@AMPropHomeServ @upperkingkenny @JimmyCully @KellyCates @Alan_Kennedy3 Amazing this... Thanks @JimmyCully . No idea if I didn't speak or spoke and got cut out 😂

@upperkingkenny @JimmyCully @KellyCates @Alan_Kennedy3 @hal_cohen This is unbelievable! Incredible work hunting this out. They other interview was on sky news, I think??

🚨 RARE SKY SPORTS 2005 PARADE FOOTAGE 1/2🚨 This is the 1st of @KellyCates tremendous coverage of the parade in 2005. Great interview with @Alan_Kennedy3 early on in this piece with fan interviews and footage of one of our most memorable parades ever. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🇹🇷

@Tonys_N2 @uclh @CwynKate So sorry for your loss

It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we announce the passing of our lovely mum Efi. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by family after a short illness. We are forever grateful to the amazing @uclh team for their exemplary care, compassion & sensitivity. @CwynKate

@Tonys_N2 Sorry to hear this, hope you're all doing ok

We will be closed on Monday 23rd October. Sadly our Mum is seriously ill and is in critical care. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused.

@Kelly_Ducourty Thanks for the kind words and for sharing on my story!

My fellow Googler @hal_cohen knows a thing or two about resilience... the Liverpool native continues to tackle life's challenges, all while remaining a supportive husband, father, and colleague. This ⭐ will continue to burn bright. Read his story 👇cloud.google.com/blog/topics/in…

A privilege to be at the Evusheld vigil yesterday, supporting the #Forgotten500K still shielding and taking precautions due a lack of response to vaccines and campaigning for government to provide Evusheld (drug that prevents / reduces impact of Covid). @FionaCLoud @kidneycareuk

Today we launch our national campaign to get Evusheld for the #Forgotten500k alongside @Evusheld4theUK and 15 other charities. Please retweet and help us press the government to roll out Evusheld for the immunocompromised. See what we’re doing here 👇getevusheld.uk/500k/

@JemmaFreeman3 @AberdeenQuinie @evusheld4theuk Assume you had direct number for CMDU and weren't trying via switchboard? I managed to find a PDF which lists all CMDUs in country. I'm definitely now worried if I get it again and what's is available / will work. I can't have Paxlovid anyway, we need Evusheld now

@JemmaFreeman3 @AberdeenQuinie @evusheld4theuk I had similar to this in March and my mum (also immunocompromised) had it this week. For, I managed to get hold of CMDU to understand process and then guide my GP to make a referral. For my Mum, no one got in touched as promised and 119 didn't help. Luckily she's ok so far. 1/2

1.Have been trying to help a clinically extremely vulnerable, immunosuppressed friend #antivirals for covid. What a shit show. 119 doesn't work. The CMDU is uncontactable at St. Georges Hospital. After 50mins wait on hold the answer I got was "I don't know how it works...

@kallmemeg Many of us immunocompromised in the UK can get the antivirals / monoclonals if we test positive (outside of PANORAMIC). However, we're missing these drugs being available for prophylaxis and we have no long acting antibodies like AZ Evusheld, which is available in other countries

This ⤵️ is why COVID treatments like antivirals & monoclonal antibodies are so important! Major clinical trials like PANORAMIC ongoing now. If successful we’ll see much greater use of COVID treatment in the near future for those most at-risk of complications 💊

@barriere_dr @FoucPerotin @Renalooo Would it be possible to translate this info English please?

@FoucPerotin Vis à vis de omicron = aucun anticorps en CURATIF Uniquement en PRÉVENTIF ➡️EVUSHELD qui garde une activité in vitro NB : @Renalooo a donné une info importante: curatif possible a priori À venir : Sotrovimab en CURATIF qui garde une activité neutralisante > EVUSHELD

Si tout le monde avait été vacciné la vague de contamination aurait été bcp plus faible à l’hôpital, et ce même s’il existe un échappement immunitaire avec omicron (vaccinés OU infection ancienne) Aucune déprogrammation n’aurait été nécessaire Des vies auraient été sauvées ⤵️

@bonnaud_dowell @nick_fire1 Hope you recover quickly, both with the covid and the transplant

Ffs, Corona' in the house! Daughter has fever & just tested positive. It's seemed inevitable with her being at school despite all the shielding and daily care. I'm currently negative but we're v low on tests. Grrrr.

@nick_fire1 Hope you manage to avoid it. I (transplant recipient) have managed to not catch it from 2 kids in our house separately in last 6 weeks. They are young so it was me isolating from them instead of the other was round!

@ThatRyanChap Sure, I'm one of those immunocompromised people, and I still get it. If I test positive I'll be trying to get monoclonals ahead of antivirals. Have you seen evidence re asymptomatic transmitting less which South Africa apparently used to guide their change of policy? Thanks

@ThatRyanChap Can't get my head around the stopping asymptomatic testing / isolation approach. Is there evidence saying you don't transmit if asymptomatic? I get the need to get on with jobs and lives, but how does this impact those who vaccines offer no protection?

@paulgill42 @iammrazul Just messaged you Paul

@iammrazul That’s funny because I’m struggling to get one at the moment absolute bullshit 😂

Great to be included in BBC article and on @BBCBreakfast - immunocompromised need clearer + quicker access to vaccine 4th doses, as well other treatments inc monoclonal antibodies and antivirals. Thanks to @kidneycareuk. Clip here (with @stephenmcadoo ) vimeo.com/657871329/8f81…

@KatharineDC @BBCBreakfast @BBCiPlayer Thank you for raising awareness of our situation

About 0725 on @BBCBreakfast today my piece on calls for more support for people with a weakened immune system and a smoother rollout of 4th covid jabs: @BBCiPlayer to watch again

Some who shielded need support now say charities bbc.co.uk/news/health-59…

@drphilhammond On 2) there's those of us for whom 3 doses of vaccines have given zero protection (immunocompromised), so not quite so simple.

Do you prefer to 1) cancel all your social events in response to Omicron to protect the NHS 2) say "fuck you" to all the idiots who haven't been vaccinated and let then suffer or 3) let it spread amongst everyone because we can't stop it anyway and it's an interesting experiment

@bonnaud_dowell @kidneyrunner @Dorry_Segev Are we certain that Ronapreve / Regeneron will not work with Omicron? UK is finally making it and Molnupiravir available for immunocompromised as soon as you get a positive test. No sign of preventative use or that we've ordered AZ though

FDA authorizes long-acting pre-exposure monoclonal antibodies for immunocompromised/transplant patients!! Game-changer!! (that said, vaccination is still important for everyone, including immunocompromised) Spread the word!

@sailorrooscout Any thoughts on the story that a flight to NL had a huge number of positives on landing please? (Apparently double vaxxed did not need to test before departure) reuters.com/world/europe/d…
