The pervasive cultural belief that everything is awful risks actually making it so, @nytdavidbrooks argues: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Please please spread the word about the Elephant in the room project. It is all about mental health. I was so honoured that President Michael D signed the Elephant for the Samaritans and for me. There will be twenty elephants and hopefully this project will raise lots of money.

@alanloftus @HSELive I actually just got commissioned to voice two short videos for kids on this topic by @midlandsscience. Only a small thing, but hopefully HSE would start a bigger campaign. You're 100% right that it's a big issue among many people. youtu.be/gUmteyEOJ3c
I’ve been — technically correctly — fined €15 for parking in Skerries by @BleeperActive Can I ask local councillors for bicycle parking at the Square or somewhere close by? Kind of defeats part of the point of Bleeper if there’s no parking near your destination.
As we go into the third year of the pandemic, the New Scientist team has been delving deep into what we can expect in 2022. I urge you: do not expect the pandemic to end next year. Let’s all go into the new year with realistic expectations.
COVID sitrep for New Year’s Eve: The wave of omicron variant COVID-19 infections continues to spread around the world. Hospital admissions are rising across the UK but there are important differences to earlier waves…. 1/12
With Omicron, there's been the emergence of 2 different camps with opposite perspectives. I've tried to summarize them here
We’ve reached a million documented cases IN ONE DAY. I’ll keep saying this: until we #maskup and attend to air quality and vaccine equity, this pandemic is going to keep getting worse. If hand sanitiser was the answer, we’d be over this beast by now.
#Omicron is posing all sorts of new problems, not seen before in this pandemic. The hyper transmissibility is causing a nightmare with staff absence, and it's extremely difficult to contain within hospital wards. It may cause less severe disease,but it's causing absolute chaos
This is my opinion on classrooms given the coming Omicron surge for which there are new vaccines in the pipeline
You know it's a good day in the pandemic when: —The 1st anti-Covid pill is cleared —More indications that Omicron is associated with less severe illness and tends to come down from its big surge as quickly as it ascends —The 1st pan-coronavirus vaccine is ready for Phase 2 trials
This is a great article and the 3 days ‘exposure to symptoms’ explains much of the fitness advantage. This is what we are seeing here in NY with 2-3 days from exposure then symptoms and a positive test. theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
I haven’t waded into mask conversation bc I decided that to make a difference, I would keep on one major topic - tests (plus a 2nd being vax immunology Bc that’s what I usually study) That said: WHY? in all high hell doesn’t every American have a box of free N95s at this point!
Let’s try and turn that privilege into something positive: Let’s look out for others. Let’s support those most in need of support in the coming weeks even if they made decisions we disagree with. Let’s help people by spreading good information from trusted sources.
@BillHanage I understand the frustration at the unvaccinated. I feel it. But they are part of our community. If a lot of these people end up in hospital (plus lots of staff out sick), then healthcare is likely to collapse and that will affect you too. And your neighbour and your parents.
The B.1.1.529 SARS-CoV-2 variant was first reported on 24th November 2021, and 2 days later @WHO designated it #Omicron. Since then we (me @_nickdavies @cap1024 @markjit and John Edmunds) have worked to understand potential consequences for England. 🧵 [cmmid.github.io/topics/covid19…]

Some teachers on social media selling revision booklets to parents of primary school kids referencing upcoming standardised tests. Wildly inappropriate doesn't even describe it. If you know them, gently advise them this is a Teaching Council complaint waiting to happen.
The failure to pursue a criminal Investigation in to Stardust involving the deaths of 48 working class young people in 1981 is a shocking indictment of the lack of concern by successive governments… Fair dues to the families in pursuing this. @Stardust

Our new report on a topic that's proved stubborn despite 3 decades of improvement strategy in health & care. It's about demonstrating & defining the value arising from quality or continuous improvement (CI) activity, particularly economic value. In the report, we summarise the…
1. In Sydney, a mother & child were stabbed by a mentally ill white man, Joel Cauchi 2. When a brave security guard, Faraz Tahir, a Muslim refugee, stepped in to save them, Cauchi killed him 3. Top British media figures blamed the deaths on Muslims 4. Their tweets are still up

I grew up in Birmingham,born to parents who loved drugs more than me! I had a baby at 16,was homeless & helpless-I am now a university lecturer-I have grants, publications,a loving family & a full heart! Poor is my thank you to the people who saved me! waterstones.com/book/poor/katr…
Age 5,there was a darkness in my chest from not being loved. My 1st teacher, Ms Arkinson,changed that. She taught me to wash,that I was enough,that I was worthy. She placed a light in my chest that has never gone out! Today,I got to meet her again. Today, I said thank you!
“Not a penny more of public money should go into these companies.” Environmental campaigner Feargal Sharkey says shareholders who have “ram-raided” water companies should pay for cleaning up the UK's rivers, lakes and bathing waters.
So sad. Such a magnificent support in recent years for the Stardust families. Rest in peace Charlie.
Sad to hear the news that Irish broadcasting legend Charlie Bird has passed away. Charlie, who raised millions after his own MND diagnosis, joined Rhinos legend Kevin Sinfield on his 7 in 7 in 7 Challenge in Dublin in December, rest in peace Charlie
Rest in peace, Charlie 🙏 A pleasure to have you and Kevin drop by HQ recently as part of @IMNDA fundraising efforts 🏃♂️ Thinking of Claire and all of Charlie’s family and friends. You can still donate: bit.ly/3Gszo5g Codladh sámh, Charlie.
