Last night’s announcement about vaccination was meant to be reassuring, but it makes me worry that they are putting all their eggs in the vaccine basket again and will not be doing anything more to reduce transmission.
That could be disastrous.

This reminds me of what they said at the start of the pandemic, that people would suffer “behavioural fatigue”.

Turns out there was no science behind that point of view then…

‘Missing- the need for closure after the Great War’

This map was drawn by Mary Judith Massey. Her son Captain John H Massey MC was killed on 27 May 1918 in the Bois Des Buttes. This map was sent to the French authorities on the Aisne in an effort to locate his body. /1

COVID has been responsible for 1 in 28 deaths of children and young people (5-19) this year.
Our children deserve protecting, too.

I know of 2 children who, on top of being ill with school-acquired COVID-19, wrongly feel guilty now because members of their family have caught it. This psychological and physical harm is down to the authorities’ failure to protect and mitigate. #schoolsneedHEPAfiltersnow

It seems a good day to post a newspaper cutting of my Great Granny and her hedge in Birmingham.
My Great Grandfather had been a surgeon working to save victims of the trenches in Flanders, so she knew a great deal about the horrors of war.

Netherlands are taking their surge in cases extremely seriously.
Dutch government is expected to rule on "partial lockdown" tomorrow.
