Hvad bilder Mette Frederiksen og socialdemokraterne sig egentlig ind, når de igen og igen kommer med moraliserende kommentarer om, at danskerne skal tage sig sammen, og arbejde mere - hvis der skal være råd til velfærd i fremtiden.

For det første: Danskerne knokler. Vi har aldrig haft flere mennesker i arbejde. Og vi arbejder mere effektivt og produktivt end nogensinde før. Mange arbejder på skæve tider og mere end fuld tid. Vi løber så stærkt, at mange har svært ved at få familielivet til at hænge sammen.

Det er sgu da en hån, at privilegerede og vellønnede politikere fra deres velpolstrede stole skal moralisere om dovenskab og arbejdsmoral overfor de mennesker der knokler og skaber værdierne i samfundet.

For det andet: Hvis der ikke er råd til velfærd i fremtiden så peger pilen et sted hen – og det er på Mette Frederiksen og Socialdemokraterne selv.

Det er dem, som lige nu tvinger kommuner og regioner til at skære dybt i velfærden – så ældre, børn og mennesker med handicap svigtes. Det er dem, der vil anvende milliarder på at sænke skatten for virksomhedsarvinger, ejendomsinvestorer og millionærer – frem for at genopbygge velfærden efter mange års negligering.

Så kære Mette Frederiksen. Stik piben ind og vis lidt respekt for danskernes hårde arbejde. Vi er ikke kreaturer, der skal spændes for din konkurrencestat. Og vi er ikke så dumme, at vi ikke kan gennemskue, at velfærdens krise ikke skyldes dovenskab hos danskerne, men politikernes svigt.

Can viruses🦠 from the past threaten the future?

🧊#EUfunded project @EuropeVeo's scientists conducted an expedition in Greenland to assess if permafrost could release dangerous pathogens.

Read about it in @ScienceMagazine 👇

[VEOEurope @EuropeVeo]

VEO's goal is to assess the risk that, as the Arctic warms and the permafrost thaws, long-frozen soil could release dangerous pathogens.

Interested in our work? In the @EuropeVeo consortium we study pathways of disease emergence. One of the case studies focusses on Greenland, a rapidly changing environment for which little is known. We fitted an expedition to collect baseline information. 1/..

this movie shows how an expedition like this works. Kudo's to the team. With data like this we hope to eventually be able to better predict diseases https://t.co/WYk627iGJg @gail_carson @Chikwe_I

Commentary on climate and pandemics: "Will climate change amplify epidemics and give rise to pandemics? Most certainly yes, if the world stands still". Hear hear https://t.co/3SihJDKcUB

[Frank Aarestrup @FrankAarestrup]

@Ammer_B @MarionKoopmans perhaps but the world is still not reacting and sufficient prepared

[Tulio de Oliveira @Tuliodna]

Thanks Marion for highlighting our piece on Science on why the world need to start acting now to stop epidemics and pandemics that are being amplified by climate change.

I very much appreciate @siliconrepublic giving me the opportunity to talk about the Pathogens Portal at @emblebi @ENASequence and how it’s poised to be at the centre of the open biodata sharing, preparing for the next pandemic. https://t.co/W0Hjpqk4E1

🚨Molecular data for over 200,000 pathogen species and strains are now available in our new Pathogens Portal, launched today.

An indispensable resource for healthcare research, global pandemic surveillance, and food security.
