Ladhani still gaslighting
How do you make it look like there's little transmission in schools?
Simples
Do a survey where you don't include the kids currently off school with covid
Has done this before, completely disingenuous, study isn't fit for purpose #edutwitter
Survey claims infection rates were low in schools yet at same point @ChildrensComm is raising concerns about the absence rates over the same time period
Granted de Souza tries to avoid mentioning covid as the cause after campaigning with UsForThem
And another, somehow students in school have a lower rate than students in the community?!
Students in school and students in the community are the same students 🤷♂️
I also think setting the Alpha wave in 2020 as a benchmark is setting the bar for success pretty damn low
Ladhani says this is a sign the measures were working, so why didn't he speak up when those measures were removed, there weren't many in June 2021 besides LFTs
And RCPCH called to end testing and isolating "healthy kids"
So they called to scrap measures they claimed weren't effective, and are now claiming how effective those measures were?
Seems incoherent to me

2. Due to a pro infection strategy particularly via schools the UK education system faced more disruption from outbreaks than seen in likes of Japan, Australia, South Korea etc
Education sacrificed by failure to control infection
Heneghan on @thelucyjohnston podcast claims he was misrepresented by BBC and that he didn't say there would be second wave, while going on to explain that he didn't think there was a second wave under his definition
2/ Heneghan runs CEBM, on its website are his media appearances thought worthwhile sharing at the time
September "just normal coughs and colds"
3/ Here he is claiming no second wave, did he really this or was he being misrepresented? If he was being misrepresented why did he post it on his own organisations website?
2/ For instance the Universities minister has blocked NUS involvement due to allegations of antisemitism while at the same point defending the right of holocaust deniers speaking at universities
Tory attitude to free speech is incoherent and asymmetrical

🧵The Tories sound like the Republicans because the Conservative Party with all its links to opaquely funded libertarian think tanks has become part of the international radical right
Examples of Tories mimicking Republicans, policies too
