United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Hmmm only have had a quick look but from a brief look into trying to find out who harvardpublichealth actually are, not sure I trust anything what they say not to be some political/medical propaganda.
Lets not forget they put all the data in an excel spreadsheet and then lost a lot. So yeah best public health data in the world... very much arguable.
The NHS is well known for out of date pcs etc. Data is often restricted from department to department. Gathering group data for reseach is possible. But far from responsive.
The system is just not designed for the short notice analasis the pandemic required. Because making it so has never been a consideration. Instead the history has been about researchers analysing data over time.
