“There will be a reduced number of members of the royal family present in order to avoid the health risks associated with large crowds.”

ie airborne pathogens.

Of which, a key risk is Covid.

Why can’t we say the word Covid? 1/

Why can’t we implement #CleanAir #HEPA & other measures to ⬇️ such ‘health risks’?

Are we really okay with ignoring airborne SARS2 while its chronic sequelae goes up, at what has been described as an ‘alarming’ rate? ⬇️ 2/

theguardian.com/world/2024/mar…
Vulnerable people everywhere are expected to do one way masking or ‘stay home’, indefinitely, to avoid crowds. But for vulnerable royals, we quietly ‘reduce’ the crowds & publicly ignore the problem?

What if they end up lifelong immunocompromised?

This isn’t sustainable.

Wouldn’t it be sensible for attendees to wear an FFP2/3 during the service? Plus #HEPA filtration used?

Indoor singing is high risk for airborne SARS2 transmission. ⬇️ (00:20:00) 4/

Choir singing with large audience. Amsterdam Concertgebouw - Bach’s St John Passion, 8th March 2020.
Would we really rather risk the health & lives of clinically vulnerable people, than admit we have a problem & role model proactive community care?

Are we okay with putting clinically vulnerable people at ⬆️ risk, indefinitely, when we have the tools to reduce this risk? 5/
Whilst clinically vulnerable people are already at ⬆️ risk of severe acute & chronic disease if infected, we are *all* potentially vulnerable to SARS2 long term sequelae.

And evidence suggests this risk rises with cumulative reinfections. ⬇️ 6/
Covid hasn’t gone away.

It’s still a global health threat. Still a pandemic.

We at least need to acknowledge it, name it, and role model safer ways of living with it.

7/7

“The best outcomes in relationships are when partners with polar extremes of safety move toward the other in a way that is a little bit uncomfortable for them”.

Where to start with this.

It is *never* okay for one partner to pressurise the other into
npr.org/2024/03/11/123…
doing something that potentially threatens their health & life.

That a psychologist (who is not medically trained), should endorse this potential harm as a necessary sacrifice for the sake of ‘compromise’, in return for the other partner’s enjoyment, is chilling beyond words.
Especially when the other partner’s side of the ‘compromise’ holds no risk of harm to them.

This is essentially collusion against the vulnerable partner disguised as ‘compromise’. But true compromise should be equitable. This isn’t it.

No disabled person should have to

“the reason he doesn't do that is that he can't afford to catch colds or an illness or the flu which would hamper his treatment.”

Covid. He can’t afford to catch Covid. In a country that has dropped *all* protections and failed to invest in #cleanair. 1/ skynews.com.au/lifestyle/cele…
Unfortunately, millions of other vulnerable people, and people who wish not to become so, are not supported in ‘staying home’, often much to their detriment. Because the illusion that the pandemic is ‘over’ (false) must be maintained at all costs. 2/
So much that could be done. #CleanAir (#HEPA) at engagement venues. Respirators for attendees. Test before attending. Stay away if sick.

An opportunity missed to demonstrate what accessibility looks like. Instead, we normalise the exclusion of vulnerable ppl from society. 3/
