This is massively important - as the Inquiry draws towards its finish (~late 2027?) it's essential that the public & core participants understand what measures are to be put in place to ensure that appropriate monitoring of, and independent checks made on Governments' progress.๐Ÿ‘‡
One of the most important decisions made before the UK Covid Inquiry @covidinquiryuk heard a single witness was how it would be structured. This is the first thread in a series examining the decisions that shaped the Inquiry before evidence was heard. ๐Ÿงต

The former @WelshLabour Government launched a "Covid-19 Inquiry Implementation Dashboard" back on 7 April this year. But it was slipped onto the website quietly, with zero public announcement, zero press release, and zero ministerial statement. gov.wales/covid-19-public-inโ€ฆ

My father contracted COVID in hospital & died in Oct 2020 Since then I've spent years immersed in UK Covid Inquiry hearings, evidence, reports & government responses. One question matters more to me than any other: How do we know if the right changes are actually happening? ๐Ÿงต

WHO have just issued a new update on the Hantavirus outbreak. Iโ€™m very pleased to see them explicitly stating in this latest update that: โ€œANDV transmission may include [โ€ฆ] AIRBORNE transmission (via inhalation of infectious respiratory particles)โ€ who.int/emergencies/disease-โ€ฆ
Replying to @_CatintheHat
Importantly, detailed investigations into this Andes Virus outbreak in Argentina in 2018 clearly revealed that multiple transmissions had taken place WITHOUT CLOSE CONTACT. The table below summarises the circumstances of these transmissions โฌ‡๏ธ

This is a 'bias to contact' in action... Only consider airborne if there was an absence of direct contact... (and indirect contact)

Pro-Tip: When a pathogen (A) spreads via โ€œClose contactโ€ and (B) infects anywhere in the respiratory system, this means that the pathogen is AIRBORNE. Mask. Filtration. Ventilation. Clean the air.
HANTAVIRUS OUTBREAK In yesterdayโ€™s WHO press briefing, Maria Van Kerkhove announced several BIG changes to their recommendations. ๐ŸšจALL passengers & crew from the MV Hondius should now be classed as HIGH-RISK contacts & be isolated for 42 days. For details, see thread below โฌ‡๏ธ

The whole IPAC PRECAUTIONS paradigm used in healthcare is fundamentally wrong It's been wrong for decades So long in fact that it's become enshrined in stone Fossilized Immutable Regarded as a Universal Truth In reality it's a Fundamental Lie

Cleaner air in schools improves health, reduces absence & is linked to better learning outcomes, making it one of the rare interventions that benefits everyone every day. HEPA filters are low-cost & quick to deploy. Why are we even talking about it? Why arenโ€™t we just DOING it?
Incredible speech delivered by Baroness Linforth in the House of Lords today calling for clean indoor air in schools. โ€œIt would cost less than a tenner per child per year to provide pupils and staff with clean air - about the same cost as a coffee and a cake.โ€ โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿง

This from the Group of 36. I would add: Organisations who fail to acknowledge scientific realities should face consequences. The @WHO should NOT be allowed to use disclaimers on any document regarding transmission or precautions. 1854 โ€ข CID 2023:76 (15 May)

But the media arenโ€™t interested in the disaster caused by failure to recognise and mitigate airborne transmission of C-19 or any other respiratory infection. CATAโ€™s exposures of tampering with IPC minutes is a good example of the lack of MSM interest.

This is a "must read"! Tern started off identifying 10 diseases that are on the increase but it seems that as he researched further he discovered more and more - ending up with well over 60 WORRYING. Be sure to click "more replies" when you see it ('X' limits thread length)

If covid infections make you *more vulnerable* to almost every other pathogenic infection by multiple mechanisms, then you'd expect increases in almost every other pathogenic infection. And that's what we see. Ten completely unsurprising news stories:

The disclaimer by @WHO There is no point or safety in following the @WHO because this disclaimer means every country has to have guidance for which people are accountable.

BECAUSE IT'S AIRBORNE AND IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN. I still wonder why the WHO lied through their teeth saying it wasn't airborne for all those years.

Again @UKHSA @NHSE every single respiratory disease that you have down as "close contact" and or "droplets" needs evidence after the MoT used for droplets was considered to Defy Physics (Marr & Tang). What we have here are assumptions of safety Look @UKHSA you have no citations

The 5 micron definition used by UKHSA and IPC cell was debunked by Prof Beggs in his C-19 Inquiry expert witness evidence. Correct definition is around 100. So called droplets are aerosols! And 80% virus is in small aerosols, not large droplets.
