Einer der ganz grossen des internationalen Films, der wunderbare
Robert Redford,
Ist heute, im Alter von 89 Jahren, verstorben.
„All is lost“
Das war der letzte Film den ich mit ihm gesehen habe; eigentlich ein Monolog, auch auf das Leben und seine Endlichkeit.
RIP Bob!
🕯️🙏
9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American."
It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." https://t.co/hYWnhYjCDY
I joined eight former CDC directors—spanning Republican and Democratic administrations—to share this warning: our nation’s health is at risk.
The very systems that protect us from disease, cancer, and future health threats are being dismantled. https://t.co/PIHGQW13BN
The report of the one health commission on the interconnectedness of health of humans, animals and ecosystems is out. Speaking of need for systems thinking when addressing the triple planetary health threats: climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution https://t.co/ZtfKZRHcj3
Meta beendet sein Faktencheck-Programm, um dem Faschisten und Dauerlügner Trump nicht mehr ein Dorn im Auge zu sein. Von Musk und Twitter müssen wir gar nicht mehr reden. Die Social-Media-Plattformen sind nicht unsere Partner im Kampf gegen Lügen. Sie sind die Partner der Lügner.
Félicitations à la Pre @EckerleIsabella et la Dre Pauline Vetter pour leurs nominations à la tête du Centre des maladies virales émergentes 👉 https://t.co/zbMljcCJdq #virus#épidémie#médecine@WHO@UNIGEnews@gcevd
I was asked yesterday by big media if we should be surprised by novel epidemics (H5N1, Mpox, COVID-19, Lassa, MERS, Dengue, Oropouche, etc). My answer was that we should be surprised by not expecting diseases to emerge when we destroy the environment. https://t.co/fQyHvB9yxO
Is Covid still deadlier than the flu in 2024?
The short answer is yes!
In 2024, Covid remains deadlier than flu.

Weil der Text über die #Gerichtsverhandlung gegen die #Menschen die gegen Prof. Dr. #Drosten gehetzt haben, viel über die Probleme unserer Justiz besagt.

we observe, measure, analyse, conclude, and hopefully that conclusion is: not a big risk. But if it were a big risk, we would be too late already. The fundamental question is, are we able and willing to prevent pandemics. I think technically we can, but societally probably not.
