WARM HUBS NEED FRESH AIR || @SomersetCouncil’s Public Health Department has published this ⭐️ outstanding ⭐️ poster for warm hub organisers in #Somerset. A thread 🧶 1/
✅ There is a clear message on ventilation, how to measure it, and when action is needed
🚨 >1,500ppm is “UNSAFE” 2/
✅ There is also a clear message on masks👇 3/
✅ There is even a clear message on air filtration where good ventilation proves difficult to achieve👇 4/
So, to end my TED Talk: open the windows and filter the air - washing your hands and hoping for the best is NOT enough
📢📢📢 If any warm hub organisers want my help measuring the CO2 in their warm spaces then get in touch - I am happy to bring my monitor to you 5/5

UK GOES IT ALONE… (with 🇸🇪) || In September 2022 the @ECDC_EU published a detailed, country-by-country report on Covid vaccination strategies across Europe. The UK is doing it differently… A short thread 🧶 1/
First: see this map. UK is in grey because we’ve turned our backs on Europe - worse still, we’ve not just decided to go it alone geopolitically and economically but, it seems, medically as well👇 2/
…because, as of September, the Covid vaccine programme for children ended for those turning 5 from now on. They can’t get it unless clinically vulnerable or living with someone who is. This makes us an outlier in Europe where nearly everyone else is vaccinating ALL (bar 🇸🇪) 3/
As expected - now my campaign for clean air in #Somerset schools blows up (ha), I am coming under fire in all directions. Important, I think, to clarify a few things. A 🧵… gofund.me/3691a0c0

1️⃣ It’s not “my idea” and I didn’t just make it up. I’m quite literally standing on the shoulders of giants. Namely doctors and scientists in the 🇺🇸 like @JimRosenthal4 and @CorsIAQ; as well as @rhysthomas, @PeteUK7 and others in the 🇬🇧

Over the last few days I have faced some criticism for my Air Filters for #Somerset Schools campaign👇🏻 Please donate! 🙏🏻
One such criticism is that I should be raising money for more school resources as that’s a bigger priority (a🧵) 1/ gofund.me/3691a0c0
My response to this? Imagine a school didn’t have any fire extinguishers or fire alarms. It had them last year (and the year before), but it got rid of them this year because all the adults are fire-safety trained now anyway
2/
Now imagine there’s a fire. It’s only small, but it’s coming our way. Someone notices, and says we should probably get some fire blankets and extinguishers back in the classroom as a precaution
“No”, someone cries, “you shouldn’t do that until teachers are better paid.”

🚨🚨🚨So, here it is folks. Please help me raise £13,500 to build HEPA air filters for every junior school and nursery setting in #CokerDivision that wants them👇🏻
