super gorgeous auroras.
3) We are potentially in for a wild weekend. We haven’t been hit with this many CMEs in a long ass time. Nor has NOAA alerted with a GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH in over 20 years.

⚡️INBOUND SOLAR STORMS—5x mega coronal mass ejections - CMEs - that can knock out power are going to be slamming at Earth 🌍 between Friday and Sunday this weekend. Earth has only been hit with 3 previous severe CMEs in last 4 years. But we are gonna get 5x G4 CMEs in 3 days!😳 Image
2) Let this sink — this is the first GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH since 2005!

Folks - this is serious - it can knock out not only electricity but it can theoretically knock out airplanes ✈️ too! Image
3) Folks- it’s possible. Not only can it cause higher radiation and knock out communications, but a strong CME can knock out airliner avionics. “according to reports by aviation regulators, the issue is not whether it will happen, but when” 😳 thedailybeast.com/how-a-solar-st…

Things are not going well with whooping cough (pertussis). Childhood vaccinations plummeting in the UK 🇬🇧, and kids also have weakened immune systems post-COVID. And it’s not even autumn 🍂.

HT @1goodtern Image
2) Also… let’s not forget the “m” word. Because masks do work if society takes it seriously.
3) unless we systematically solve the. chronic lack of public health infrastructure, new outbreaks will continue. We shouldn’t just learn to live with it.

⚠️New sudden outbreak of MERS coronavirus with HUMAN TO HUMAN transmission—WHO has put out an outbreak bulletin regarding 3 cases in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 who contracted MERS (with zero contact with camels). All 3 were hospitalized and intubated. Index case has died in just 11 days from the onset of cough and a runny nose. ➡️Here where it gets interesting—the other 2 cases, found via vigorous contact tracing—both likely contracted it from the index case in the hospital—one shared a hospital room with the index case, while the other merely visited the same hospital’s ER—but he was NOT in the same hospital ward as the index case! Given second case was in a completely separate ward of the hospital, it makes me think it was likely #airborne transmission.

Shouldn’t we all masking in hospitals? @CDCgov’s idiotic HICPAC committee that sets hospital safety standards meantime wants to water them down. Someone should share this with the HICPAC folks, thanks. And demand @CDCDirector to get serious about public health again.

2) previously, WHO’s Feb bulletin of Aug 2023-Feb 2024 only reported 4 cases, 2 had camel🐪 contact. None of the previous 4 had any linkages (ie no human to human transmission evidence). Thus, this new hospital-derived outbreak is concerning.

3) it seems the Index case’s only overlap with Case #3 was on April 4th— the day they both went to the same hospital’s ER. But otherwise they were in different wards. And by the time the 3rd case went to the ICU on April 15th, the index case was already dead (died on April 11th). So it wasn’t ICU exposure. It was the ER—➡️why which why EVERYONE NEEDS TO WEAR MASKS IN THE ER DAMNIT! 🔥Image
