Nature enthusiast. Wish more would recognise the harms of Covid reinfections jeopardizing a sustainable future. The next generation of scientists, conservationists and decision makers etc deserve and need a better deal.

The UK's anti-protest laws pre-legitimise far right authoritarianism. Labour must repeal them now. My column today. www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

Here’s what I think U.K. politicians, journalists and scientists should be doing URGENTLY. Calling out the flawed NHS IPC guidance. This impacts all airborne viruses including the next airborne pandemic.

Pandemics - no one is safe until everyone is safe. And no one is safe #PublicHealth www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The SGA claimed the programme caused "unfair reputation [sic] damage". Nope, reputational damage is not being caused by the BBC reporting the evidence, it's being caused by criminal gamekeepers who continue to kill birds of prey. #RaptorResearch raptorpersecutionuk.org/2025/02/17/b...

Male and Female #HenHarrier on #Deemarsh today - keep them safe sign the @wildjustice.bsky.social petition #bandrivengrouseshooting @raptorpersuk.bsky.social @rspb.bsky.social @rspbengland.bsky.social @rspbinvestigations.bsky.social @rspbburtonmere.bsky.social #birds #birdersuk #birdphotography

England COVID data - latest headlines [all weekly] Data source @ukhsa.bsky.social Cases up to 5 Feb 2025: 812, up 4(0.5%). Deaths up to 31 Jan 2025: 106, up 29(37.7%). Patients admitted up to 31 Jan 2025: 807, up 55(7.3%). Infection prevention and control really matters. [Chart independent].

We URGENTLY need to provide help to the most severely affected with #LongCovid and #ME In September 2024 on World Patient Patient Safety Day, we wrote to The Secretary of State for Health, a letter signed by >250 healthcare professionals stating ‘Doing nothing is NOT safe’.

I'll be on Question Time tomorrow, so you all have an excellent opportunity to watch me putting my foot in it. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Dear @thebda.bsky.social agree?

3 important petitions but the 1 w the least signatures more so for a sustainable future: we must prioritise #CleanAir. 63,140 have signed petition.parliament.uk/petitions/700036?s=09 4,335 have signed petition.parliament.uk/petitions/700304 54,050 have signed petition.parliament.uk/petitions/700317

I just wrote a quick bit about 'genuinely contributing.' (This time with a working link) mrhenrymorris.substack.com/p/genuinely-...

Due to an unavoidable event one couple have had to pull out of our Isle of Mull tour from the 4th to 12th of April 2025. For details of this all inclusive wildlife adventure drop me an email [email protected]

The advice from @who.int since August has been to mask and ventilate to avoid long covid. If @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social UKHSA had followed advice to do this we would be prepared for Avian flu. Please give the public an informed choice this time. Ffp3 masks in healthcare Ffp2 #Covidisairborne

www.theguardian.com/world/2021/j... @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social Ffp3 masks eliminate airborne transmission risks. A good time to be talking about this.

Imagine what they would save if they implemented indoor clean air protocols as well. #airborne

Please excuse a polite reminder @carladenyer.bsky.social, but when you posted about your own poor health Prof Agius sent you a link to his work - may I please ask that you consider his expertise, & that of CATA's, & prioritise TGP's 'Living with Covid Safely' Policy. T y. @barryjmjones.bsky.social

We tried to warn and ask for clean air from early on…we asked repeatedly..and were ignored….repeatedly by those with the power to institute the changes we need to keep us all safer….we will keep knocking on those closed doors until they either open or we knock them down…Please also keep knocking 🙏

When Andrew Gwynne was put in charge of public health & prevention in the UK… Covid activists & Long COVID patients believed they finally found an ally. He had previously said he knew Covid was airborne. Believed we needed masks in healthcare. Then he did nothing: youtu.be/yawhg9werrg?...

With better prevention especially control measures in workplaces (eg ventilation & respiratory protection), so many sequelae of Covid could have been prevented. www.context.news/socioeconomi...

Really good to see this month's Action for Nature email includes a link asking members to sign @wildjustice.bsky.social's #SayNoMoor petition.parliament.uk/petitions/700036 Thank you, @rspb.bsky.social @ruthtingay.bsky.social @markavery.bsky.social @chrisgpackham.bsky.social

The Covid Cover Up (on X) have just published this on YT: 'Politicians: Unmasked part 1 - It's airborne' www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELVv...

Cats with H5N1. Maybe this will bring more attention to the issue. People care immensely about their pets.

"...in light of the new scientific information, why aren’t the government protecting people now?" northwestbylines.co.uk/news/health/...

Pandemics do not begin with official announcements. They start with quiet deletions, missing reports, and assurances that there is "no cause for concern." Pay attention.

In case of interest @georgemonbiot.bsky.social, an excellent 🧵 from CATA's H&S Consultant. If the Covid Inquiry refuse to acknowledge Covid is Airborne (despite evidence given from experts incl @barryjmjones.bsky.social), what lessons have been learnt exactly (& it doesn't bode well re #H5N1).

Tick... Tick... Tick... Letting a virus run rampant means more viral evolution and it doesn't mean it becomes milder. It's like people learned nothing from SARS-CoV-2. 🤔

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 UK COVID-19 INQUIRY DECLINES TO RULE THAT COVID IS AIRBORNE 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 covid19.public-inquiry.uk/wp-content/u...

The amazing @safedavid3.bsky.social is on BSky! I wish he was the bearer of better news for his first post. ‘COVID Inquiry won’t rule the Earth is flat as a couple of people still maintain that the Earth is flat’. @trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social

It would take an hour to educate every healthcare worker in the world on how airborne transmission of viruses works, how respirators prevent transmission, and why it is good to stop transmission. It is criminal that this has not been done already.

Parents and teachers 🍎 please read these real life stories of the damage #Covid is doing to children #longcovidkids. www.longcovidkids.org/real-life-st...

#H5N1 - one more way the US is a threat to #biosecurity for us all, and the #AnimalWelfare implications are just indescribably awful. "VSD+ can result in an “unacceptable numbers of survivors” sentientmedia.org/us-taxpayers...

Looking forward to talking #ChangeEverything, #PublicHealth, #AMR and more @lshtm.bsky.social next week. All welcome - you don't have to be a student www.lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/e...

🇺🇸1.01million children estimated to have experienced #longcovid in 2023 That's ▶️ 1.4% An increase on the 2022 estimates 80% have activity limitation What are we doing to our kids?

So now we have it. Rachel Reeves's claim that a third runway at Heathrow Airport would boost economic growth comes from a report commissioned by .... Heathrow Airport. Instead of acting in the national interest, she's channelling corporate lobbyists. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

On January 20 I stopped using X. I should have deactivated the account, but assumed it was safe. Unfortunately it has been hacked by crypto scammers. I'm now shut out of it and out of X, so I can't close it down. I've appealed, but it may take some time. In the meantime, what you're seeing isn't me.

A worrying 🧵, @nataliegreenpeer.bsky.social @greenjennyjones.bsky.social: UKHSA again denying airborne transmission, now of *airborne* H5N1. @carladenyer.bsky.social @adrianramsay.bsky.social @sianberry.bsky.social your own policy deals w all airborne pathogens, please raise as a matter of urgency.

🚨We are part of the #LongCovid Groups & our legal team has sent this letter on the groups’ behalf to @gwynnemp.bsky.social following his recent letter to @timfarron.bsky.social. And as Secretariat of the new Long Covid APPG we have informed the APPG Chair about Mr. Gwynne’s letter. #CovidIsAirborne
