We have a group of lovely birthing groups and parenting groups that use some of our building regularly, and I get to chat to them - women who are pregnant and women who have young babies.

They are *in a bad way*.
In one of the expectant mothers groups, two of the nine had to stop work early due to complications in their pregnancies.
I sometimes hear things like that and wonder to myself if it is actually something that is becoming more common, or whether it's my imagination.

The problem with science denial is that once you start, you just can't stop.

When you deny any science, you switch on an overrule function in your brain that you can use on any information you dislike.

The more you use it, the more effective it becomes.
And the more detached from reality your brain becomes.
I'm not kidding.

It's absolutely time to talk more about this.

This kind of scabies that they're describing in here is *horrific*, and it's a result of *a weakened immune system*.

But LadBible are mistaken to think that it's just in Devon...
It's everywhere here.

But there's worse news... Image
It's not just scabies that's a problem...
It's the weakened immune system that's a problem...

Which then makes all the other similar infestations also a problem.

If by 'growths on my eyeballs' she means pterygium, then here's the chart for that in England. Image
If, on the other hand she means conjunctival deposits...

Here's that bad boy: Image
Covid infections... they're a bad idea, I tell you.

😮I want to smash something.
I've just stumbled across the official NHS coding guidance for U07.3 - 'Personal history of Covid-19' - and it left me on the floor.

🚨When paired with the data on the number of times it is currently used, it is a huge unknown national scandal. Image
The ICD-10 codes are the codes that are entered into NHS hospitals activity databases.
So when someone gets healthcare, it's for a reason, so they look up the code for that reason, and put the code into the database.
They're supposed to put this code, U07.3, into the databases when a past diagnosis of Covid (confirmed or probable) "influences the person's health status". Image

There's absolutely zero doubt in my mind that things have changed.

But *how*?

I've been sharing a lot of these graphs over the last month, but each chart looks at the *small* picture.

I have a big picture brain.
So here's a thread about the *big* picture. Image
You can see in this image charts with loads of different *shapes*.

They all chart the same time span.
They're all from the same geographical area and age range.
They all chart the same type of data - 'hospital episodes'. Image
That last bit is important.
These are *hospital episodes*.
That's the number of episodes of *hospital treatment or consultation*.
