Hazards Campaign is network of health+safety groups, activists+ union safety reps. Fighting for workers lives+ health. Follow/retweets may not = agreement
Hi I'm Hilda from Salford,UK, and I refuse to believe we cannot prevent COVID infection+ reinfection+risk of long term harm by FFP 2/3 masking, better ventilation, added HEPA filtration, isolation + sick pay. I reject Govt deliberate mass sickness and disabling by doing nothing.
- Replying to @PoliticsJOE_UKSystematic repeated bullying of someone who cannot reply and snide discriminatory comments from MPs... Would result in disciplinary action in normal workplace !
- Parents keeping year 9 child off as temp, sore throat, coughing a lot+ vomiting. Informed school. Marked as unauthorised absence as 'no GP evidence, or receipt for paracetamol' as they already had some! Another day school sent same child home as ill, also = unauthorised absence.
- School assemblies are v high risk of transmission of airborne aerosols carrying Covid. Not held when Infection rate was many times lower + virus less infectious,how can they be risk assessed safe now? H+S Control Hierarchy calls for risk elimination so they shouldn't be held
- Replying to @Andrew_Adonis and @RobbieRinder
- Govt @educationgovuk Public Health,support schools forcing sick children to attend, 100% attendance, come to school with calpol or face sanctions. Now 8 children have died of Strep A. Time to reverse dangerous policy. Well past time to make schools safer from airborne pathogens
- This shocking prediction makes no mention.of one of the known major but preventable causes of all these increasing long term illnesses -Covid!! This is wilful ignorance on industrial scale. No chance of preventing things that will not be named.
- Just because @BorisJohnson says COVID is over+it's safe to take your mask off, doesn't make it true. No viral pandemic was ever stopped just because failing political leader said so! See Canute, waves etc Ventilate. Filter. Everyone mask on everywhere indoors - FFP2 preferably
- Replying to @DaliaHasanMD @PeteUK7 and @kprather88We drink a few litres of water a day but breathe 11,000 litres of air. We expect clean water and we need clean air. Make air qualitu.visible with CO2 and PM monitoring.
- Schools are big transmission sites. Staff and children must be protected from infection, reinfection+long term effects, multi organ dange + Long COVID. Govt must mandate+invest in cutting transmission in schools. We cannot afford not too. drive.google.com/file/d/1vsaiGr…
Research in Belgian school settings: "SARS-CoV-2 transmission occurred mainly within the school." "Both models for outbreak reconstruction revealed that transmission occurred mainly within the school environment" sciencedirect.com/science/articl… - This is not public health messaging, this is @ukhsa unevidenced, dangerous COVID spreading, pretend public health but really DIY, on your own, sink or swim politicised BS. Shameful and so harmful to short+ long term individual+ population health, ensuring #EndlessCovidAccording to @NHS children with #Covid (advised NOT to test by @UKHSA) can go to school and spread it to other children who may have vulnerable family members, and to staff, who may also be vulnerable Is this how to prevent the spread of a notifiable disease? #LongCovidKids
- Replying to @crr7310We have to stop transmission at work: Ventilation tobkeep CO2 <800ppm minimum Added filtration to remove COVID in aerosols from the air fFP2/3 respirators Isolation + sick pay+ support Workers take action on indoor workplace air pollution! greenerjobsalliance.co.uk/air-pollution/
