I take pride in being a 'COVID alarmist' because my concerns are entirely grounded in scientific evidence. I discuss what I observe through the microscope. The 'Covid alarmists' community consists of individuals who have chosen to stick with science.

It's laudable that this is happening,but 2 points worth noting. First, this isn't a 'bird flu plan' per se, this is a 'get the price of eggs down' plan. Second, and connected to the first point, this doesn't address dairy cattle. H5N1 needs to be combatted holistically. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Here are the proposition for a new calculation related to the classroom scenario used in the research paper below. This is a more unfavorable case, but also quite common, unfortunately. A short-range/long-range risk comparison would be great.

Accessibility in healthcare isn’t just about ramps. Clinically Vulnerable people know it’s about safety for all patients, especially those at higher risk from airborne viruses. We shouldn't fight for basic protections like masking and ventilation. Safe care is accessible care.

The way it’s described this is not ‘honour killing’, it is extreme abusive control. No need for fancy cultural labels here. It’s plain murder. RIP Rania.

When you’re chronically ill, it can be incredibly hard to maintain a baseline. There’s so much pressure to pretend that you’re better. To smile and deliver a convincing “I’m fine”. To play through the pain. Sometimes the best thing you can do for your body is rest, yet it’s so hard to do:

“I had no idea it was THIS bad!” We’ve all heard this from a friend or family member who becomes chronically ill. Despite watching us suffer for years, they never understand until it happens to them. Please listen to disabled people. It IS that bad. Protect your health. There’s no do overs.

When you’re chronically ill, you have to endure people telling you to “just try harder” or insinuating that you don’t want to get better They don’t understand that health is temporary. Anyone can become disabled at any time It’s not a moral failing. It’s not about “trying harder”. It just happens.

If you want to stand up to fascists, wear a mask. It’s one of the simplest and easiest things you can do to resist. It protects your health, while also protecting disabled and marginalized people who are in grave danger from fascist policies.

If you’re thinking about not vaccinating your children against measles, please speak with those who watched kids suffer, be disabled and die from the disease before we had vaccines. Almost everyone from the pre-vaccine days has a horror story (or many). It’s not mild. Vaccines work.

How about instead of cutting SSA employees and making it even harder for people to access benefits, we give everyone a basic living wage? It would greatly reduce the paperwork and administrative costs of disability applications, while ensuring better quality of life for all.

Humanity: "our kids are our future" US Leadership: This kid just died of measles, but some doctor and scientists said there is too little information to assume the vaccine would have prevented this death." Bullshit. No decent doctor or scientists would say that.

I can’t believe that we are at the point where we need to constantly remind everyone that children aren’t meant to die from vaccine-preventable diseases.

We are more than our ability to be cogs in the machine of capitalism. This idea that only those who “contribute” are worthy and that everyone MUST contribute is rooted in eugenics and fascism. People relying on SNAP aren’t the problem. The billionaire oligarch & his friends are the problem.

“The canceled FDA advisory meeting comes days after a CDC vaccine advisory committee meeting was postponed” Believe people when they tell you who they are. RFK Jr is anti-vaccine, and his appointment will have devastating consequences. If you’re not up to date on boosters, get them now.
