The summer wave is coming to the UK & there hasn’t been a single mention of it in ANY of the NHS or management communications to the doctors here. Far from it, our managers are telling us we are “post-Covid” / “post-pandemic”.

I don’t think people ‘get it’ when it comes to asymptomatic transmission. We’ve known since early 2020 that people without symptoms—either because they haven’t developed them yet or never will—can still spread disease. But health systems around the world keep making the same

Ashley Dalton MP NHS Ed Davey A reminder this is still happening.

Wes Streeting Beat Covid? What are you talking about? We have outbreaks across 6 of our major hospital wards right now, it’s total chaos. Any wonder when you frame it as ‘over’. Patients are dying from Covid right now & others becoming disabled because of this rhetoric & your incompetence

UK Health Security Agency 86 Deaths in the UK involving SARS-CoV-2 infection were registered in the UK in the week to 06 June 2025. But you never mention these people who "sadly died"...

So apart from wanting to be exempt from environmental laws and to have any current or future fines wavered Thames Water 💧 now also want the right “to raise prices at any time before 2030”. Yep, you read that right. Seriously what is this all about at this point, what in God’s name

I’ve just tested positive for Covid . The 2nd time in 2 months, symptoms very sore throat . I thought you couldn’t get Covid twice in 2 months 😵‍💫 !! Any health professionals out there who know what’s going on with this strain . Thank you 🙏🏼

[27 Jun 2025] Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus at WHO media briefing: “We cannot talk about COVID-19 in the past tense. Although the crisis has passed, the virus remains. It continues to evolve, it continues to kill, and millions of people continue to live with post COVID-19 condition or long COVID.”

According to Matt Hancock the only people who care that he lied to the country about care home residents being safe are "campaign groups" and "politically motivated bodies". We asked for the truth. We got insults.

Oh the things you learn. 1. 21 managers at Thames Water 💧 were paid a bonus back in April out of an emergency fund supposed to be used to keep the company running. The same managers are also due to get another bonus in December this year and June next year. 2. The Secretary of

Today's Private Eye: Covid Airborne Transmission Alliance, "CATA believes the government is guilty of downplaying the airborne transmission risk of SARS-CoV-2 virus, and other airborne pathogens, therefore not providing the correct protective equipment for staff". FFP3s needed.

Remember last month when I found 3 ticks on me? Well I had one area that didn't have a tick attached, on my side.. but a red rash started spreading out around a mark/scratch/bite... I wasn't worried, it wasn't a 'bullseye', typical of Lyme Disease. I thought it must've been a

Ready at last (I think) for a busy weekend PeakDistrictArtisans event Art in the Rose Gardens Hopton Hall this weekend as part of the Month of Art.

Given COVID is an AIRBORNE virus, I wonder if NHS Grampian are implementing any IPC measures to protect against AIRBORNE transmission? 😷FFP3 respirators? 💨 HEPA air filters? 🪟 Open windows? Or are they dogmatically hoping that a bit of hand washing will stop the spread?

SARS-CoV-2 Primary Care Surveillance in England Data from the RCGP sentinel surveillance system (~2k GP Practices) to Week 39, ending 28 September 2025. The national average COVID-19 incidence rate for England has risen by 20% in the last reported week... (RCGP data & chart)

Every winter, the NHS literally CHOOSES this situation. It’s a choice. There are many simple measures they could implement to reduce all infectious disease, eg respirators, air filters, ventilation, testing, separate waiting rooms, etc. But they won’t do it. It’s a choice.
