Higher CO2 levels make viruses infective. A perfect storm of pandemic and climate change.

The WHO acknowledge Covid is airborne (kinda) but refuse to recommend respirators because not everyone can afford them. They would rather everyone suffer than put forward a suggestion that respirators should be free. Because it’s about money - not health.

Many on the left failed to listen to disability activists when they warned that colluding with the right to end a pandemic would enable eugenicist beliefs about illness and health to be mainstreamed culturally and politically. Now here we are

The people who told you that the way to get well was to get sick are now moaning that you're sick. What a bunch of fricking idiots.

I was a child protection worker for seven yrs-with a 100% Aboriginal caseload in the Goldfields. In that time I didn’t remove one child. I also didn’t leave a child in an abusive situation. That’s because EVERY Aboriginal family came to attention SOLELY due to struggling with…

So good that our public health settings are predicated on the unicorn hybrid immunity which “has limited impact on future COVID-19 waves with immune-escape variants” in this modelling paper. bmcinfectdis.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

The only Muslim involved in the Sydney attacks yesterday was Faraz Tahir. He was the Security guard who tried to stop the attack and who became the only Male victim. The spread his name, he saved many lives.

More evidence that ED overcrowding is associated with increased deaths. Mortality doubles for septic patients when the ED is overcrowded, although delay to antibiotics does not appear to be the reason. bmcemergmed.biomedcentral.com/articles

Name any other thing that trebles post surgical mortality that we are essentially doing nothing to prevent. We already “have the tools”. Why aren’t we using them? sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Last November I did a series of interviews on what we could expect over summer in Australia, such as this one with @samanthahawley. Things turned as pretty much exactly as we discussed. In the 4 months since, we have had in the order of 4-6 million cases, 2,000 excess deaths &…

East Antarctica 38.5C above seasonal average on March 18th. Biggest jump in temperature ever recorded at a met station - anywhere on Earth. Just staggering. Make no mistake. Anything is now possible. And I mean anything. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Worked all day yesterday in a major tertiary hospital. Lots of surgical masks, but the only other person I saw in an N95 was the infectious diseases consultant.

@GidMK You and some other epidemiologists should listen more to neuroscience. COVID-19 is very different from the flu for the brain. The type of damage in Long COVID-19 That I see in the microscope is unlike the damage I observe with influenza strains.

Instead of saying, "There's no long covid because there's also long flu," we should be saying, "Wow! We've under-recognized post-flu impacts for too long, and here's our chance to do better." Instead of ceasing to using a term, we need to add some terms. Know better, do better.

"We should stop using the term Long COVID. The disease is indistinguishable from other conditions we didn't give proper names to because we don't care about them. Please just allow us not to care about these things collectively as it's more efficient."
