@iansample Hi Ian. Great article about the shingles vaccine. Unfortunately if people turned 65 before 31st Aug 2023 NHS won’t give it to them until they are 70. It’s the JCVI’s decision to disadvantage 66-69 year olds.

@conormolo Focused on the architectural side but apparent suggestion such places would not seek modern methods construction, energy efficiency & imputation as I read it would exclude people on diversity or accessibility grounds seems questionable to me if based on a few images

[Susan Parham💙 @SusanParham]

What I see in these images of proposed new places is human-scaled streets, outdoor rooms, vertical mixed use, active frontages, trees helping limit heat islands, density supporting walking/cycling - but apparently only architectural style questions matter https://t.co/PHA9rRe07V
