How many of our schools would currently pass these new clean air standards?

“US Center For Disease Control (CDC) announced changes to its guidelines for parents, carers, schools and Early Care & Education programs”

The destruction of the Kakhovka dam is a war crime, a humanitarian disaster, an act of ecocide, and a nuclear escalation all at once.

Let’s break down the magnitude of Russia’s yet another war crime and what we all should do next.

Pre-pandemic, all parents knew that children brought viruses home from school & daycare; daily experience backed by the science on flu/RSV.

Then pandemic misinformation took hold.

The saddest thing about this study is that it had to be published at all.

From the British Heart Foundation published yesterday - everything we’ve been warning about since 2021. Covid is NOT & never had been just a cold. It is damaging our blood vessels & ⬆️our risk of heart attacks, strokes &other CV disease. Please take care x https://t.co/jYj77itC5A

Historic day. For 40 years we've been saddled with bare minimum ventilation standards that were not designed for health. Today, CDC released the 1st ever federal guidance on higher ventilation standards, and ASHRAE also released a doc for public comment🧵

This is a fantastic thread collecting all the evidence with discussion on masks #COVIDisAirborne #CovidIsntOver

[David Newheiser @dnewheiser]

Today a friend told me not to "live in fear" of COVID. In fact, since most people in my life act like the pandemic is over, it's easy to forget that yes, #COVID is still a thing!

As a reminder to my future self, here's the latest evidence that protections remain important: 🧵

It shouldn't have to happen to you for you to care about it. But better late than even later.

New preprint alert: our work to engineer modular live-cell biosensors for any receptor tyrosine kinase of interest!

This was a dream project in so many ways: Payam is a brilliant scientist, and I had the chance collaborate with some great friends (Caleb & Celeste). Bravo to all!

"In real terms“living with the virus”means living with a normalization of death, reinfections, long COVID, disruption and exhausted health-care workers. People would never vote for a deteriorating quality of life, but that’s where policy is now taking us." https://t.co/TuTn34nrLU

I remember breaking down to my Ph.D. advisor about how stupid I felt while troubleshooting a problem in my project when she handed me this paper. Years later it is still relevant to young students starting off in Science. It's ok to feel stupid, we all do on a regular basis.
