Science has brought us solutions to #COVID infections but our government isn’t using the science. Here are the things the Tories could be doing to prevent infections, instead we are all suffering a constant round of exposure.
The Tories sold off VMIC. This was a flagship vaccine development centre bmj.com/content/376/bm…
They have been giving constant advice on hand washing but failed to informed the Public that Covid is an airborne virus.
#COVIDisAirborne Here is a recent video of Dr Fauci talking about this.
Why haven’t our governments rolled out #Airfilters? The study in Italy showed an 82% reduction in infections by having them in the classrooms and it broke transmission chains between families.
We should also be wearing #N95 masks. Here is an excellent thread on masks
Johnson was willing to accept 50k deaths a year. What a truly dreadful thing to say. What about prevention? dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9…
Learn to live with COVID was sold to the Public as it being a mild infection we could all live with. There is no long lasting natural immunity, we keep catching it over and over.
We were told that vaccines were enough but because infections were allowed to spread this undermined our vaccines as new mutations have come along. Now we are at risk from breakthrough infections. Moving forward UKHSA don’t even plan to give vaccines to most of the population.
500k people were never given Evusheld so haven’t ever finished their lockdown. They have no protection against the virus. Many CEV/CV both children and adults are not being offered the Spring booster. We aren’t all ‘in this together’ some of us have a very leaky boat.
No #COVID infection should be thought of as ‘mild’ remember it’s a novel virus and there are now so many variants. We are still learning about it. Why roll the dice on your health when you don’t know how it’s going to land?
Then there is the argument I hear all the time ‘I’ve had COVID before/Most people have had it and been ok’. You have a 20% risk of getting long covid after any infection, that risk increases with each infection.
Then there are also long term risks from #COVID Why aren’t these risks being discussed?
Disinformation was spread to shape the argument for school return.. levernews.com/how-dark-money…
While we all go to work and school without #Airfilters MPs have clean air in Parliament. purifiedair.com/case-studies/p…
To protect yourself wear an N95 min preferably with head straps. Use Airfilters in shared air spaces and ventilate by opening windows. #Covidisairborne

Very concerned about vaccine choice in the UK moving forward. Vaccines are being stopped for many clinically vulnerable people who may well die as a consequence. The UK government has been heavily influenced by anti-vax disinformation and this has led to a lack of support for ..
Clinically vulnerable adults and children. How children with severe Asthma/lung conditions can be denied protection is disgraceful. 500k people have been left with no protection as they never had Evusheld. This is never on the news. I think it’s a breach of human rights..
To deny people protection. Politicians seem to be totally ignoring this they are failing to support their constituents. Shielded children went without vaccines for 20 months. Now the same children face having no vaccines again.

Another example of the constant disconnect we are seeing. No wonder everyone is confused on #COVID. Biden is declaring it’s over but clearly it isn’t. The Tories are pretending it’s over but it’s not and much more importantly they are telling us all to continue to accept …
An endless round of preventable infections which they are pretending are no worse than the flu. Omicron has been deadly, please read the study below. Then after the initial infection there are long term health risks.
All of this is totally unnecessary if the governments rolled out #Airfilters and mitigated for the #Airborne infection that it is. One day we will have better vaccines but that day isn’t now.

The choice is simple: wear a mask and roll out #Airfilters or risk long term health complications. Over 65 million have long covid, denying reality is not good for our economy, NHS or children’s long term health. Personally I don’t want to risk heart, lung or brain damage.
The problem with covid is moving forward vaccines are being stopped and many are catching it a couple of times a year. It’s not as though we are gaining long term lasting immunity.

#COVID can cause problems with attention other neurological problems. Children should not be catching covid.

So now we know that Omicron wasn’t mild, which MP is going to confront the Tories on this and the continued deaths of the vulnerable from HAI of covid? cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/covid…

Summary ‘Learn To Live With it’

Wall of immunity but no vaccines for majority of population moving forwards
No testing
No masks in hospitals

Would we feel happy getting ‘natural immunity’ from Measles or TB?

Natural immunity = Rolling the dice on long term risks.
There are several million people who are CEV/CV and we already have health conditions. We don’t want to catch #COVID AT ALL because it comes with long term health risks.

Some CEV haven’t got ANY protection from COVID they are high risk.
What’s the plan @SteveBarclay @wesstreeting Why didn’t you consider long term health risks and long covid in your plan? CEV/CV adults and children need access to vaccines. Not getting vaccines is risking more health problems #EssentialMedicine
