I am stunned that Professor John Edmunds’ revelation at #CovidInquiry this week that much of the loss of 20,000-25,000 lives in Autumn 2020 could have been avoided if Boris Johnson had listened to scientific advice is NOT headline news and front cover of every news outlet in UK.

#Earlymodern books were more than just reading material.
Yesterday I visited the Maurits Sabbe Library at KU Leuven again where Lieve Watteeuw showed me this unique hollowed out book printed in the Officina Plantiniana in 1589 with relics inside! I'm in awe 🤩
