Everyone who has put their hand up, can you go and explain it to the UKHSA?

Thank you UKHSA for yet another problem nobody needed.

UKHSA report shows 2,877 excess deaths caused by May and June 2026 heatwaves, up from 1,500 last year.

Need a fundamental rethink about the design of infrastructure, homes, shops, workplaces.

Need maximum workplace temperature laws to protect workers. Voluntary codes won't give enforceable rights.

UKHSA: It's flu and covid season, get vaccines, vaccines are good
Population: ok we believe you- hang on no covid19 vaccine on NHS?
UKHSA No you have to pay for that
Population: surely if vaccines are good it would be free on the NHS, maybe covid19 vaccines aren't so good after all? 🤔

Someone needs to tell UKHSA this!
[10 Dec 2024] Opening Remarks from Dr Tedros at yesterday’s @who.int media briefing:

“We cannot talk about COVID in the past tense.

“It’s still with us, it still causes acute disease and Long COVID, and it still kills.

“The world might want to forget about COVID-19, but we cannot afford to.”

Only 14% of NHS workers have had this year's booster for Covid-19.
Only 23.6% of GPs.

This will significantly adversely affect NHS services over the winter.

This annoys me so much
MASKING SHOULD BE MANDATORY in healthcare settings
www.gloucestershirelive.co.uk/news/health/...
Masking works!! But they won't communicate about this
The UKHSA have been wrong to NOT encourage masks
Health officials today say 'stay at home if ill' and wear masks
The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said cases of Covid, norovirus and flu are soaring putting the NHS under pressure and threatening vulnerable relatives

Why isn’t Labour rolling out Hepa and vaccines to all who want them? I believe UKHSA are ignoring post infection risk! @teamlabouruk.bsky.social
Children face elevated kidney, heart, and gut risks for years after COVID infection

“Findings included elevated risks for chronic organ disease among children, and revealed some racial differences in long COVID risks.”

When will the denialism about this end?
