🔴 Sir Keir Starmer, the leader of the Labour Party, says:

Sir Keir Starmer says Boris Johnson has violated 'basic decency'

👑 Last week, the most famous revenge dress of all time was recreated on the set of The Crown.

🔴 The Telegraph can reveal the 5 NHS England trusts where patients who died with Covid were most likely to have caught the disease at hospital.

Search your postcode to see the number of hospital acquired infections in your nearby NHS England trusts 👇
telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/11/0…
The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust topped the list, after 213 patients who had been admitted for other illnesses “probably” or “definitely” caught Covid on its wards, accounting for a third of all the trust’s Covid deaths Image
📈Whilst some of the areas on the list had high numbers of Covid cases in the community, driving up infection rates in hospital, the high rate of Covid deaths linked to hospital-acquired infections is likely to spark concerns

💉Almost a year since the UK became the first country in the world to approve a clinically-tested Covid jab, cracks are starting to show.

A complex patchwork of vaccine rules have created no end of confusion

Thread 🧵👇
telegraph.co.uk/health-fitness…
Currently, teens in the UK aged 12 to 17 are eligible for a jab – but healthy teenagers can only receive one dose.

➡️Countries like Canada and Germany require children over 12 to be double-jabbed to avoid quarantine
❌This is leaving families divided across oceans.

Tanja Hoffman, a Canadian who lives in the UK, planned to fly home this Christmas to visit her 80-year-old mother and 83-year-old mother-in-law.

Now, those plans are on hold

❌ Microplastics are “one of the greatest manmade disasters of our time”, according to the Natural History Museum.

That’s bad news, given they are also everywhere; in tap water, the food you buy, the clothes you wear and the air you breathe

Thread 🧵
telegraph.co.uk/health-fitness…
👁️ The largest microplastics can be seen by the naked eye, but many of them are small enough to act like specks of dust which we can inadvertently breathe in or eat in food.

The smallest particles are called nanoplastics - they can make their way deep into the human body
🔬New findings from the University of Portsmouth found that that we might be breathing in up to 7,000 microplastic particles a day
