Demand ONLY perfect solutions, and there would be no solutions-- Nor any progress at all.

Demanding that any effort solve EVERY SINGLE contributing factor to the problem is falling into a logical fallacy.

Best do nothing?

@BadMedicalTakes Wow, and wouldn't that be useful for serial killers.
Or hired killers.
Kill someone. Have sex with someone to mutate yourself. Get caught? Don't matter, your DNA-goulash excludes you!
And off they go, tra-la-la.

Almost 3 million people got NEWLY vaccinated in America last week....

Stock of high quality surgical masks was insufficient from the beginning.

Inventory failed to rebound quickly because production of crucial masks was outsourced long ago.

Then L.WenM.D. pops off: "we should require PeRfEcT mAsKs."

While the market is flooded with counterfeits.

JUST IN: The 80,000-member coal miners union, United Mine Workers, just called on Joe Manchin to support the Build Back Better Act, telling him that BBB will protect labor and give coal miners a *better* shot at getting jobs in a renewable energy future.

@briarwolf000 @tonyposnanski My father in law is a lung transplant recipient. For him and for everybody with a suppressed immune system, and their families, there is no dropping your guard.

And we/they are every bit as tired of all of this upheaval shit as the rest.

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who agrees that Jesse Watters must be fired by Fox News immediately for publicly calling for the assassination of Dr. Fauci in an "ambush" with a "kill shot."

Unreal.

I still don’t think people understand how well the vaccines *really* work. So let me try to explain.

I spend most of my time treating patients admitted to the hospital with various infections. My colleagues & I are called to see nearly every hospitalized covid patient.🧵

[Representative Rich Brown @reprichbrown]

The gerrymandered maps passed by Republicans last month will be argued next week before the Ohio Supreme Court. Ohioans made it clear they want fair maps that keep communities together and represent the voters. This isn't that map. Ohioans deserve better.

So when the hospital stops all living donor organ transplants, non emergent cancer surgeries, elective joint replacements, adolescent scoliosis surgeries, and anything else potentially requiring admission, tell me again how your decision not to get vaccinated affects only you.
