UK 🇬🇧 is entering its 4th wave of #COVID19 in one year. Led by Conservative leaders who don’t give a damn about even hospital 🏥 admissions, vaccinating kids, school safety, all while NHS staff burnout & quit … I worry how bad this fall and winter will be. #CovidIsNotOver
Thank god at least UK 🇬🇧 saved its economy by ignoring COVID…. Oh wait…
3) Hospitalizations for #COVID surging across Western Europe, not just in UK. Autumn has barely begun. How bad will it get by winter? Unclear trajectory because we have over a dozen worrisome variants now, not a single variant wave anymore. Worried.
4) It seems hospitals in UK are buckling under the weight of record high waiting list and ER waiting times and ambulance response. I’m convinced the goal of UK conservative leadership is to make the NHS crumble so that it can blame NHS for failure and then force privatization.
5) Even scarier is that UK is actively trying to depress childhood vaccinations for #COVID19 —there’s safe & effective vaccines for kids yet it’s not mentioned at all, while kids vaccines for flu are. It’s incredibly telling. And hence why UK kids are suffering high 2022 numbers
6) All of the UK 🇬🇧 except NI is seeing surge. Not good.
7) why the UK 🇬🇧 surge? Besides no mitigation — it’s Variants bro. Variants. #Chiron (#BA2752) and #Cereberus (#BQ11) and #BN1 which doesn’t even have an informal nickname yet.
Concerning—CDC now says that 42 states are seeing rising rates of #COVID19 again—with levels high or very high in 35 states (and rising). COVID wastewater levels have already surpassed last summer’s peak and climbing fast. #CovidIsNotOver cdc.gov/forecast-outbr…
2) Substantial 28% increase in one week. Question is how high it will go. It’s a new variant (mostly KP2 and KP3 and JN1), which are evasive against past infection and past vaccines.
A girl using cover name JANE DOE testified under oath at Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal trial that she was introduced to Trump by Jeffrey Epstein when she was 14 years old. Pass it on.
Trump’s name appears 7 times in Epstein’s latest files. They regularly called each other according to phone logs. Trump says Epstein is a “terrific guy”. And he traveled on flights, according to logs, to Epstein’s island multiple times.
3) THIS STUFF IS NEW—not old Epstein-Trump info. New information regarding Epstein's child trafficking activities was released 7/2/24. Documents from 2016 are now out of date and do not show the depth of Trump's dealings with Epstein... READ MORE:
Reminder—Trump had expressed executing people on many occasions while President, according to his own Attorney General. Now the Supreme Court has green lit any official act with full presidential immunity. Germany did the same in 1933. It turned out great.
2) If we ignore history, we are bound to repeat it. How Germany became Nazi Germany in 1933….
📍 The New York Times Is Failing Its Readers Badly on Covid
📌“Example of ‘science opinion’ run amok in the [NY Times] is a piece… by Zeynep Tufekci, a commentator with no training in biological science or epidemiology… ➡️Tufekci plays into the hands of the anti-science politicians who now seek vengeance on the flimsiest of grounds.”
2) “Tufekci also adds to the ongoing pile-on about whether the directive to maintain a distance of six feet from others was needed. Although the precise distance was indeed somewhat arbitrary, there was no possibility of obtaining hard data in the relevant time frame. The six-foot distance was a reasonable assumption based on public health history, and the practice of social distancing for other respiratory pathogens, particularly those spread by droplets. It was also adopted in multiple other countries, for the same reasons.”
3) “The problem here isn’t that Tufekci is questioning the evidentiary basis of the six-foot rule—science and public health cannot progress if we don’t evaluate the results of our work. But that progress is more effective when grounded in good-faith inquiry, rather than the kinds of attacks Tufekci levels against government scientists for doing their best in desperate circumstances. This only serves to bolster the forces who seek to destroy the US public health infrastructure, not make it better.
Tufekci also leaves the impression that she alone realized SARS-CoV-2 was airborne early on. In fact, the debate about transmission was fast and furious within the scientific community at that time”
⚠️Whooping cough has smashed all records in UK🇬🇧 with barely any serious govt actions. These are NEW CASES PER WEEK, not cumulative. Each week smashing previous. Other countries rising too amid anti-vax. Pertussis is also airborne!
3) Whooping cough is also extremely contagious. For up to 3 weeks. With UK govt advising staying home for 3 full weeks if no antibiotic treatment. How many people being told that and doing that?
