Brighton and Sussex Medical School surveyed 1816 adults in the US and UK. People with joint hypermobility had a higher risk of long COVID, and those with extreme hypermobility were more than twice as likely to develop it. bmjpublichealth.bmj.com/content/3/2/...

Masking up and advocating for clean air at #UNGA w/ Violet Affleck and @myrabatchelder.bsky.social!

In late stage capitalism, this is the most powerful, possibly only effective, counter measure.

As an immigration lawyer, it seems to me that the only thing we talk about more than immigration is how we don’t talk about immigration

I know nothing about guns but surely pointing it at your own dick isn't recommended in the handbook

Night of the long knives?

Does anyone actually know what is really going on? We can speculate, but what is the real reason why the far right and the oil billionaires have pushed an anti public health agenda, particularly with Covid?

The powers that be are totally ok with you getting Covid repeatedly. They know repeat Covid infections weaken your immune system and make you susceptible to chronic illness and disability. Guess why they’re ok with it 👇 The resistance includes N95 worn in public spaces every day 😷 Protect everyone.

All I could think of was this article and how much healthcare staff have been failed. www.nursingtimes.net/respiratory/...

This Covid bug is a bugger. Nearly 3 weeks and still feeling awful . Mask up people especially at parties or crowded areas. It's not worth the risk.

What the absolute hell

One of the most painful aspects of this saga is the message that we -as law abiding tax paying immigrants and children of immigrants propping up various UK public and private sectors- are fair game to be left felt feeling fearful, unvalued, unsafe & rejected by this whole rhetoric. Who cares?

My personal view of religion is not based on discriminating between the different belief systems and cultures. I think none of them should have any role in government or law. I find it extraordinary that such privilege is based on mythology.

the reason for this ranges from "world war 3 is about to kick off" to "someone wrote 'Pete Hegseth is whack' in marker on the bathroom stall" that's just life under rear echelon motherfuckers www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

This is terrifying. Hegseth is summoning all flag officers from around the globe to Quantico the night before republicans shut down the government. Is this a final purge of dissidents? Are they going to use a government shutdown as pretext for massive domestic military mobilization?

You should do exactly this and ask them why y’all keep doing THIS. You’re being sarcastic but the reality is they’re the most problematic demographic in the voting booth.

Looks like Flu and Covid will peak together this winter. I would suggest avoiding hospital if you possibly can. They're already stretched in our local hospital and levels of both are still low: Covid Situation Report: Sep 25, 2025 open.substack.com/pub/bhawkins...

Aw for a minute I thought it possible this was Worcester, Worcestershire, but I should have known better. It's highly unlikely that any director of public health in the UK is prepared to speak up, remind people of the dangers of #Sars and recommend #masks.

People in Worcester, Mass, you're lucky you have Dr. Michael P. Hirsh. Someone who actually follows the scientific evidence.

Of course he did.

@jeremyandstormon5.bsky.social not being in the 53% of daily mail readers who obsess about the Royal family does not make someone 'wrong', Jeremy.

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right. Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

Sometimes it seems like everyone not taking protective measures against covid is just fine, getting on without the hassle. But they're not all fine. They just accept the new fatigue or the constant 'lurgy' without linking these back to covid infection.

The thing is, our democracy in uk sits upon pillars of the establishment and these can be removed swiftly within an administration. The populist tory regime began to do this. A refuk regime would utterly do it. We have fewer failsafes than the usa!

IMPORTANT 🧵 We've been seeing how RFK Jr & anti-vax lobby has been steadily and effectively reducing access to vaccines in the US. But it could happen in UK too. It's a threat worth considering given Malhotra's speech at Reform conf & big overlap between anti-vax and RW populsim. Read on! 1/11

🤯 People magazine! It doesn’t get more mainstream than that. It really helps to have “celebrity” advocates. “Violet then criticized adults for "the relentless beat of back to normal, ignoring downplaying, and concealing both the prevalence of airborne transmission and the threat of long COVID…”

"What the 𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬 is Farage doing?" That's easy to answer – he's copying Donald Trump by claiming migrants in the UK are stealing and eating swans from UK parks. It's a lie, but that won't stop some people believing every word he says

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.

I wondered if this would happen. This is the problem with lies. Eventually they contradict each other.

TikTok will be co-owned by China and Trump allies, Paramount was sold to a pro-Trump billionaire who's also set to buy Warner Bros, X is owned by an apartheid-bred fascist, WaPo and Meta are owned by Trump-cowering billionaires, and Murdoch owns the Fox empire. Here's why media has a liberal bias.

Wasn't it Bannon who said fill the zone with shit? The zone is the global media.

One of the main ways that the US was traditionally covered in the UK was the "only in America" story - tales which played to the British sense it was a bizarre place where mad people did mad things. The Express had a daily column of such stories. Maybe we should just go back to that framing.

@eddavey.libdems.org.uk Cutting vaccines = more hospitalisation and more long covid. France offers to the whole population. We are still being told to wash our hands for an airborne virus. Labour again cutting health benefits. Please call them out on their inaction on health preventions!
