Threads exchange. A surgeon replied to my post about doctors not wearing high quality masks around transplant patients

Post surgical infections are not from oral flora or random viruses - they are from the patients skin flora and, in the case of transplants, reactivated viruses that already are within the patient or rarely introduced thy the transplanted organ

Not mutually exclusive? Airborne viral transmission is a separate risk from surgical site infection.

Covid spreads through the air. A doctor wearing an insufficient mask can certainly pass it to a vulnerable patient

Today I had to explain to a surgeon why it's important to wear respirator style masks around vulnerable patients. I am tired

We should wash our hands to protect us from many infections but washing your hands alone WILL NOT protect you from catching COVID. It’s predominantly airborne.

FΕ«ga ι’¨ι›… can be translated as "common ways with grace."

The difficulties of life are a mirror which shows the frequency and clumsiness of how we falter, despite our best efforts. But fΕ«ga is when we do not give up and keep working to overcome our falls from grace.

This is the fΕ«ga of our karate.

After 8 million doses, COVID vaccines at this point are one of the most tested medical interventions in history and one of the safest ever

Open Letter to WHO: A Call for the Universal use of Respirators in Healthcare - WHN January 7, 2026 The letter below (a button to download it as a .pdf file is at the bottom of this page) was sent to seven top officials at the World Health Organization on Wednesday 7 January. Press c...

When you see someone wearing a mask, do you think they're being silly?

Do you think they're being a bit masochistic?

Or do you think they're being smart?

Please look at the end of the letter, see who signed it and who endorsed it.

Something to think about...

McKenzie Scott, Melinda French Gates, and Laurene Powell Jobs are all far better humans than their one-time husbands were. All putting their money to work in constructive ways that their husbands never did.

So let me get this straight. Bidens autopen was treated like a constitutional crisis. But Trumps social media is apparently run by an unnamed staffer with full access to post anything at any time. Totally fine. Nothing to see here.

Yes, please keep buying books!! There are so many amazing ones listed in the original quoted thread, as well as elsewhere on Bluesky. Bluesky is basically where I get all of my book buying recs!

(Also please read them… but you know, let’s start with buying…)

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has also been promoting Heritage Foundation collaborator Jonathan Haidt, who promotes the trans contagion conspiracy theory (basically the internet is turning your kids trans so we need KOSA). And Joseph Gordon-Levitt is selling this to liberals! www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6wR...

7 key questions that Ro Khanna wants to ask Ghislaine Maxwell when she appears before Oversight tomorrow that Todd Blanche did not ask. But unlike with Blanche, Maxwell will refuse to answer them. Why is she getting special treatment from DOJ? bsky.app/profile/meid...

Is Tulsi Gabbard the Most Shameless, Desperate Member of the Trump Cabinet? The former Democratic congresswoman turned director of national intelligence is willing to U-turn on the 2020 election and war with Venezuela and Iran just to appease her boss and keep her job.

I wrote about Tulsi Gabbard and her endless pro-Trump sycophantic U-turns on the 2020 election, on Iran, and on Venezuela.

If one MF’ing inbred, mouthbreathing, momma’s tit sucking Trumper complains to me about Bad Bunny & the Superbowl halftime show then says the Epstein Files are a democratic hoax I’m gonna rip his balls off but I’ll smile for him. Kindness matters

BASH: Is this measles outbreak a consequence of the administration undermining support for vaccines?

DR OZ: I don't believe so. Secretary Kennedy has been advocating for measles vaccines

Gripen - A True Thread!

As per his usual Sushko got the basics almost right, and thereafter he veered off into the ditch.
So, let us clarify all things Gripen related to Ukraine.
Let us begin with that there confusingly enough are two completely different Gripen planes.
