@emmma_camp_ Oh yes. Covid infections in the womb and over and over again since birth damage development and cognition and increase vulnerability to other infections. It’s not that hard but people try to ignore it as inconvenient.

From what I saw and heard about in hospital in 2020, the findings of the Covid Inquiry today, I can confirm them: nurses in intensive care ward are supposed to be one per patient. In my ward, it was one to four. Physios stepped up to be ICU 'nurses'.

Any journalists covering Module 3 of the Covid Inquiry should really look at this. The sheer incompetence and arrogance of decision makers during one of the most horrendous times we’ve lived through, and they still aren’t acknowledging or following the evidence… @covidinquiryuk

@1goodtern So why has this not happened already? Well, there’s one big problem… As shown in this clip, the current head of infection prevention & control for England, Dr Lisa Ritchie, STILL believes that DROPLET & CONTACT are the only modes of transmission that matter for Covid…

Parents and children are having repeated Covid infections and they cause brain damage. We have not substantially improved ventilation in schools and parents and children are not wearing respirator masks. So the cycle will continue In utero COVID exposure linked to brain changes, developmental delays, anxiety, and depression cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/utero… Cognitive Impairment in Paediatric PCNS: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Long Covid Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿@LongCovidScot·
The former Health Secretary told the Inquiry that hospitals were among the highest-risk places to catch Covid. Even in 2026, NHS Scotland still has no measures to manage airborne infection risks, and people continue to contract airborne infections in healthcare settings.

Recognising the virus could spread in air could have meant: - Effective protection for clinically vulnerable children and staff; - Ventilation, CO2 monitoring, PPE and air filtration from the start; - Attendance rotas, use of empty buildings;

Now Meningitis … Now also in unis … Being played down … See same pattern of minimising and denial of harm of such AIRBORNE pathogens on children and young people … Clean indoor air & use the tools we have to prevent - have we not learnt anything in 6 years…⁉️🧐🤨 😷💉💨

Some individuals in senior positions... Indeed they did. Always remember the guy who had a HEPA in his office but did not recommend airborne.

Better late than never. But the harm has been done. We need accountability.

Thank you @jim_reed The COVID-19 pandemic has taught us that healthy indoor air quality (IAQ) is just as important as clean water. We spend about 90% of our lives breathing indoor air, which is often polluted and threatens our health as well as our success at school and at work.

"At the start of the pandemic it was assumed the virus was spread by close contact - i.e. either touching something or through large droplets after a cough or sneeze. That assumption influenced everything" That idea turned out to be flawed. #post" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">bbc.co.uk/news/live/cde4…

More than 6 years since Covid started & we still don't have Hepa, clean air filters in schools* and hospitals. Addenbrookes and other places have proved they work. Respirator masks: FFP3/FFP2, stop airborne viruses, NOT blue surgicals. * Sadiq Khan has put them in London schools.

So, IPC & the CNOs really needed a report to tell them this, when aerosol scientists, were telling them, providing evidence for them. Even people like me wrote repeatedly to the CNOs - even met them once. So bitterly disappointed that they waited.

🏆UK Inquiry M3 report confirms COVID is an airborne virus, identifying aerosol transmission as a primary route of infection. Critiques the prolonged focus on the "droplet" route, noting inadequate recognition of aerosol risks led to insufficient PPE for healthcare workers💪
