Someone just told me that sarscov2 is just the common cold because they'd seen a table of viruses that pointed out that an example of a coronavirus was the common cold. I wonder if they know death cap is just a mushroom.

Americans are losing a vast array of people and programs dedicated to keeping them healthy. Gone are specialists who were confronting a measles outbreak in Ohio, workers who drove a van to schools in NC to offer vaccinations and a program that provided free tests to sick people in Tennessee.

Lots of things I like about freelancing, but having to explain that I don’t get a paycheque every month and therefore can’t do things for free is not one of them. Freelancers have no sick leave, no paid holidays and no benefits, and if we do something for free it means less time to earn in.

For those interested in Dutch politics: Far-right leader, Geert Wilders, just pulled the plug on the government coalition that his party PVV was a part of. Because other parties are not “signing up to his party’s asylum plans” May I add that this happened as his party was slipping in polls…

13% of Finns (2% of Europeans) carry a gene that increases the risk of long Covid by 60%. Considering we have had zero mitigations since 2022 and the availability of vaccines is very limited ("healthy" kids under the age of 18 cannot get any), we might have the world's highest prevalence of LC 🇫🇮🥇
