Kimberly Prather, Ph.D. VeeZeeTO Airborne and Covid origins are intimately tied, and the reason why this got out of control. Gain of Function research without airborne precautions in a BSL-2 setting was a disaster waiting to happen.
Kudos to you for calling this out; hopefully it will prevent future similar

Climate change is likely to hit the U.S. economy and budget with “systemic” economic shocks that cascade beyond the immediate harm into economy-wide meltdowns.

Expedient transparency & decisive leadership are needed now!

“In the face of uncertainty, complacency is not an option. The U.S. must act decisively, acknowledging the potential gravity of the H5N1 situation while leveraging every available resource to safeguard public health.

The President speaks out regularly against voter suppression.

The question is where are our civic leaders? Where are our corporate leaders? Their failure to stand up for democracy will be remembered as one of the great tragedies of this time in history. Nicolle Wallace MSNBC

I have a serious, no shade question for lifelong Republicans…

Sad but true story: on plane (in my mask) this morning and lady next to me starts talking about covid. Says she works for Toyota USA and they told her she had to train with a gentleman who admitted he had covid, but didn’t want to lose his attendance bonus…🤦🏽‍♂️

I don't know exactly how to make it happen -- I'm doing my part by shouting about it on my little niche podcast -- but we really need to move *the grid* to the center of US energy & economic policy. People, even professionals in the field, have not fully caught up to this.

Thanks, Simon Fraser University pippsbc for hosting!

This is the crux of Covid spread. People see things as ME not WE. It’s “I got covid & it wasn’t so bad so it’s ok if I get it again.”

They fail to consider they could have given it to someone who had a severe case, became disabled or died. We beat Covid when we think WE not ME.

Tom Nichols has an interesting thread on what he sees as the misuses of “fascism.” As someone who once argued that actual full-fledged fascism wasn’t possible in U.S.—and now sadly admits I was wrong—I think it’s worth reading even as I disagree. Here’s why…1/
