Israel has violated the ceasefire in Gaza 266 times since it came into effect on January 19, killing at least 132 people, Palestinian security sources have told Al Jazeera. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/dh48s1

These dummies could have had a compliant corporate Dem with literal Uber lobbyists on her staff and instead they did school shootings and measles

An incredible resource full of essential information for everyone about Long #Covid.

“...to care is an act not of weakness, but of strength.” The Lancet response: bit.ly/4jRb5Av

Clinical medicine is proving to be one of the best use cases for #AI right now. Instead of eliminating jobs, AI could improve patient outcomes, relieve burdens on clinicians, and help mitigate the physician shortage.

Gearing up for a Covid-safer work trip: ✅ 2 air purifiers for the meeting room ✅ 1 KF94 mask per day (plus a couple backups) ✅ A few SIP valves for evening drinks ✅ Far UVC light with a belt holster #covid

I need the C🦠- safe community to hear something very clearly from me… Esp those of you who have not engaged your legislators about mask bans. Anyone, and I mean ANYONE, on any side of aisle politicizing a medical device is a PROBLEM. It must stop now.

A few clips from goofing around in #Fortnite over the weekend and experimenting with CapCut.

A poem not written by AI about a #poem written by AI.

Another study shows that getting #Covid multiple times increases your risk of developing Long Covid: 📈 Prevalence of Long Covid in the study was 18.9% 🦠 Those with multiple infections were more likely to develop Long Covid vs. those with a single infection (30.8% vs. 16.7%)

As always, being #covid cautious doesn’t mean you can’t live your life.

Just the dopamine hit I needed upon having to wake up with a headache after only four hours of sleep. #PTCGPocket

Our COVID response has almost completely ignored disability justice. This does not bode well for how governments will respond to the escalating climate crisis.

Still have yet to try a single battle but loving the collection aspect of #PTCGPocket

A little #drawing progress this morning.

Wishing for lobbies full of bots this holiday season so I can pretend I’m good at #Fortnite.

“The facts are clear. Universal healthcare costs less, renders the same high quality care, will save at least 68,000 lives annually…” Really nice breakdown from @qasimrashid.com on the “arguments” against universal #healthcare.

Workforce growth among companies that allow hybrid work is outpacing that of firms mandating a return to offices, data from Revelio Labs shows.

Nature review on mitochondrial dysfunction due to #Covid: ➡️ Mitochondrial impairment is more severe in patients with Long Covid, but even asymptomatic individuals show some level of dysfunction. ➡️ Mitochondrial dysfunction may contribute to the increased risk of impaired organ function post-Covid.

Pokémon TCG Pocket really nailed the free to play balance. I haven’t spent a cent on this game, and I’ve already got over 500 cards since launch. The game is still making millions from people who want to collect even more. Loving this so far. #PTCGPocket

And people wonder why we want these executives dead
