Oh my word.
I hadn't seen this before.

Annual 'unruly passenger' reports from the FAA.

It's exactly the kind of thing you'd expect to see if Covid infections cause problems with the parts of the brain that regulate behaviour.
And that's all the brain, by the way.

🚨TODAY, the UK removed people aged 75–79 from routine Covid vaccine eligibility.

While countries like Canada continue offering vaccines to higher-risk groups, the UK keeps narrowing access.

Policy choices have consequences!

@clarice_willow @1goodtern @lkw7514 True and they’re usually brilliant. This time unfortunately, it comes across ambiguously, unless you have the original conference statement as context. It does sound as though they want to blame the vaccine, whereas they mean Covid infection itself was ignored by the experts.

[alex_andra_kindness @KindnessAlex]

@DropletDiaries @KaizenMayDay @open_erv @SharonBurnabyBC That’s right. CO2 will build up without fresh air ventilation. If the room can’t be ventilated, it’s still worth using a HEPA filter for all the other benefits of cleaner air.

[alex_andra_kindness @KindnessAlex]

@SharonBurnabyBC Fantastic initiative to reduce transmission of infections and reduce school absences. (Note: the article mentions carbon dioxide buildup but HEPA filters don’t remove CO2).

[tern @1goodtern]

Look at that.

That is just incredible.

Seriously.
Just look at it for five minutes.

Let it soak in.

@Globalbiosec This omission is happening frequently 😖😖😖

[alex_andra_kindness @KindnessAlex]

@mryoung151 This is fascinating!

[alex_andra_kindness @KindnessAlex]

@1goodtern We desperately need BOTH: education on preventing airborne infections AND on hand washing to prevent illnesses like gastro. I’m constantly seeing people leave public toilets without handwashing or they wave hands under the tap for 2 seconds. High touch surfaces give me the creeps

This is an important finding: Flu and Covid vaccines should not be taken at the same time. 👇

@DALupton @byowife I’m guessing Mark Davis is at Monash University? The University has a different library from Monash Public Library Service. You can request purchase of a book and/or eBook from Monash public library service service with this link: https://t.co/bBvKjH4prJ

[alex_andra_kindness @KindnessAlex]

@1goodtern True. But at least it’s one place where staff can be asked to mask 🤷🏻‍♀️. A low bar, but it’s something. Won’t fix any ventilation/air quality concern though.

[alex_andra_kindness @KindnessAlex]

@LBatemanMD @RealAnitaWhite Thank you for this
