Covid has killed ~5-6x the number of people this year as those who died in 9-11. Both are heartbreaking, ❤️‍🩹 but only one is grieved publicly. The other is barely noticed & declared over

that cancelled TV show you’ll never stop thinking about:

I wouldn’t think there would be two that close to each other. But I don’t know.

Is the one in Munsinger still active?

Per Dr Atul Gawande, ex USAID: “All malaria supplies protecting 53 million people, mostly children, including bed nets, diagnostics, preventive drugs, and treatments – terminated.”

There are no words that sufficiently describe this level of cruelty and sadism.

Multimillion-dollar Biden-era COVID-19 vax project halted by Trump’s HHS Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. paused a $240 million contract to create a new coronavirus vaccine.

The Covid nasal vaccines may be next up to be axed.

US: "17 states around the U.S. reported "very high" wastewater levels of SARS-CoV-2—the virus that causes COVID-19—during the week between January 5 and January 11."

"This is a drop from the week before, where 20 U.S. states had very high levels."

International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders Lexical retrieval difficulties in post-COVID-19 syndrome: Insights from verbal fluency and naming tasks — María González-Nosti et al. "the central challenge in PCS appears to be associated with the lexical selection process, and this challenge is particularly pronounced among younger patients. The linguistic profile observed in PCS more closely aligns with a form of pure anomia, wherein patients encounter difficulty when accessing and retrieving specific words from their lexical store.

lordy there's so much doomerism about this so if you will allow me my semiregular Lunch Break Rant™...

Huh. I vaguely remembered this case, but I did not remember it was from New Hampshire.

You can cover it up. Or just change the “or” to an “and”.

It's all tied together and don't let them trick you into thinking it's for safety

The star is a nice touch.

A lot of state poll results show ties. So are they tied because of voters — or pollsters? Analysis: Even in a close election, random chance means polls should be showing a broader range of results. That raises the question of whether we’re in for another polling surprise.

Friday morning, iPhones in the 218 blew up with the news that Congressman Rick Nolan had passed away. The accompanying picture in the StarTribune was from Election Night, almost exactly 10 years ago, at a hotel out on Hwy 371, past the mute Paul Buyon.

CanadaHealthwatch.ca 🍁 The most important health news, in one place.

Long COVID Is Harming Too Many Kids. They Need Help. Pediatric long COVID is more common than many thought, and we keep letting kids be reinfected with new variants

Finally, an essential read for everyone especially parents teachers, and education leaders.
Every damn word of this is true:

Great minds think alike. I couldn’t remember the name.

This looks like the game where people take turns drawing line segments. When you finish a square, you put your initials in it. The one with the most squares at the end wins. We used to play this in class with a *very* boring professor.

Did they hire you to fill in for yourself? 🙃

Only if you don’t check your email again until tomorrow.

My kids will tell you the same thing. I couldn't believe it when I came home and found my wife had tried to show them this. In her defense, there have been several times when I've said "we should show the kids movie x" only to realize later that no we shouldn't.

Well, if the “diesel vehicle” is an airplane, then I guess so.

Imagine being a university and getting this so wrong (scroll to the end). 🙄

I went to the barber today and the radio was on Fox News and they were listing all his "accomplishments" and I'm thinking "Boy, he sounds great!"

The requirement forces Oklahoma teachers to "reference" the role of the Ten Commandments in America's founding, so as a historian & teacher, let me offer this suggestion:

"Although some idiots today insist that the Founding Fathers were inspired by the Ten Commandments, they absolutely were not."

A new discovery about carbon dioxide is challenging decades-old ventilation doctrine CO2 is a good proxy for how much exhaled — and potentially infectious — air is in a room. New research suggests the more CO2 there is, the more virus-friendly the air becomes.

It's not just COVID, we could make SUCH A DIFFERENCE if we improved indoor air ventilation. Because it turns out a virus LOVES high CO2.

It is still baffling to me how our society managed to turn COVID into personal masking decisions and not BETTER BUILDINGS.

COVID offers three possible paradigm shifts. If they’re true, and if we actually accept them, so much changes:

- Much of disease transmission is airborne
- The biggest impact of viruses is chronic disease
- Virus exposure harms, not helps, immune systems
