Government response to COVID-19 was โ€˜too little too lateโ€™, inquiry concludes Report says 23,000 deaths could have been avoided with earlier lockdown

Lockdowns in 2020/2021 โ€˜undoubtedly saved livesโ€™ but โ€˜only became inevitable because of the acts and omissions of the four governmentsโ€™ - UK COVID Inquiry 2025

Key lesson: if you oppose lockdowns, support proactive interventions that could obviate their use.

Happy to share my newest paper on the Cass Review: "No Ethics in the Cass Review: Could This Be Justified?"
I conclude that the Review deliberately blurs a methodologically essential distinction between a clinical review and an independent review for the NHS.

Really good article. โ€œThere are autisms, rather than just autism.โ€

While it can be challenging, letโ€™s try and celebrate diversity; letโ€™s face it: itโ€™s the thing that not only makes human culture fertile but is the root of all life on earth.
