BREAKING: the world's oceans will start to become too acidic to properly sustain marine life or help stabilise the climate within years potentially triggering a domino effect that could eventually lead to the death of most, if not all, life in the world's oceans 🧵

It’s not just about vaccines and boosters.
We’ve shown since 2020 that the current slate of vaccines, while significantly helpful (and you all should really go and get up-to-date) they are insufficiently effective and will not, by themselves, stop the ongoing health and economic carnage from repeating waves of COVID infection.
Indoor air quality improvements and masking are critical.
Trying to ‘tackle’ the number of people who are off on long term sick since the pandemic and get them back to work - WITHOUT investing money in Long Covid research, recognition and rehab - really just makes the @GOVUK look RIDICULOUS.
Believe me, if I could work FT, I would! 😞

Huge and historic victory for transgender rights in Europe--the European Union's top court has ruled that gender changes issued by one member country must be respected in every EU country. The Court ruled “Gender, like a first name, is a fundamental element of personal identity.”
Mais um motivo para exporem a cara e o nome de cada criminoso para que toda a gente saiba o nojo que está ali. É inconcebível que voltem "à normalidade" quando não têm lugar na sociedade. Não deviam voltar a ter qualquer tipo de conforto.
El caso #Pélicot evidencia cómo no es verdad que una denuncia de violación le arruine la vida a un hombre y cómo no existe "cancelación" para ellos.
La mayoría de acusados mantienen parejas, trabajos y entornos y solo esperan a que esto "termine" para volver a su "normalidad".

IF PEOPLE WEREN'T SO DEAD SET ON HAVING ONLY 2 MODES OF OPERATION, UNPREPARED DENIAL & OVERDUE PANIC, THERE WOULD NEVER BE ANY NEED TO PANIC OVER A PANDEMIC YOU CAN SEE & MITIGATE IN ADVANCE
BREAKING: 7 people in contact with a MO patient with #BirdFlu developed symptoms. This is very concerning.
“Nobody should be hitting the panic button yet…It means the virus is inching closer & closer to what would be a real pandemic virus.”

Caramba... Marcou-me tanto como prof. McGonagall, mas também em papéis como Downton Abbey (tão, tão bom!), a senhora da Furgoneta, Hotel Marigold... Enfim, uma vida cheia que deu mais luz às nossas.

Our vaccine-only strategy dooms us to staying a step (or 3) behind SARS-CoV-2. We can't approve & deploy vaccines at nearly the pace of new variants taking hold. We need clean indoor air, free tests & masks, better vaccine & treatment, accessible pre & post exposure prophylaxis.
