Sorry, but this last year has been characterized by Public Health generally stting the bed. Make exercise difficult, lock people in their houses with not much else to do other than drink and eat and simultaneously drive people's mental health of a fking cliff. I had very little time for Public Health before this, but now I'd suggest firing them all out of a cannon into the sun.

To be honest that seems a little harsh to tar all of public health advocates with the same brush. it's not entirely their fault that utter loons like Sridhar have got themselves regularly in the news being touted as 'professor of public health' of whatever silly title they have. There are quite a few people who have quite admirably tried their best to maintain sight of the actual goal at hand ie actual public health rather than self aggrandizement and/or virtue signalling. stefan baral on twitter makes for a very different line in terms of public health messaging than sturgeon's pet professor for example....

Richard Fuller MP does a good speech in Parliament on how they should think on whether they have 'imperilled the meaning of liberty for decades to come' while ruling by executive order with little data transparency (amongst other things):

I wonder if he's on the Covid Recovery Group.

I despair that he and they appear to be just shouting into the void - the total lack of defence of our liberties by the vast majority of MPs (elected as representatives of us...) makes me want to weep. Do they not have children and grandchildren they want to grow up free? Or do they want them to grow up expecting to be grilled at every street corner on why they are outside??

Just... words fail me.

Some of those graphs are hilarious - how can anyone claim masks work when the graphs have soaring case numbers in areas with strong mask rules?

Let me guess - it's people wearing them wrong / not wearing them / some other nonsense...

In fairness I've started following Baral fairly recently and he does seem far more rational than most in this debate - in fact he posted recently that whilst some of the celebrity PH figures will move on after this crisis into whatever they can use next to get their faces on TV, he and other lifelong PH figures will have to start picking up the pieces and rebuild trust with the public. I can't help wondering which Feigl-Ding he was referring to there

Just a shame Baral is based over in the US, we could really use him over here tbh.

So I'm happy to rephrase it, I wouldn't fire all of them into the Sun, just most of them, especially the ones who appear to be using the opportunity to get on TV. Oh, and PHE who have had a shocker pretty much the whole way through this.

Dutch police break up a really quite large peaceful anti-lockdown protest in the Netherlands - looks like the same tactics as the UK police.

First dose of Oxford University's Covid vaccine causes twice as many side-effects as a single shot of the Pfizer jab, analysis of 700,000 Brits suggests

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9322079/F...

DM said:

Data from the Covid Symptom Tracking Study found 30 per cent of Britons given the UK-made vaccine suffered mild symptoms including headaches, fatigue or fever.

This was compared to about 15 per cent of people who reported side effects in the days and weeks after receiving the Pfizer jab.

People with blood type A are at greater risk of catching Covid-19 because the virus can bind more easily to their respiratory cells, study reveals

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-93...

DM said:

Researchers investigated how virus binds to red blood cells of type A, B and O

Found the virus cannot directly inject any red blood cells irrespective of group

But antigens on other cells of type A people have higher affinity for SARS-CoV-2

This means throat and nose cells of type A people are more susceptible to infection with SARS-CoV-2 than others

Interesting Israeli news article on 'green passports' and their various implications:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q28rBsHHtlE



Doesn't really go either way in the end, but rather talks about opposing viewpoints. You know, like what journalists are supposed to do rather than what the BBC does.
