#PrecautionaryPrinciple involves complete prevention of transmission and it’s the exact opposite of #SwissCheese which is exactly why “Sit tight and assess” keeps failing us.
Swiss Cheese depends upon repeatable failure, understanding death is not repeatable failure is why gamification of Public Health measures doesn’t prevent harm.
A majority of supporters of Swiss Cheese Method (SCM) have no clue SCM original purpose was an agile rapid response to determine the cause of cancers in toxicology.

“Agile” and “pivot” are great if you are working with a small team in constant contact - but, applied to millions, constantly shifting goalposts undermines the public confidence in public health policy!

@brownecfm You recently asked about individual actionable items.

The order here is wrong, this should be Ireland's top priority.

"Lobby government to change current pandemic response."
@brownecfm Ireland never implemented their Pandemic Playbook, which was used successfully in 2009 to avoid Irish massive casualties due to the H1N1 "Swine Flu" pandemic.

@brownecfm If you aren't familiar with this Pandemic Playbook. In a nutshell; simple international travel surveillance at points of entry such as international airports avoids requirements for "individual health measures".

150 years ago, people not only lived shorter lives, but people were shorter.
Pasteurization eliminated constant bovine coronavirus outbreaks.
Back then, “living with coronavirus” meant average life expectancy was 35 and average height was 10-15cm shorter.

#GeneticRecombination
This is a phenomenal thread providing explanation of SARS capability for genetic recombination.
Many experienced medical experts never properly understand how SARS reproduction is so different from other viral diseases. Genetic recombination is why. SARS reproduction occur in the cytoplasm without a template.
Virologists just stopped reading because what I just stated violates every principle of virology. SARS reproduction is flawed and should fail without a template, but instead, this failure provides increased mutational ability.

"In summary ... XBB.1.5 is the most successful XBB lineage as of January, 2023, as it has acquired the S:S486P substitution, which enhances its binding affinity to ACE2 receptor w/o compromising its remarkable immune resistance..."

This is #XBB15 avoiding the antibodies of:
- previous bAB from vaccines & bivalent vaccines
- previous bAB from natural infections
- previous bAB from "hybrid immunity"
On a scale that's not been seen in previous mutations. Image
I'd like to just confirm, for conspiracy skeptics that we absolutely created this mutation. It wasn't a lab & it wasn't China. #XBB15 was homegrown in the USA by the abandonment of simple Public Health policies and NPIs like masks, and instead focusing on a vaccine solution!

I would like to do an informal "language" poll if I may.

Does this tweet from yesterday;
- properly translate "arm or leg" as "limb" into British English?
- properly translate "positive-looking picture" into seething anger sarcasm?
I apologies for my poor English language skills in advance. I know the UK occasionally uses slang so I'm uncertain if the 133 views and 1 Like are due to improper translation errors from my translator.
Consider this outreach an attempt to seek out an improvement to our method of Public Health communication (aka Fearporn Directors, but also known as professional fearmongers).

If you’re insulted by $40 billion US in Corporate profits, you’d better be sitting down when you find out how little of that they pay in taxes!
There’s nothing fundamental wrong with some financial entity out there making record profits. The problem is 0.8% is their contribution towards the betterment of society, who for the most part pay 50% in taxes!
I don’t need to be an environmental activist to be cursing about the disparity of taxes paid by what is essentially a shell company for the Uber rich.
