“We are far away from 2020 - we now have vaccinations, boosters, antivirals…” devisridhar tells JackieLongc4 a rise in Covid cases may be due to reinfection of Omicron sub-variants - but we are better prepared for the virus compared to the first wave.

Covid infections are rising once again across the UK. Total infections are now back at the levels seen last May, though still well down on the peak of pandemic.Across the UK, 1.4 million private households are estimated to have had the virus last week – that’s an increase of more than 40 per cent on the previous week.

The disease is most prevalent in Scotland, where one in 30 have Covid. In Northern Ireland and Wales, the rate is one in 45. England has a rate of one in 50. England reported just over 5,000 people in hospital with Covid yesterday, up by nearly a quarter on the previous week.

devisridhar JackieLongc4 yeah, we are better prepared, we just aren't doing anything. Kinda pointless really, like having a cure for cancer but not taking it.

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Vaccines from a real expert

devisridhar JackieLongc4 DS talks authoritatively re Omicron Last 6 weeks 9 ppl I know in 4 areas of England (who'd been carful/followed advice/been vaccinated)caught COVID19 We don't need more ppl sick, off work, at risk from LongCovid We do need some public statements from DHSCgovuk wesstreeting

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Unfortunately, most people won't be having a booster until the winter, and the availability of anti-virals is an absolute joke. Vulnerable people are being forced back into full shielding. It is a national disgrace.

devisridhar JackieLongc4 This you devisridhar no mask and surrounded by people

devisridhar JackieLongc4 We’re all going to die We’re doomed I tell you! Dooooomed!

devisridhar JackieLongc4 No we are not. Where are the second boosters for the most vulnerable over 60s? France has already rolled this out. U.K. it’s only over 75s. The big calls wrong. ToryCovidCatastrophe JohnsonOut145 JohnsonLiedPeopleDied

devisridhar JackieLongc4 A good positive interview. But why, oh why! did you have to, in the last minute, mention masks. Masks are so contentious. Please everyone stop going on about masks, they barely help that's why all countries dropped them. Vaccination is key!

devisridhar JackieLongc4 I Agree & have great regard for her research. Dr Devi there is a method to form the Process Architecture, the one you have arrived at/&got it right after deliberations, discussion &conversations that will help you map your approach to get going &to take on the Saars Covin2 Virus.

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Seems to me many people aren't being protected properly?! (I'm diabetic yet haven't been called for another 'booster' jab and don't know, if I caught Coronavirus, whether I'd fulfill the criteria for any 'anti-virals?!!)

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Perhaps we should have other health protection measures too? Masks? Filters?

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Is it true that 8% of those who get covid will get long covid? If so, shouldn’t we be a bit more concerned?

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Please now interview an expert on Long Covid. LongCovidKids HoppySaul girl_preston dgurdasani1

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Thanks to Boris and team. Did she say that by any chance

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Lol dey said vaccines work.. Without vaccine also same mortality rate with vaccine also same mortality rate.. Only diff big money for pharma companies.. Who have just rolled out d vaccines without examining its full effect.. Dey cudnt make vaccine for influenza who kills more ppl

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Better prepared but behaving badly.

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Get lost!!

devisridhar JackieLongc4

devisridhar JackieLongc4 Hopefully they will also be protected against Long Covid unlike those of us who got the Alpha strain in March 2020 and still have Long Covid, 27 long, painful, exhausted months later!
