“We’ve seen this unbelievable increase in numbers [economically inactive because of illness], which we don’t really understand, and we don’t know whether it’s associated with Covid, but it’s certainly coincident with the period after it.”

To say that when the last ONS survey established that around two million people in England and Scotland were affected by Long COVID, a disabling condition, is wilful gaslighting. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2024/apr/25/about-2m-people-long-covid-england-scotland-ons-figures
