Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran.com · 18/02/2024Some people are justifying the US CDC potentially weakening its COVID isolation guidelines because other countries like the UK have already done it for a while. Let's check in on how the UK is doing: 19752255

your father, i mean your dad @kitn.bsky.social · 18/02/2024I wish that they would allow me to have a 4th booster but my particular medical issue is not on the very small list. 030

derek van vliet @derek.bike · 19/02/2024our politicians in canada have done this constantly when they want to justify weakening covid response. instead of pointing at science, they point at other politicians to justify it 051

Marjorie-We did it to ourselves @hydroqueen211.bsky.social · 19/02/2024If you read about plagues throughout history, it usually takes a generation to recover. It is a major reset for society and culture. 020
Ah,Bee! @abbstractedly.bsky.social · 18/02/2024Plays into Tory ideology and rhetoric re ‘nhs not fit for purpose’ if we’re all sic, making the nhs look worse, especially when combined with the under funding and work conditions not exactly being made appealing re understaffing, hours, pay adding into extending wait lists 120
Otto TanoshiiNeko @ottotanoshiineko.bsky.social · 19/02/2024When it comes to Covid19 it’s imperative to protect yourself regardless of what your neighbors are doing. Long Covid is a real medical issue you don’t ever want to get. 010
Chris Rory @chrisrory.bsky.social · 19/02/2024I’ve caught Covid about 5 times here in the UK. It’s got progressively weaker each time until this latest time which is just as bad as the first. Fuck this country and its lack of priorities. 010
Flamebait @flame-bait.bsky.social · 18/02/2024This is a huge problem in the UK but a particularly poor article in that it lists a number of contributors but doesn’t detail their relative contribution. The majority of the increase in long term illness that has removed people from the workforce is mental illness and depression. That’s the story. 010

Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran.com · 18/02/2024"This century, Britain has had a higher percentage of people inactive due to ill health than Germany, France or Italy. But two new factors – Covid and longer NHS waiting lists – have made matters significantly worse in recent years."theguardian.comRecord long-term sickness bodes ill for UK economic growthYears of austerity, followed by Covid, have left Britain with unhealthy workers and businesses struggling to recruit, but the road to recovery, of all kinds, will be long 110019
H. Owlett ☭ (feminist, Hamas, ANTIFA, Putin #1 Fan, evermasker) @hedwigowlett.bsky.social · 19/02/2024Why would they "struggle to recruit" if they have no customers? Someone's sick workers used to be someone else's customers. Now they stay home sick, and for the lack of money they don't go shopping. This market-based economy splendidly shot itself in the foot by taking covid lightly. 040
They-Ra @xanindigo.bsky.social · 18/02/2024I hate that these people only care about economic growth 040
Fan of The Critic @fanofthecritic.bsky.social · 19/02/2024To be fair, the UK explicitly wants it's people to die and suffer while the US still needs some to continue. 100
