Ooh look at that, CO2 display monitors at the #ESCMIDGlobal2024 conference poster areas. Not packed but a fair few folks in here 👍
The majority of cows will survive. It is important to continue as normal, with the healthiest cows getting infected to build up immoonity within the herd say the authors of the controversial Great Bovine-ton Declaration.

🔥Dr Rae Duncan (@Sunny_Rae1) does not hold back in this thread. She is angry. Day in, day out, she sees first hand the impact that repeated Covid infections are having on our children. If you’re a parent, YOU should be angry too. I know I am. Our children deserve better.

If, before Covid, a cardiac care doctor saw 100 patients in a week, then Covid increased the number of people needing cardiac care, the doctor would still only be seeing 100 patients a week now. Because the need has increased, but the doctor's time capacity hasn't. See?
Try thinking about it like this: there are three stages of Long Covid:
Maria Van Kerkhove, World Health Organisation (Jan 2024): “5 years from now, 10 years from now, 20 years from now, what are we going to see in terms of CARDIAC impairment, PULMONARY impairment, NEUROLOGICAL impairment?" This is an important message. Are you paying attention?
pay attention ⏬🚀
By popular request, here’s a new version of the 1st chart with March 2023 included. Note: Data from March 2023 was UK data whereas the latest data is 🏴 & 🏴 only. To present comparable data, I’ve extrapolated 92% of the UK-wide figures since 🏴 & 🏴 represent 92% of the UK pop.

Thank you to @_CatintheHat for making this simple graphic to display the problem we have here in England. We don't have a sicknote culture. We have sick children. The number of kids with Long Covid has nearly doubled in a year. GOVERNMENT DATA:
Mark my words: we are entering another SARS2 wave. I’m an occupational physician trained to see patterns at work. Looks like 1st wave-large nos people coming to work with virus-rolling around in fits of coughing, faints/collapsing, grey with nausea.1/
This graph captures in a nutshell, everything we can and should do to reduce #COVID19 infection and re-infection #Maskup in healthcare settings and mandate #IAQ measures to keep C02 levels below 800ppm So why are our leaders silent on this??? @TheBMA @theRCN @NHSEngland @rcgp
If the government is serious about wanting to address the school attendance crisis, then they need to be looking at ways to reduce the spread of illness in schools. And that means telling sick kids to stay home and also improving VENTILATION & AIR FILTRATION in classrooms.

And no, this is absolutely NOT normal. Pre-pandemic, the average illness absence rate was about 2.5%. Across the 2022/23 academic year, the illness absence rate was 3.7%. That’s nearly 50% higher than pre-pandemic! …and so far this academic year, it’s STILL at 3.7%.
And then there’s the fact that the Covid infections themselves can create lasting differences in some people's immune systems which leaves them more susceptible to other diseases like RSV. This may well be part of the reason we’re seeing a rapid rise in so many other illnesses.

And yet, the government’s latest attendance drive actively encourages parents to send sick children to school, unless they have a fever. But, as the ONS data clearly shows, around 75% of children who are infectious with Covid will NOT have a fever!
Another useful insight from the ONS data is prevalence of various symptoms amongst children who tested positive. The most common symptoms for those with Covid were: ▪️runny nose: 82% ▪️cough: 71% Fever was far less common, reported in just 25% of children who tested positive.
The aspect I’m most concerned about is the long-term damage which Covid can cause to the brain. We now know that Covid infection can lead to a plethora of new neurological symptoms, including confusion, difficulty concentrating, memory problems, depression & anxiety.

Previous ONS studies have shown that children are JUST AS LIKELY to develop Long Covid after their 2nd infection as those infected for the 1st time. Just because they’ve had Covid once & were fine, it doesn’t mean they’ll be fine the next time… ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulati…

.@1goodtern Ian’s a smart guy. He wears a good quality mask; a respirator, that also protects against #SARSCoV2 that can lead to deadly, disabling #LongCovid @brownecfm @_CatintheHat @MeetJess @Sunny_Rae1 .@luckytran @NateB_Panic .@Saffiya_Khan1 .@broadwaybabyto .@zalaly

