I am most concerned about children, they are the least vaccinated group. Our governments abandoned the precautionary principle. Convinced everyone it was safe but the risks after any reinfection last years: blood vessel damage, clots, neurological damage, heart damage. Risk is cumulative. 🧵

This is a very important thread. The most difficult job is getting air filters Into school. It is a huge mistake then to fail to select the best - highest CADR, quietest, value for £, no added UV, ionisation etc It leads to poor air cleaning results and undermines the evidence base..
