Cancer patients who got a COVID shot lived significantly longer.

No, that’s not a typo.

A new study found that a simple mRNA vaccine - originally made for COVID - nearly doubled survival in patients with advanced lung and skin cancer.

Let’s break it down 👇 🧵 1/

As a former researcher, I’ve been geeking out with the scientists for our @lululemon FURTHER initiative 🤓👍! With a dearth of women-focused studies, it’s exciting to be part of and contribute to our understanding of women endurance athletes 💃.

The silent reservoir?

SARS-CoV-2 may be hiding in middle ear!

In a new study, those diagnosed with otitis media with effusion (OME) after COVID-19, 12.0 % of middle ear effusion samples tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, indicating a potential risk of recurrence. 1/

COPIED FROM JOE BECIGNEUL: THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO TICK SOME PEOPLE OFF, AND I HOPE IT DOES. BUT I’M GOING TO KEEP ON SHARING IT AND SAYING IT. AND ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT A SWIFTIE, BUT I AM A HUMAN BEING, A DAD AND, A MONSTROUS FOOTBALL FAN.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Urging people to be positive doesn’t boost their resilience. It denies their reality.

When times are tough, we don’t need good vibes only. We need a hand to keep us steady through all the vibrations.

Strength doesn’t come from forced smiles. It comes from feeling supported.

[Fascinating @fasc1nate]

At 3 a.m. one night in 1988, Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwo'ole called a local studio and said he needed to record something immediately.

He pleaded with the engineer: "Please, can I come in? I have an idea."

Kamakawiwo'ole recorded the iconic version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" in one take, which would soon touch countless people across the globe.
