Putin is going to find it difficult to arrest all these people with his jails overflowing. Well done, brave Russian people of St Petersburg. 🇷🇺✊

Protests are erupting in several Russian cities tonight against Putin's large-scale invasion of Ukraine, along with attempts from police to forcibly suppress them. Here's his hometown of St. Petersburg. I'll be threading videos below as I find them.

Why should bread have all the fun, when there's Weetabix? Serving up @HeinzUK Beanz on bix for breakfast with a twist. #ItHasToBeHeinz #HaveYouHadYourWeetabix

The 'world beating' Serco Test and Trace system is being run on Excel instead of database software - which has caused the latest issues. Next they'll tell us it's run on Windows 95 and they manually back it up on floppy disks each night.

Remember when China offered to “supply” Italy with ventilators? Well apparently sources say that China is actually *selling* the ventilators + masks, but donating the other leftover other PEPs. sneaky language. Lesson is don’t fully believe CCP propaganda rhetoric. #COVID19
In a call between the two foreign ministers, China agreed to supply Italy with 1,000 ventillators and 2 million masks. Additionally, they are donating (!) them 100k respirators, 20k protective suits, and 50k test kits as part of "massive aid" package. corriere.it/politica/20_marz…

NHS doctor here. The levels of fear of our brave nursing staff having to face this imminent wall of death. And these events are still going in. I cannot believe it. And feel ashamed to have a country of weak toothless, compromised leadership.

From a well respected friend and intensivist/A&E consultant who is currently in northern Italy: 1/ ‘I feel the pressure to give you a quick personal update about what is happening in Italy, and also give some quick direct advice about what you should do.

OK guys. China controlled it. South Korea is controlling it. Singapore is controlling it. Taiwan is controlling it. Hong Kong is controlling it. Can we please motivate leaders in our Western countries to do the same? We can learn from Asia and we can do it too!!!

So basically Boris wants to kill off millions of people and just 'take it on the chin' #COVID19
Replying to @StefSimanowitz
On #COVID2019, @BorisJohnson said: “One of the theories is perhaps you could take it on the chin, take it all in one go & allow #coronvirus to move through the population without really taking as many draconian measures.” This is a CRAZY theory! #COVID19 xitter.cf/mvdct/status/123561606…
4/ Another surprise: the Chinese data where the 80% “mild” cases number comes from —that was not a “mild cold”. That was: you have a fever, possibly even a full pneumonia. Not your run-of-the-mill sniffles. “Severe” (which was ~15%) meant you were on oxygen or a ventilator. – at New Haven, CT

Of course! It is not like nobody predicted this. It is just that not many listened.....and even fewer wanted to spent money on it.
Found a couple references predicting #COVID19 outbreak
