All #DallasCounty schools should be offering virtual options for unvaccinated PreK-6th graders Dallas ISD Dallas Morning News

The city council (all vaccine eligible adults) test before meeting in person. Why isn’t Dallas ISD using Covid relief funds to test teachers and unvaccinated students?

I truly hope more of you understand and appreciate that in a plague, all that matters is surviving, and ideally, maintaining as much as sanity and peace as possible — anything else is just good fortune.

covid may be an airborne pathogen but it's a vascular disease that also attacks other organs and brain and i really wish public health messaging made that more clear instead of only focusing on initial respiratory symptoms

I've finally worked out why the constant statement of "underlying conditions" irks me so much when reporting Covid deaths. There is an implied end to the sentence which we all understand. What they are really saying is ...(and so we shouldn't be too concerned). Well, I am.

Why are my academic colleagues silent on genocide? Is The Lancet not credible enough to take our deaths seriously? Is your potential grant funding more important than our lives? Afraid of anonymous peer-review? 186,000 dead not enough?

Israel’s army has released fabricated dossiers framing us, the last remaining journalists in North Gaza reporting on Israel’s extermination and ethnic-cleansing campaign, as “terrorists”. This blatant and belligerent attempt to transform us, the last witnesses in the north, into
