As if a measles outbreak, a vaccine preventable disease, was not bad enough, much of the spread appears to be in health care settings.
This is deplorable.

Those CC/LC folks who said it didn’t matter whether tRump or Harris was elected, or voted 3 party, how do you feel now that you are out of the WHO, communication from the NIH and CDC have been halted, and medical research grants have halted, what are your current thoughts/feels?

Don’t Stand So Close to Me

(β€œDue to illness" is usually a stand-in for COVID because touring musicians will void their insurance if they use the actual word. Yet another thing that’s super helpful when you’re trying to get people to understand that COVID is responsible for many health issues.)

Reporting on hospital overcrowding in this passive tone as though it were simply an unpredictable natural disaster is a form of complicity.

We are here because of eyes-wide-open policy choices made by our govts to cut health care funding despite a growing & aging pop'n. #medsky #onpoli #onhealth

You know I love you, @nicktsergas.ca but how can this be considered news anymore? We’ve been reading these studies for, what, 4 years now?

you don't need 200K followers on an app with no algorithm.

Build your community organically by actually talking to people not through follow back nonsense. It's not 2010 and this kind of blatant engagement farming is gross.

The picture shows an image of a manuscript pointing how airborne and foodborne transmission combined can accelerate viral spreading to more people. Plus, we have limited technologies exist to detect viral presence in food.

Just reminding you, if you think #COVID was bad, that's because you never imagined a pandemic with a virus that is AIR- and FOOD-borne at the same time, like #H5N1.
