A woman has been arrested and confined for refusing treatment and spreading TB.
This is a weird disconnect. We're still enforcing some public health measures at the same time the CDC's official policy is for people to go to work sick with active COVID.

The gaslighting therapists are doing to people who are afraid of getting this virus is so unethical. Iβm here to tell you youβre not crazy for fearing getting COVID. Itβs not all in your head. Youβre not the problem. Itβs okay to be afraid of a mass disabling and mass death virus
@Todd__S I think about this a lot, and I'm old enough to remember when it wasn't this universally gruesome, ineffectual, childish, and irresponsible. I can't figure out what happened.

This is the test result for my almost* completely asymptomatic 8 year old.

FDA warns of false negative results with any molecular test for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 variants, and notes that mutations in the virus can also impact performance of antigen and serology tests. H/T Rissa @ItsailsFL
So many people stopped wearing a mask simply because βeveryone else didβ.
Iβm sorry but thatβs a pitiful excuse to no longer engage in behaviour that helps keep public spaces safe.

As suspected, some lfts/rats are proving less accurate against new variants.
I won't be surprised if that trend continues.
After all, there's some very slight evolutionary pressure there, isn't there?
