A new pandemic is expected and the UK still isn't prepared Five years ago the country's first national lockdown began. Now, as Ebola, Mpox and bird flu are deemed 'high risk', experts predict another major outbreak is coming

A new pandemic is expected and the UK still isn't prepared

Yesterday, we lost William Labov, a foundational figure in sociolinguistics. In his Abralin Talk, Labov reflected on a lifetime of scholarship that has mentored generations and advanced the pursuit of social equity through linguistics.

Close up photo of William Labov who is smiling and looking at the camera.

This is by far my favorite picture of Bill Labov. I'm pretty sure he was about this age when I wandered into Linguistics 102, and you can see both the kindness and fierce intelligence in his eyes.
