Next bit is about halfwits promoting homeopathy as an alternative to vaccination, I mean really.

Homeoprophylaxis stub DRAFT
Homeoprophylaxis or homeopathic prophylaxis is the use of homeopathy as an alternative to vaccination in the prevention of serious infectious diseases such as measles or malaria. It is not supported by evidence and is controversial even among homeopaths ("The Society [of Homeopaths] acknowledges that homeoprophylaxis is a controversial area of homeopathy which differs significantly from usual homeopathic practice..."[REF https://homeopathy-soh.org/about-us/position-statement/]) as well as among doctors and health regulators.

Promotion of homeopathic alternatives to vaccines has been characterized as dangerous, inappropriate and irresponsible.

2013
Following a measles outbreak in Swansea and a reduction in MMR vaccine-uptake in Totnes in 2013 a number of homeopathic societies in the UK published position statements stating that homeopathic alternatives to vaccination should not be relied upon.

BHA FAQS
https://www.britishhomeopathic.org/faqs/ "Can homeopathy provide an alternative to vaccination? There is no evidence to show that homeopathic medicines can be used instead of vaccination. The Faculty of Homeopathy recommends that immunisation is carried out in the usual way, unless there are strong medical contraindications. For an information sheet about the balance of risks involved in making decisions about immunisation and the role that homeopathy can play, visit our popular topics page."

in the context of ill-founded public alarm over the safety of vaccines stoked by the anti-vaccination movement.

In December 2014, Australian homeopathy supplier Homeopathy Plus! were found to have acted deceptively in promoting homeopathic alternatives to vaccines.

COPY of List of Twitter traditions
The list of Twitter traditions includes examples of annually repeated 'events' on the internet micro-blogging service Twitter, usually linked to a hashtag or a particular account.

#DuvetKnowItsChristmas - Christmas Sleeping Arrangements
In December 2011 musician and writer Rhodri Marsden found himself sleeping in his sister's old room during the Christmas holidays, tweeting to his Twitter followers that "I think it's time for a photo meme of grown adults in single beds in their parents' house." His tweet unleashed a flood of responses from those staying in childhood rooms (now turned into offices or used as storage spaces) who shared photos of incongruous bed linen and undignified sleeping arrangements. The hashtag #DuvetKnowItsChristmas was widely adopted in 2016 after Twitter user CrouchingBadger suggested "Also, can we refer to this as #duvetknowitschristmas?" (though user 'Hashithappens' used the tag in 2015 in a reply) and it continues to be a popular annual Twitter event. In 2018 Twitter partnered with Shelter to encourage those sharing images on the hashtag to donate to the charity in support of those without a room at Christmas.

#JoinIn
Comedian Sarah Millican sent a tweet on Christmas Day 2012 reminding her followers that they were not alone and encouraging them to share what they were doing: "And if circumstances mean you're on your own today, remember, you're not! We are here. I'll post up what i'm up to and join in if you like". A little later she followed this up with a tweet suggesting a hashtag (#joinin), which let people keep track of the shared conversations.

#SuperbOwl
During the NFL's annual championship 'Super Bowl' game advertisers, unless authorised to use the official trademark, must use a different term (such as 'The Big Game') to refer to the event. Comedian Stephen Colbert used the technically permitted phrase "Superb Owl" in 2014 and others adopted this term with #SuperbOwl being used on Twitter to share photographs of owls. Twitter does not distinguish between the hashtags #SuperBowl and #SuperbOwl so tweets from fans of the game and fans of owls overlap.

John Lewis and John Lewis retail
For a number of years the UK department store John Lewis used the Twitter name of JohnLewisRetail (now @JLPartners) however this did not stop customers from sending customer service-related tweets to @JohnLewis, a man living in North America who merely shares the same name. The tweets 'to' him peak in the Christmas season in response to John Lewis' annual Christmas advert. His good-humoured and helpful responses have become a popular internet tradition resulting in his account being verified and his own appearance in a Twitter UK video advert in December 2018.

Ed Balls Day
On 28 April 2011, Ed Balls, urged by an assistant to search Twitter for a recent article about him, accidentally entered his intended search term in the wrong box and sent a tweet reading only "Ed Balls". The tweet has never been deleted and the incident is now celebrated as Ed Balls Day every 28 April, with followers retweeting his original message and commemorating the occasion in other ways.

International "When's International Men's Day?" Day
On International Women's Day in 2013 (8 March) comedian Richard Herring tweeted "International women's Day? When are we going to get an International MEN'S day? ... On November 19th. Hope that answers your question" after noticing a tendency among some people on Twitter to ask "When's International Men's Day?" in response to the existence of a day celebrating women. The following year he continued, quote tweeting a variation of his response to hundreds of people asking the same question, and this tradition has continued. In 2018 he raised £150,000 for the charity Refuge by spending the day answering everyone who asked.

Sarah Angliss - this headline will be subsumed into page heading
Sarah Angliss is an English composer, broadcaster, thereminist and live performer whose music combines ancient instruments with electronic and robotic inventions. She is currently (October 2018) writing a new chamber opera, Giant, supported by a Jerwood Opera Writing Fellowship and Snape Music. Giant tells the story of the Charles Byrne, known as The Irish Giant, who lived in fear that his remains would go on public display, against his wishes. The piece blends voices with viola da gamba, clavicymbalum and electronics.

She has created music and sounds which blur the line between sound design and composed music for a number of theatrical works including The Twilight Zone, based on the 1950s television series, at the Almeida ("I’m trying to make sound that gets under your skin" ) The Effect at the National Theatre, Once in a Lifetime at the Young Vic and The Hairy Ape at The Old Vic and Park Avenue Armory in New York.

Sarah has written and presented the radio shows The Bird Fancyer's Delight and Echo in a Bottle (part of the Pursuit of Beauty series) for BBC Radio 4. In April 2017 Sarah released her solo album Ealing Feeder, described as 'a subtle gem' by Robert Barry writing in The Wire and the "most inventive album I've heard in a long while" by Simon Reynolds writing in 4 Columns.

She wrote the foreword for An Individual Note by Daphne Oram, which was re-published after a crowdfunding campaign by the Oram Trust in 2016.

Sara was a resident artist at Limehouse Town Hall and a Visiting Research Fellow at the Sound Practice Research Unit, Goldsmiths.

Ibid refs (SoH draft)
In the United Kingdom, the Professional Standards Authority (PSA) placed some requirements on the Society of Homeopaths (SoH) when they reaccredited their members' register under their Accredited Register scheme, due to concerns about the way in which members marketed CEASE therapy. The PSA asked the SoH to confirm "what action it will take to ensure children are safe as a condition of its re-accreditation". In June 2018 the Society of Homeopaths published a position statement advising their members not to imply any cure of autism when marketing CEASE therapy. It has been estimated that more than 120 homeopaths are offering CEASE in the UK though not all are SoH members.
