Quebec appears to be winning its battle against the rising tide of measles after 45 cases were confirmed province-wide this year. "We've had no locally transmitted measles cases since March 25, so that's good news," said Dr. Paul Le Guerrier, responsible for immunization for Montreal Public Health. There are 17 patients with measles in Quebec currently, and the most recent case is somebody who was infected while abroad, he said. But it was no small task to get to this point.

I’m formatting my thesis to submit with my graduation application and because I’m getting a creative writing degree most of the formatting guidelines don’t apply to me, especially the bits relating to human test subjects

I’m fully aware those are for people getting a degree in like psychology and medicine and biology related fields but I found it quite amusing trying to imagine a scenario where an MFA student would have to use those guidelines

Labour is going to win the general election and then say this doesn’t go far enough.

"Sunak said ‘something has gone wrong’ since the pandemic to increase the number of people signed off work for long-term sickness" (metro)

staring into the camera like its the fucking office

"Mr Sunak also said, if the Conservatives win the general election, those who were still out of work after 12 months after support from a work coach will have "their benefits removed entirely"." (bbc)

just fucking shoot me now i hate it here

okay logging back in for one thing:

the government now has an open call for evidence on their proposed changes.

"This call for evidence is part of a wider suite of activity to reform the fit note and will act as a prelude to a full consultation on specific policy proposals which will be launched later this year."

it's all well and good for people to say "oh just because he said it, doesn't mean it will happen", as if the government hasnt happily let disabled people die from benefit cuts, lack of social care and oh yeah FUCKING COVID. have people forgotten that? 6/10 covid deaths in the uk were disabled people and nobody cared. so don't think they won't keep making it worse for us.

please read, please share and please if youre in the uk, please consider fighting with us to stop this.

i am so tired of watching my community die.

[ID: a tweet by @ MetroUK on 19th April 2024 reading “GP’s will soon be stripped of the ability to sign people off work as part of a major government initiative to crack down on “sick note” culture. Rishi Sunak says people should stop “over-medicalising the everyday challenges and worries of life”. Attached below the text is a picture of a GP signing off on a sick note. /End ID]
