I have not been enjoying my time here as much as I once did. Turns out I'm spending a lot more time on Threads these days. You can find me there @/ariatheone.

President Jimmy Carter knows the truth

"I actually was the victim of a war crime myself because the Israelis dropped a GPS-guided bomb on the house where a British charity medical team was staying. They had our GPS coordinates, they knew who we were, and they knew where we were. They knew where we were every second of the day because we coordinated with the IDF, so this was a deliberate attempt to assassinate a British medical team in order to dissuade any medical teams coming from abroad."

be impossible. It's not. Just need to take airborne infection protocols and twist them to be practical, cheap, easy - and universal.

And those protocols start with respirators.

Thank you again!

studies, and my DMs are open. I can easily make the case for masking.

I am a true NoVid - part of a community that has figured out how to stay uninfected. Even if C0Vid comes home with a family member. Staying uninfected in the home would seem to be

The single most efficacious way to avoid Covid is to wear a respirator.

Whether a doctor or a member of the public. I wrote this thread for a Murdoch/Koch think-tank that is trying to ban all masks - it should convince you.

If not, I have more

If you are completely on board with respirators for the public?

You can ignore the rest of this thread - and thank you again.

If not, please read on.

[Lazarus Long @LazarusLong13]

I do have to ask a favor in the future? Since asymptomatic transmission makes up 58% of transmission, and respirators/N95s work better than masks?

And mentioning masks at the very end of the article will not reach as many people?

Can you mention respirators at the very top?

[Lazarus Long @LazarusLong13]

“kind of like playing COVID roulette.”

Thank you both, very much!

Seeing someone lay out that Covid can be "up to the point of going into the hospital" miserable? So helpful from a public health perspective.

(The CDC should be doing that messaging.)

Thank you @ronlin for taking the time to lay out that drumbeat. Truly, thank you!

Put your masks back on if you stopped.

It doesn't have to be a big deal.

You can just do it.

Really.

The problem is that when airlines have a very poor attitude towards those with severe nut allergies, their staff simply don't care enough to check whether a meal contains nuts or not

They rapidly cut all public health down until it was just vaccines, and then cut that too. Biden's COVID policy has been a complete failure. He did what Trump wanted to do, but because of a (D) after his name on the ballot, liberals enthusiastically supported it. Disgusting.

Them: "If Covid were damaging people's abilities to fight other infections then we'd see a huge rise in illnesses right across the board"

The Other Infections: <see picture>

Them: "No, not like that"

After reintroducing polio in Gaza after it had been eradicated, the Israeli military is now rolling out a polio vaccine booster programme. But not for Gazans. For the soldiers killing Gazans. This is exactly what colonial extermination looks like

FYI The article mentions a possible health exception. I urge everyone to treat this with great skepticism. The bill language has not been revealed yet. And there are many problems with health exceptions (see below). No kind of mask ban is acceptable.
