Judging by the cacophony on this bus, "Coughs and sneezes spread diseases, catch them in your handkerchief" is a fatal casualty of the War On Woke.

UK less prepared for pandemic than pre-Covid, former vaccine chief warns.

UK less prepared for pandemic than pre-Covid, former vaccine chief warns

Dr Clive Dix says all activities to prepare for next outbreak are ‘literally gone’ and vaccine manufacturers have been driven away

The Guardian
Which ‘big calls’ did Boris Johnson get right exactly? Locked down too late every time, allowed large superspreader events to go ahead, disastrous ‘freedom day’ and ‘eat out to help out’ policies, inadequate sick pay. Vaccines, perhaps.

Overall, a thoroughly shameful—not to say criminally negligent—record. #CovidInquiry #ToryCovidCatastrophe #PlagueIsland https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-67597455

There were more flu deaths than Covid ones last winter - but for some, the fear remains. Why?

Brilliant suggestion! Leave the south of #PlagueIsland to it's own devices. 😂

Can't wait for more exciting and insightful BBC News articles about how Little Fudbucket on the Wold has revived its "tradition" of beating visitors with sticks as a way of celebrating His Majesty's coronation

We're hoping to move over from disposable FFP3s to Cambridge Masks FFP2s in the near future, but our ears can't take the strain. These along with some button hole elastic, should help to take the pressure off.
