Awful times, beautiful people. Thousands of Romanians drove to the border with Ukraine to pick up refugees and offer them a ride and a place to stay. Queues on one side to escape, queues on the other to help. #StandWithUkraine

Starlink terminals are coming to Ukraine! Thank you @elonmusk, thank you everyone, who supported Ukraine!

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

@FedorovMykhailo Starlink service is now active in Ukraine. More terminals en route.

Perhaps instead of talking about rich people's net "worth", we should talk about their net *appropriation* — of human labour and our planet's resources.

“We didn’t have help from the major COVID vaccine producers, so we did it ourselves to show the world that it can be done, and be done here, on the African continent” 👏👏👏

It’s shameful rich countries and pharma aren’t doing more to share the vaccines.

Thinking that endemicity is both mild & inevitable is wrong & dangerous:it sets humanity up for many more years of disease,including unpredictable waves of outbreaks. It is more productive to consider how bad things could get if we keep giving the virus opportunities to outwit us

More reasons than protecting vs severe illness to love vaccines
vs #LongCovid bonus

[Preston Igwe, MD @PrestonIgweMD]

A quick story. I’m on ambulatory medicine at the VA. Yesterday I went to get a patient from the waiting room. A Black man who served in Vietnam. When I introduced myself as Dr. Igwe, he gave me a very strange look. I asked if I had the wrong person, but he said “no, that’s me”.

💔 Booster doses will NOT protect if people in low (and middle) income countries are not protected. Period.

[Ana-Maria Lebada @AnaMariaLebada]

I cannot help but wonder how the Omicron wave would have looked like in Israel if the entire country had been vaxxed & boosted with Moderna instead of Pfizer. Any data disaggregated by vaccine when it comes to Omicron out there?

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

Among >900,000 people vaccinated with Moderna matched vs >900,000 vaccinated with Pfizer, a significantly less hospitalization rate (and infection rate) through the Delta wave for Moderna

@EricTopol @KPSCalResearch @KPSCALnews How do you explain that in Ontario the majority of people hospitalized & in ICU are fully vaccinated? https://t.co/HSjA0Ch9c0

The climate crisis reveals that our civilization has never really been organized around science, contrary to the usual Enlightenment narrative. It is organized around capital. Science is embraced when it serves the interests of capital, and is often ignored when it does not.

@nycgov What are the number of new cases, hospitalizations and deaths for today? Can you please resume posting them regularly? Extremely important for New Yorkers to make decisions about their daily life.

[Ryan Merkow, MD, MS @rpmerkow]

Today I told two patients with metastatic colorectal cancer I have to postpone their liver resections next week. One broke down and cried into her arms. I feel like I failed them. Please, please get vaccinated and wear a mask to stay out of the hospital.

@screamingmd Non-medical people hear “mild” and think “hot chocolate and a movie day” and medical folks think “won’t require assisted breathing to stay alive”.

[Ana-Maria Lebada @AnaMariaLebada]

@NYCMayor Mr. Mayor, when are you going to start posting the number of daily COVID-19 positive cases, hospitalizations and deaths? Full transparency is essential for trust-building and good governance, and thus for compliance with your recommendations.

BREAKING: After a decade of constant pressure by students, faculty, and alums, @HARVARD IS FINALLY DIVESTING FROM FOSSIL FUELS.

It’s a massive victory for our community, the climate movement, and the world — and a strike against the power of the fossil fuel industry. (THREAD)

The Biden administration will announce a goal of producing almost half the nation’s energy from the sun by 2050 - a major shift in energy policy.

Researchers in the Netherlands have trained honeybees to rapidly detect COVID-19. Our biodiversity must be the bedrock for innovation if we are to prevent ecological collapse (and thus our species' collapse). Let's protect biodiversity to protect ourselves https://t.co/OkVC4iuQIK
