Pay attention The American Medical Association is trying to save us. We have a lot of viruses, diseases and early pandemic stuff going on right now.

Yes, they aren't right on everything (said yesterday TB spread by droplet,) but it's a good source for basic info on outbreaks if CDC is throttled.

For instance, I didn't know it was 6 herds in Nevada with H5N1 var. D1.1 until their update. :)

TB is spread from an infected person by droplet nuclei
airborne after a sneeze, cough, talking, and/or singing.

It's airborne but they said it was "spread by droplet."

Not droplet nuclei, which is just a confusing way to say aerosol.😅

They have been pretty useless in the past. They have leaned GOP

As long as they put out good info, that's all that matters to me.

I watched their videos on YouTube for a while but they really don’t do enough to push masks. Everyone is still stuck on handwashing. Do both maybe? 🥰😝

It's just a ten minute show though and they're covering public health news, not recommendations.
