If the U.S. continues to mess about with falling vaccine coverage, it will potentially undermine the effectiveness of current vaccines worldwide and cause global outbreaks.

Every infection is an opportunity for a pathogen to mutate to evade existing vaccines.

Nice work, RFK Jr., you shitbird.

The government's proposed cuts to disability benefits will deepen poverty and hardship, and push many further from work.

At the 2001 Laeken Summit, EU nations agreed to aim for a basic pension of 40% of average earnings by 2007 and work towards 60% thereafter. This was a non-binding commitment, not a directive

State pension by 2017:

£7,440 - UK
£15,811 - France
£26,366 - Germany
£26,630 - Spain

What a contrast 😱

🔥 Wood burning may feel cozy, but it’s a health hazard.
1️⃣ Air Pollution: PM2.5 and carbon monoxide cause illness including respiratory and heart problems.
2️⃣ Toxic Chemicals: VOCs and formaldehyde are carcinogenic.
3️⃣ Health Risks: Children are most vulnerable.

Think before you burn.

Just spoke with my CDC sources.

RFK Jr. has reportedly instructed officials to stay silent on bird flu transmission and avoid testing farm workers with symptoms.

This is a direct attempt to suppress vital information.

Pandemics begin with secrecy and cover-ups.

Thank you for bravely sharing your story Molly and speaking out on behalf of the hundreds of thousands affected 🙏🏽

I feel increasingly disconnected from the party I voted for and had such high hopes for.

Did we give them a mandate to cos-play Reform-lite?

I want them to lead and argue for their vision instead of chasing polls.

Oh and charge me more income tax instead of penalising kids & disabled people

Can @teamlabouruk.bsky.social consider informing on clean air to reduce sickness and offering vaccines. Rather than sending health workers out to homes! This isn’t going to reduce #Longcovid. When are you going to recognise it’s an enormous problem!
