Good coroners have always been braver than many realise. It’s powerful to see many of them daring to go there and critiquing the role of the Lockdowns in the decline of an individual’s mental health ⁦@NCISH_UK⁩ ⁦@RealDeniseWelchbbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
As I have said before - hospital data is useful - but it is no replacement for waiting for inquest @ProfLAppleby

We are about to be collectively gaslit about the Spring of 2020 and what really happened. It will be implied that your memory was the problem, not the rules. This is a common experience dealt out from governments to both disaster and conflict survivors and responders. A few tips:
Tip 1. Don't get angry. We are in the middle of a hard, deep Winter. Anger produces adrenaline and cortisol and you have produced enough of them already over the last 24 months. They make you ill. Instead, get informed [see below].
Tip 2. Understand why weak governments (and more often Dictatorships) have to rely on these tactics. When something is built up through personality and bluster and fear, it can only be deconstructed in a similar way.

@BBCNews @Ofcom Pointing to severely ill patients in beds as either vaccinated or unvaccinated in a news report is unethical and horrible. This segment should never have been commissioned or aired. I worry about any medic who thought this was ok or agreed to participate.
This is an #ItsASin moment

Nadine, love, Summer of 20 people were being told not to sing at funerals or allowed to go to a church service. So you might want to reconsider this as a defence

Britain actually has a bit of a history of exceptionalism in disaster response, although there may often be parity with the USA. We are a country know for our fast “recovering” - it is alleged that on the night of the Boston marathon bomb… independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
..commanders motivated with statement that “tonight we do a London”. A reference to the fast pace of our “return to business as usual in the Summer of 2005”…We also have a long history of going our own way in international Disaster Victim Identification operations (see my book!)
Our “outlier” position can look like an obvious sign of just how bad our response is (and history will be the judge of that)… but I am not sure it’s necessary the gotcha moment that it’s being portrayed as here.

When an area is about to flood responders use “placebo sandbags”. Bags of sand that are dropped off to filter out a bit of the waste from the water and slow the deluge by about 10 mins. So why drop them off? Because it keeps the about-to-be-flooded briefly quiet and makes….
it LOOK like the responders are doing something to help. First thing that elected local politicians will often demand is a show of delivering the bags. A soggy cloth mask or a poorly fitting surgical mask makes limited difference to infection control but is a comforting placebo
Delivery of placebo by state can also be used to justify all sorts of inaction. What really makes difference in flood is long term infrastructure and societal investment - like what would have made some diff to our pandemic experience- long term investment in NHS and social care

I have raised concerns about the way that death data has been used to terrorise from the start. Reviews underway this week seem to be highlighting concerns that many of us have shared since March 20.But I want to make one thing very clear…
My colleagues in death planning care have seen more loss than ever before. The data is not relevant to them. What is- that death from many causes in hospitals and at home has been relentless for 2 years.They have been the difference in this disaster as I always knew they would be
Many of them have been taunted with “where are all the bodies then?” The dead are in their careful care. We do not fully understand the debt that we owe them but trust me when is say it’s huge. @AAPTTweets @TheEPS1
