🤦Scaling back the COVID vaccine rollout at this time is bizarre! @profstevegriffin.bsky.social 💉COVID-19 vaccination could provide protection from serious COVID illness over winter! 😢Many are ineligible! 🤷This is not a clinical decision - it’s a policy (financial) choice. inews.co.uk/news/health/...

The Department for Education chose legally enforced in-person attendance over mass fatalities ...during a pandemic! The consequences were all too real for those in high-risk families. vm.tiktok.com/ZNdcyfcd3/

"Ministers are under pressure to U-turn on the decision to limit access to the Covid vaccine over fears it is creating a two-tier healthcare system as demand for private jabs soars." 1/ @ashleydaltonmp.bsky.social @profstevegriffin.bsky.social

When Truth Becomes Treason. First Colbert. Now Kimmel. Criticize power → get fired. That’s not democracy. It’s fascism. Read the entire truth here 👇

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

4. Bereavement & End-of-Life Support 💔 If you lost a loved one due to Covid exposure, explain how lack of mitigations contributed. Funeral restrictions (not just Covid) – Impact on grieving, inability to attend safely. Post-bereavement support – Did you feel abandoned? 7/

3. The Most Vulnerable Loss of protections for CV/CEV Lack of Covid mitigations – no masks, no air filtration Housing and homelessness– inability to safely isolate If CV/CEV AND another vulnerable group (asylum system, justice issues, homeless)any additional barriers faced. 6/

2. Key Workers (Non-Health/Social Care) If you were a key worker (teacher, transport, retail, delivery, etc.) describe: ⚠️ Workplace safety failures (no PPE, no ventilation, forced in-person work) Discrimination (lack of accommodations, job loss) Higher health risks 5/

1. General Population Impact Isolation & mental health Anxiety & depression due to risks Lack of recognition of needs Community impact Exclusion from public spaces due to lack of mitigations 4/

Module 10: "Impact of Covid on Society" (until June 2022) This is an opportunity for our families to discuss: ➡️ Isolation & mental health ➡️ Exclusion from society ➡️ Workplace discrimination ➡️ Lack of support & protections Here are issues that you might want to include.. 3/

🚨URGENT: Covid Inquiry, Have Your Say by 23rd May The Covid UK Inquiry is still collecting evidence through 'Every Story Matters', but time is running out. We were excluded from Module 9, and we need to comment on Module 10. CV/CEV families have much to contribute. 1/🧵

Here's the latest variant picture for the United Kingdom. XEC.* remains dominant, but growth has stalled at around 65-70%. The LP.8.1.* variant was flat at around 11-13% frequency. #COVID19 #UK #XEC #LP_8_1 🧵

Here's the latest variant picture for Europe (excluding the UK). The XEC.* variant is dominant, but appears to be declining after peaking at around 55%. The recent resistance from the JN.1.* + FLiRT variants appears to have faded of late. #COVID19 #EUR #XEC #LF_7_1 🧵

Here's the latest variant picture with a global scope. XEC.* variants have been declining slightly, while LP.8.1.* variants grew steadily to around 18%. #COVID19 #Global #XEC #LP_8_1 🧵

Immunocompromised people have no preventative medication and can’t rely on #Access2Antivirals. Many millions of Clinically Vulnerable people (including many former CEV), now face being excluded from vaccinations later this year - leaving them with even fewer protections. 7/

Covid has not become a seasonal virus - it remains widespread, along with other airborne pathogens. A smarter approach to ventilation would reduce the spread of infections, not just in a future pandemic but right now. Investing in clean air makes spaces safer for everyone. 6/

😅CVF are relieved to announce that we will be representing you in the final section of the UK Covid-19 Inquiry looking at the 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗲𝘁𝘆. It will consider the effects on keyworkers, vulnerable populations, bereaved, & mental health. 🧵1/12 *Stick with this*

🚗 Seatbelts were once seen as a "restriction" by some, but today with evidence & awareness, they are now considered essential for safety. 💨😷 The Covid pandemic was a missed opportunity to normalise airborne protections that protect health and save lives. 3/

The new Blood Donor Centre in the heart of Brixton will be vitally important to helping more Londoners give blood. Right now there is an urgent need for blood donors, particularly those from London’s Black communities.

This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

The other day a friend told me he’s worried there won’t be an obvious moment where everyone realizes we’re truly in the shit. Watching Musk do a Nazi salute, hearing the crowd CHEER & seeing media excuse him… I’m thinking my friend was right. Their supporters WANT this. That’s the whole problem

The news is awful right now. We’re all exhausted Please don’t underestimate the effect that this cascade of overwhelmingly awfulness has on your nervous system. Especially if you’re chronically ill. Take breaks. We will be here when you return. Give yourself grace. It’s a marathon, not a sprint.

In terms of long-term outcomes, these must not be ignored. Clinical vulnerability: 💔 Is an accessibility issue 💔 Is an equality issue ⚖️ Our rights must be legally protected 7/

🚨CMO - Prof Whitty 💉12-15 Children's vaccines: BENEFITS "Small benefit to children" RISKS "even smaller, [.] never zero" "There were wider issues, and the biggest of those was [.] education." - NO mention of the impact on children in Clinically Vulnerable families! 1/ 🧵
