“See you at #SBM2025
Actually… no, you won’t.

Still no clean air.
Still no respirators.
Still no serious action from a field that claims to care about equity, health, and science.

I’ll be fighting for those things at home—and sharing my science elsewhere.

UK's regressive tax system.
Poorest 10% of households paid 48% of income in tax; richest 10% paid 39%.

Poorest 10% paying 12% of income in VAT; richest 10% pay 3%.

Council tax: Poorest 10% paying 7%; richest 10% pay 1.2%.

No govt plans to end inequity.

A mask (an ffp2+/n95+ mask) worn properly will help stop you catching Covid, flu, rsv, measles, norovirus, whatever virus is the airborne flavour of the month.

It's amazing how many people think catching any of those is a good idea.

Hey.
Famous people with a bad chest infection.
You know why you were vulnerable to a chest infection?

BECAUSE THE COVID INFECTIONS YOU'VE HAD HAVE MADE YOU VULNERABLE TO CHEST INFECTIONS.

This is precisely what we tried to warn you about, and that you ignored.

We have all the tools but we're not allowed to use them.
Been in hosp 2 1/2 weeks w a foot infection.

This morning, I tested + for Covid (although feel well.)

I asked for Paxlovid because that really helped me two years ago. But I can’t seem to get an answer about it.

Labour can’t even mention long Covid in their ‘Get Britain Working’ White Paper but they can make time for an Assisted Dying Bill.

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in.

The owner of Twitter/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next US president is promoting a far-right Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers.

This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.
