We face a choice: continue to ignore deaths from COVID-19 or prevent them. In collaboration with @RealOzSAGE , we call on the Australian government to act urgently to reduce transmission of COVID-19 by using the tools we have, instead of abandoning them.

Who wants a black @3M Aura? More would benefit from excellent protection if this respirator was available in black. We've written to the CEO of 3M to highlight this popular request. Retweet if you want to make safety stylish @3MHealthCare @3MSafety @3MNews

1/15 As 2023 draws to a close, we’d like to look back and ask when you realized SARS-CoV-2 isn’t ‘just a cold’? Was it when studies showed that children who’d recently had COVID-19 were at increased risk of Strep A and RSV?

Governments and certain key opinion formers aren’t being open and honest about the risks associated with COVID-19 and their actions will have long-term consequences for public health and trust in science.

COVID-19 is not "just the flu." New research by @zalaly shows that COVID-19 is significantly more harmful than flu, and that most of the harms come after the acute phase of the illness has passed. Read More:

Long🧵 #COVID19 and where we are. I’m worried. We are entering the 5th year of the pandemic and we are certainly in a different phase. This phase is marked by an evolving virus (with the XBB and BA.2 sublineages circulating and JN.1 becoming dominant).

3 questions 1. Is it more transmissible? 2. Does it cause more severe disease 3. Will our tests, vax, & treatments still work We don't know the answers yet But preliminarily, I suspect #1 may be yes #2 likely no #3 likely yes So as usual, lets get data to drive our response
