Module 3, UK Covid Inquiry

9 September 2024

Remembering this snippet from the opening submissions by S Simblet KC, on behalf of the Covid Airborne Transmission Alliance (CATA).

“…In concordance with the expert IPC reports, CATA wishes to see immediate changes to IPC guidance……..”

And here we are in the seventh year of Covid with the same IPC guidelines, the same gaslighting, and a nurse last week screaming at me down the phone that Covid isn’t airborne.

CATA has found via FoI requests that government bodies did not fully disclose vital evidence to COVID Inquiry. They ignored views of PHE that airborne precautions should have been available to all HCWs. WHY?

CATA (Covid Airborne Transmission Alliance) has today issued this press release ahead of next Thursday's publication of the Inquiry's module 3 report:

🚨 Covid Airborne Transmission Alliance (CATA) have revealed, via FOI requests, an apparent coverup by government agencies and individuals, who concealed evidence to the #CovidInquiry on virus transmission

A healthcare worker with Long Covid was told to “self-manage” while becoming too unwell to work.

When support systems fail, staff are left navigating illness alone.

Long Covid Awareness Day is not only about recognition — it’s about prevention.
