There is NO benefit to the host from infection with a pathogenic virus.

@LSUgym Stunning!!! Hard work and determination!

This is what it looks like to take the Lord's name in vain--using God to justify bombings and Bible verses to promote violence.

My best career advice is to reduce your lifetime number of cumulative SARS-CoV-2 infections.

@LSUgym @kailin_chio @SEC @LSUsports Such strong and elegant routines! All that hard work show!! Was excited to be there in person-

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "[JD Vance]'s comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

.@repterrisewell @SenTuberville @SenKatieBritt Food is NOT optional. Many older adults, people with disabilities, children, and families are already going hungry. Playing the blame game is not feeding anyone. Every member of Congress should act to fund SNAP.

Today I am proud of being part of a protective family “pod” watching after the young, the old and the pregnant. #vaxup #MaskUp #CleanAir

As a psychologist, I recommend reflecting each day on something simple that made you proud. Then, ground it in the current context.

For example: "Today, I did ________, during the 11th wave of an ongoing pandemic infecting >1 million Americans/day, amid geopolitical crises."

@michael_hoerger Thank you for this reminder. So easy to fall into despair

As a health scientist, it's shocking that up to 3,300 Americans are expected to die (excess deaths) as a result of this week's infections.

From a Twitter friend, regarding Novavax availability at CostCo:

"Sanofi will be distributing Novavax this season and they expect FDA to approve the 25-26 formulation in late Sept/early Oct. We have placed preorders and will have it in stock when available."

That's the last day the U.S. dipped below 200,000 daily COVID infections, per PMC estimates from CDC wastewater data.

We're hovering not far above that at an estimated 232,000/day.

Take notice. Cases will tick up again soon.

@SenBillCassidy If federal, state and local education authorities actually followed the law it would improve outcomes. This sends a message to state DOEs and local boards they can disregard laws that protect the students with the most needs with impunity. Local control failed my daughter.

Sitting at my gate in CLT and there are 10 employees within 20 feet sitting and on their phones. It seems odd

I love my country with all my heart and I've never been more embarrassed for America than the spectacle I just witnessed in the Oval Office.
Zelensky is fighting for the survival of his country, his people and their democracy.
Trump and Vance appear to be completely aligned with Putin, the invader whose aim has been to conquer Ukraine.
Zelensky should know that millions and millions of Americans still stand with him and his valiant people.

This is a hell of a video.🔥📹

"So they know Covid spreads in the air like smoke.
They know it's still infecting disabling and killing us.
And they know they can easily prevent it."
