The point of journalism is to hold power to account by: documenting what politicians and experts say, highlighting and questioning when what they claim appears uncorroborated by evidence and putting what they say on the public record so that, as more evidence emerges that they misled/misinformed the public, policy is adjusted accordingly & they're held to account.
There's absolutely no evidence or moral justification for repeatedly infecting our children & school staff with a vascular, multi-organ damaging, disabling, deadly SAR-C0V-2 pathogen. There is however, ample evidence that we have been misled & misinformed as to the significance & extent of child & school transmission. & harm.
Please do what you can to demand clean air in schools🙏
This from August 2022: Our children are at grave risk of Covid as State puts profit ahead of public health
Excerpts
."..we’re returning children to school against a backdrop of a data blackout, a more contagious variant incoming, waning and pummelled immunity from repeated infections, with no protections in place".
"It’s up to parents to
risk-assess, but if we’re not allowed to know if the unmasked kid sitting next
to ours who was off sick for a few days has Covid and is potentially still
infectious, how can we? Nits we need to be informed of, but a highly infectious
neurotropic disease that can cause organ damage, disability and death? That’s
an ecumenical matter".
"Many parents, sometimes
emboldened by mental-health practitioners who should know better, interpret the
Government’s removal of public health protections as being outside their locus
of control and therefore, succumbing to the “inevitability” of infection is
best. For many, due to financial or health precarity, exposure to Covid is
increasingly difficult to avoid but an infection is not beneficial to mental
health because; a) psychiatric disorders are common post-Covid sequelae, the
risk of which increases with every infection and b) mental and physical health
are inextricably linked.
Pitting one against the other, instead of advocating for both, is harmful. The World Health Organisation’s Mike Ryan recently spoke of the cumulative impact of repeated infections and negative long-term neurological and other health outcomes".
"Unless parents are prepared to
say, “we don’t consent to exposing our children to Covid infection at school”,
our consent will be presumed tacit".
"Dr Hans Kluge, the WHO’s Europe director, recently urged countries such as Ireland to “relaunch mitigation efforts”, and adopt a vaccine-plus strategy. He warned: “Waiting for the autumn to act will be too late.”
"The Children’s Rights Alliance told me it backs WHO Covid protections in schools".
Children’s rights lawyer, Gareth Noble, said: "We significantly reduce risk for our
children if we follow basic public health advice such as masking, contact
tracing, air filtration. Any expert advice from the WHO
needs to be considered and actioned. Ignoring it would be negligent.”
Interim chief medical officer
Professor Breda Smyth needs to explain why she has not adopted WHO guidance in
her advice to government.
