The violence and suffering continues with little end in sight.
Hospitals, schools, & refugee camps are targeted by the Israeli Defense Forces

Strikes are always a last resort for union members—like when @aftunion educators cannot get the #RealSolutions they need to ensure their students' success. And now the research shows that it doesn't harm the students as so many claim. https://t.co/j5khTvz7ql

We have to rely on wastewater data these days for a better idea of what's going on, but logging it above will add it to the official positive test count.
so what i’m gathering is that we’re in an immense covid wave just in time for back to school, mpox was declared an international emergency and H5N1 is already human to human spread
do some people associate masks with anxiety they felt about the pandemic before they stopped caring? could that be why they accuse anyone who still masks of doing so out of anxiety?
The thing about “ADHD is only a disability under capitalism” line of thinking is that, while well meaning (fuck capitalism)it ignores a lot of the struggles with executive function that are present even when all our financial/material support needs are met and we’re accommodated.
For all you muppets spreading misinformation about this being solely a sexually transmitted disease, please read . How It Spreads | Mpox | Poxvirus | CDC https://t.co/bHSE09UYhb
Gonna say the same things about mpox as last time:
* Precautionary principle, not assuming the best case.
* Don't dismiss multiple modes of transmission (including airborne).
* Protect healthcare workers.
* Consider the risk of outbreaks in schools.
* Don't platform minimizers.
@alexandrite113 Their "right" to :squints at paper: "not care about their child's right to live in safety and comfort" is not the same thing as a right to live. I'm so sorry :(