@1goodtern @_CatintheHat Yes thanks as always to C @_CatintheHat for making stats easier to.understand. Even @GillianKeegan should be able to understand this.
@_CatintheHat How many years before JCVI admit they made a terrible mistake? Let’s look at previous cases: - HPV vax ruled out at first and then offered also to adolescent boys: 11 years… - VZV vax ruled out at first and then offered to all kids: 15 years…. 🫣
@_CatintheHat THANK YOU for sharing this !!!!! Please share it everywhere !!!! All it takes is the will to do better !
1 in every 100 children now suffer from Long Covid @Nat_E_Pearson
🚨 ONS Winter Coronavirus Infection Study‼️ 111,816 children (3-17) are now experiencing #LongCovidKids Of which nearly 21,000 have their daily activities "limited a lot"! NOTE these are approx double the rates of March 2023 when the previous survey was stopped #CovidIsNotOver
UK 🇬🇧 🔥Vital read❗️ ♦️Pls share🧵👇🏽 TY @Sunny_Rae1 #IAQ #schools #kids #LongCovidKids #edutwitter @1goodtern @drclairetaylor @HelenMMGoss @SammieFMc @Nat_E_Pearson @ELHopkins @Sandyboots2020 @Saffiya_Khan1 @LCD4A @leilamw3 @CathNoakes @Jane_Ryan_ @SalamonSMD #CovidInquiryUK
@GillianKeegan You have spearheaded a Poster Campaign to pressure sick infectious children with COVID to go to school whilst still infectious. To boost your attendance figures without addressing the cause of the low attendance which is childhood sickness. You have made ZERO 1/
If, before Covid, a cardiac care doctor saw 100 patients in a week, then Covid increased the number of people needing cardiac care, the doctor would still only be seeing 100 patients a week now. Because the need has increased, but the doctor's time capacity hasn't. See?
pay attention ⏬🚀
By popular request, here’s a new version of the 1st chart with March 2023 included. Note: Data from March 2023 was UK data whereas the latest data is 🏴 & 🏴 only. To present comparable data, I’ve extrapolated 92% of the UK-wide figures since 🏴 & 🏴 represent 92% of the UK pop.
Thank you to @_CatintheHat for making this simple graphic to display the problem we have here in England. We don't have a sicknote culture. We have sick children. The number of kids with Long Covid has nearly doubled in a year. GOVERNMENT DATA:
@crr7310 We have to stop transmission at work: Ventilation tobkeep CO2 <800ppm minimum Added filtration to remove COVID in aerosols from the air fFP2/3 respirators Isolation + sick pay+ support Workers take action on indoor workplace air pollution! greenerjobsalliance.co.uk/air-pollution/
3/ no consideration of colleagues/more vulnerable people. Overall, grotesque failure of public health. And if you’re ill, don’t come to work. Presenteeism at its absolute worst. Perhaps not surprising given Govt attitude @LongCovidSOS @JCeoltaSmith @drclairetaylor @ScribblerPen
I’ve heard this all before in 2020. ‘Worst chest infection ever’, ‘think I’m better then ill again’ (usually with new typical Covid manifestation). People shd not come to work like this and spread it around-this is a healthcare/university environment-behaviour worse than pre-2020
Mark my words: we are entering another SARS2 wave. I’m an occupational physician trained to see patterns at work. Looks like 1st wave-large nos people coming to work with virus-rolling around in fits of coughing, faints/collapsing, grey with nausea.1/
This graph captures in a nutshell, everything we can and should do to reduce #COVID19 infection and re-infection #Maskup in healthcare settings and mandate #IAQ measures to keep C02 levels below 800ppm So why are our leaders silent on this??? @TheBMA @theRCN @NHSEngland @rcgp
What is the COVID-19 airborne infection probability in an outpatient consultation with four individuals in the room ? A 🇯🇵 research team estimated this risk based on the CO2 level in the room. Calculations are also useful for measles, chickenpox, flu ... link.springer.com/article/10.100…
I tried. As did many others. This wasn’t inevitable.
Just over a year ago, ONS estimated that 62,000 children in the UK were suffering from Long Covid… enough to fill Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. One year on… where are we now? Newly released ONS figures reveal that over 111,000 children in 🏴 & 🏴 are now affected by Long Covid.
@Sunny_Rae1 @GillianKeegan And it doesn't take much to make a big difference to air quality in schools - yet the UK government refuses to do anything. They have state-of-the-art ventilation in the House of Commons to protect MPs, but they won't protect children. x.com/_catinthehat/s…
‘Covid’ may have become a taboo word, but we need to face up to the inconvenient truth that it’s making our kids sick… a LOT. ‘Living with Covid’ shouldn’t mean just ignoring it. It should mean making environments as safe as possible to reduce the risk of infection.
Latvia (population 1.9 M) monitors the indoor air quality of 14,000 classrooms in 875 schools. CO2 levels, temperature and relative humidity can be viewed freely online at: co2.mesh.lv It is one of the most advanced countries in this field and a source of inspiration.
