For those of you in the UK, Palantir are all over the NHS.

Questions have been raised about the transparency and fairness of the procurement process leading to the contract award.

The cost of the contract, ยฃ330 million, has also been questioned.

The next #ME/CFSHacks #ME/CFS (mild/moderate) test I'm going to do is electrolytes again. Didn't give a good try before. Half at night, other half first thing after getting up. Purpose? To see if I wake up easier and feel less like a zombie the first 2 hrs. Right now, it is so hard to wake up.

Nearly 200 children have died from Covid. It goes unmentioned when the government could have rolled out clean air. Had enough of politicians not wanting to say things plainly.

Many donโ€™t seem aware of the impact on vulnerable and long Covid sufferers who are well aware Covid is not over and the denialism on this is so harmful and is ripping families apart. Lies are harmful and the truth is published in a mountain of research.

Vaccines are not enough to prevent long covid and most arenโ€™t up to date with current strains. Our government are not following the science on layered mitigations because itโ€™s not popular opinion. This is why we have millions with long covid. Zero decent public health messaging.

So thankful that I was limiting my errands to the max (Costco mostly once a month) and that others were mostly all wearing mask while I was wearing cloth ones.

By the time many took theirs off I had upgraded to n95 and now that none have them I use elastomeric and havenโ€™t been sick for 5 years.

#Covid can harm your unborn baby.

ANYONE can get #LongCovid from ANY variant despite being vaccinated.

Becoming infected with #SARS-CoV2 is like playing Russian Roulette with your health and the health of your children.

Your best defense is wearing an N95 in public to prevent infection.
