I’m the only person masking but the venue is well ventilated - main poster area only 650ppm

It’s like Sisyphus pushing a rock up hill over and over #ClimateAdaptation

Good time to believe that these people are actually physically ill (but what a waste of money)

Agreed - at least it makes it clear it is not "all in their heads". It should put that hypothesis to bed and stop the UK government trying to get these very ill people "back to work"

Good to know

Quite apart from the importance of keeping knowledge alive, we are dependent on plant scientists for our food

Like Australia. It's all about bums on seats. There's already a short fall of graduates - plant science majors walk straight into jobs

I grew up in the Cold War and that didn’t seem to stop people having kids

Only give people pensions who earn less than X (indexed to cost of living) - or maybe they already happens there

I’d say a lot of people feel helpless about being able to make a difference rather than not caring

2- One of the few data sources right now is Google symptom searches. Here's the raw data for the US. I had noticed that these were increasing in many states as I was updating my website last evening.

I was an undergrad in student politics at this time. We mustn’t forget the backdrop to all of this was the Vietnam war - Whitlam govt withdraw Australia as soon as they he was elected in 1972
