‘Prescription drug shortages are deeply worrying for patients’ physical health, alongside the stress of not knowing if an essential medicine will be available. Several factors contribute to the problem. The Brexit agreement is one of them.’ Denis Campbell theguardian.com/society/articl…

Deliberately limiting COVID boosters to specific age or risk groups is questionable UK Health Security Agency. We all need protection from the short-term consequences of COVID infections as well as Long COVID. The option is surely as important as vaccination against Flu, Measles, or Whooping Cough?

Two hypotheses, only one of which is ever invoked:

1) Immunity debt: You all didn't get sick enough with flu and RSV in 2020-2021.

2) Immunity theft: COVID infection makes things worse.

50,000 children in Gaza now need treatment for *acute* malnutrition. That’s 2,500 school classrooms of kids. Instead of consuming photos of these child victims, imagine your own children. Imagine, concretely, what it would take for your child to become acutely malnourished.

Mask up indoors, especially when crowded with poor ventilation.

Mask up in hospitals.

Mask up on airplanes.

Mask up on buses.

And clean the air FFS.

'Too many children with long COVID are suffering in silence. Their greatest challenge? The myth that the virus is 'harmless' for kids'

In Australia, the lack of awareness is biting in shocking ways. Too many children with long COVID are being dismissed..

If you test positive on a covid test and you don't have any symptoms at all, it means a part of your body that is designed to react to viruses didn't even know the virus was there or your body didn't react properly.

An outstanding piece on Long Cövid Kids.

Putrino Lab is absolutely correct. When the Kool Aid was passed around that kids rarely get sick, don't have 'as many hACE receptors' and other BS, paediatrics seemingly lost interest. This was an adult disease.

What a huge mistake☠️💥

NHS privatised.

60% of NHS cataract operations outsourced to private providers.

Private clinics received £700m for cataracts from 2018-19 to 2022-23.

30%-40% of money vanishes in profits. Public purse fleeced.

Say no to privatisation of the NHS.

Sweden has immunity debt????

(Sarcasm. This is not immunity debt… it is probable evidence of a well known phenomenon where children are more prone to bacterial infections after certain viral infections.)

Important: social insurance schemes (as in much of Europe) are similar to NHS; MARKETPLACE insurance schemes are similar to US care.

The moment Farage disclosed his intention to end universal access to healthcare his political career should have ended

Privatisation of the NHS would lead to paying an “excess” each time you use the health service

Millions would go without treatment

He is far from a patriot!

A key reason ventilation upgrade funding and Indoor Air Quality regulation is still stalled in most countries despite the mounting death toll and surging ranks of the medically disabled:

Our leaders would have to admit their grievous errors and might be held accountable!
