The UK Covid Inquiry, at great expense, has issued recommendations on preparing for the 'next pandemic'. But there is still no call for research into the effectiveness of lockdowns, say Carl Heneghan and Tom Jefferson.

TWO FACED - WEST BRITS
Provisional Sinn Féin Booted out of Trinity over hate mail
It was reported in today’s Irish Independent that SINN Fein has been booted out of Trinity College after the campus branch chairperson circulated a hate email containing threats to Margaret Thatcher.
The message urged Sinn Fein members to insult the late husband of the former British Prime Minister, and contained the statement: "We'll get the ******* yet."
The line is seen as a reference to the infamous Brighton bombing, when the IRA attempted to assassinate Mrs Thatcher and the British Cabinet at the Tory Party conference in 1986.
The sender of the email, Grace Vaughey, Sinn Fein Trinity Cumann chairperson, has been disciplined by college authorities, but not Sinn Fein, and she remains a member of the party.
The email encouraged people to send hate mail to a Margaret Thatcher fan site, to coincide with her recent 80th birthday. It called for recipients to insult Denis Thatcher, who died two years ago.
Sinn Fein has been banned from holding meetings on the Trinity campus for the rest of the year, and has had college funding and access to its office withdrawn.
Yesterday's edition of Trinity News reported that Ms Vaughey had been fined €75 by the college, while Ogra Shinn Fein was not allowed hold events on campus. Sinn Fein's spokesperson said Ms Vaughey forwarded an offending email written by somebody else. The email's author is not being named.
The party was not condemning the incident, but described the email as in "appalling taste" and "extremely juvenile". "She (Ms Vaughey) should have taken more care," the spokesperson said. "She has apologised. It was a complete error of judgment. It won't happen again."
The email came to light and action was taken by the college after a Sinn Fein member in the college made a complaint.
Trinity Sinn Fein's website features a logo of a coffin draped with the tricolour and with three gunmen standing over it firing into the air. The slogan beneath says 'Remember Our Dead'.
Maybe they will stop recruiting for their army when you stop recruiting for yours.
I know you don't recruit any more, officially that is, so please do accept my humblest apologies if I have traduced your position.
If this story is true ( and there has to be a pinch of salt or 2) , which is more worrying for Sinn Fein , the poor taste and judgement of one person or the fact one of them ran and told the teacher ?
Me sees a cunning new leader in the offing !!
Padraig MacLochlainn S/F went to theSomme with Paddy Hart F/G and Billy De Cursey DUP.and came back saying we must all put on a poppy.Not me,no way Mr Mayor of Buncrana.
I suggest Barry that all of us have forwarded some dodgy e-mails purely in the interest of bad taste and that her mistake was to get caught. She didn't write it and I think it's not fair to judge her by some unrealistic standard - though, let's face it, as a cumann chair she might have had more sense.
As for the tout - there's plenty of people who join political parties and get on their mailing lists at college but never attend one meeting in their lives.
