Watched the #BBCPanorama programme about long Covid.

Layla Moran said there should be compensation for those disabled at work by Covid / long Covid.

But the programme gave the impression that this is all historical.

Covid/long Covid is still happening, the pandemic isn’t over.
No mention was made of the ways we could reduce the burden of Covid / long Covid by reducing the risk of catching Covid, for example through clean air.

Labour don’t get it either, do they?

Pat McFadden was talking on the @BBCNews channel about getting people back to work “after Covid”

#CovidIsNotOver

Can I suggest you read this 👇 thread please @patmcfaddenmp
Having said that this 👇 is encouraging.

But we can’t wait for a Labour Government for a Clean Air Bill, we need it now.

Also there’s no mention of Covid in that clip.

This thread is exactly what many of us have been saying for a long time. The Tories are bad at everything, that includes their ‘let it rip’ Covid policy

The @WHO have just declared that the Covid pandemic remains a Public Health Emergency.

The Government do nothing to mitigate Covid / long Covid

Why is it that it’s only one or two MPs that speak out about Covid?

Where are the official Opposition @UKLabour on this issue?
"We are all playing Covid roulette. Without clean air, the next infection could permanently disable you"

"As rich people plough money into ventilation to protect themselves, those with long Covid are treated as an embarrassment"
