In light of the fact that repeated studies suggest that women are more likely to be develop Long Covid, I think it's really important to know what's happening with the different health conditions that specifically affect women. This is a painful thread at times.

"My NHS colleagues & I weren’t willing to let the bodies pile high in their thousands. Boris Johnson no longer mentions them at all." My piece on the responses to the UK Covid-UK Inquiry report that try to airbrush the dead away. Sincere thanks @ObserverUK for commissioning.

Sweden’s cumulative excess death count is higher than any of their Nordic neighbours. A review of their strategy concluded: “The Swedish response was unique & characterised by a morally, ethically and scientifically questionable laissez-faire approach.” nature.com/articles/s4159…

Oh look. The account that stalked me daily and lied about me constantly for years really isn’t a doctor from Denmark. I’m unshocked. Unshocked I tell you!

The only “peace plan” that makes sense is the one from Sanna Marin, Finland’s former Prime Minister: “The way out of the conflict is for Russia to leave Ukraine. That is the way out of the conflict.”

If Keir Starmer counted unpaid carers as workers, unemployment figures would collapse overnight. Thousands of us are doing 50–100hr weeks, keeping health & social care afloat, yet are accused of “doing nothing.” The biggest workforce in the UK is the one nobody pays.

The last few hours have proven 2 terrible things. First, the US and Russian governments are so close that the US government takes large parts of Russian proposals and passes them off as their own, and second that some people are so desperate to exonerate Trump that they act like…

This is blatantly false. As Secretary Rubio and the entire Administration has consistently maintained, this plan was authored by the United States, with input from both the Russians and Ukrainians.

How likely do you think it is that Reform's Nathan Gill was the first person offered bribes to speak in favour in Russia? The only one who said yes to them? That the people doing the bribing recruited him successfully and decided to stop? Or is he just the only one we've caught?

An investigation into Russian interference in our politics is long overdue. And we all know who should be questioned first.

I'm working my way steadily through We Want Them Infected by @19joho for the second time. I could retweet almost every sentence, so I won't start. But one thing that does strike me repeatedly:

All Reform's funding must now come under urgent scrutiny. 🇬🇧

Nigel Farage must allow an independent investigation into Reform UK so the British public can be assured that all links to Putin's barbaric regime are rooted out.

Here's Farage parroting Russian propaganda lies that could have come straight out of Lavrov's mouth. Are we really to believe that Nathan Gill, who spouted the same lies, is the only Russian asset in Reform UK?

So we’re telling Ukraine to accept limits on its sovereignty, cede territory & weaken its military. Whose interests does that serve? Not Ukraine’s, America’s or those of our democratic allies. Undermining Ukraine & dividing NATO will empower Putin & embolden autocrats worldwide.
