Our preprint 'Dementia wellbeing and COVID-19: review and expert consensus on current research and knowledge gaps' https://t.co/ZNKi10bJJL comes from discussions between a UK-based working group of dementia researchers & literature search for studies about dementia and COVID. 1/n

I’m also having lots of feedback about how brilliantly the vaccination centres are working and how impressive the set up is. In a sea of incompetence, investing in vaccines and rolling them out is likely to be the best thing this government has done. But the bar is set very low..

[Professor Louise Robinson @LouiseProfessor]

Carl another superb Spectator article - I gave up any hope of integrated science and common sense ! Hope you are on the SAGE committee or may be they already have a primary care person on it!

[Andrew Neil @afneil]

So who, exactly, has been in charge and ‘direct control’ til now?

[Bryan Smith #RejoinEU same handle on BlueSky @BpsmithUk]

Sage minutes reveal Government didnt actually follow a lot of scientific advice after all - they were *informed by* the science, but ignored it & made convenient political choices instead. In other words - they followed *Cummings* advice.
He must be sacked https://t.co/tBEE3MTObj

[Kevin Maguire @Kevin_Maguire]

Cummings will never be taken seriously again

[Cleay @cleay]

The UK suffering an unbelievably unfortunate perfect storm of the worst government in living memory, at the most critical moment in living memory, with the most incompetent opposition in living memory.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

UK surging to 2nd worst #coronavirus death toll in the world. Again I ask.... WHY?

[Connor Richardson 🏳️‍🌈 @connorrichards2]

I had to console my Gran crying, getting depressed. Shes 80 with 0 health conditions and active. She says this is worse than the miners strike for a geordie gran is a big deal! Need better understanding of risk and quality of life for our older people.

@djonesbutchers Inditex in Spain. It's the parent company of stores Zara, Pull and Bear amongst others. They have kept all staff on full pay (without government subsidies) and are using their factories to make PPE. The owner has also personally spent over €65mill on PPE for health workers.

[Ros Altmann @rosaltmann]

How can anyone be seriously considering a lockdown that singles out 'over-70s' as if they are some homogeneous weak group of people. Many over-70s are fitter and stronger than 40 and 50 somethings. If democracy denies freedom where will it go next?

[Professor Louise Robinson @LouiseProfessor]

@BBCNewsnight @clarewenham Hear hear Clare - eventually some one with the courage to say what many of us have been thinking for weeks! The WHO guidance was really clear and the UK seems to have done the opposite in many areas! As the NZ PM said ‘go hard,go early’
