Only 1/3 of countries still adjust their clocks. In 2017, a MA commission designed an end to Daylight Saving Time. Benefits to health, labor, commerce, energy, reduced traffic fatalities and crime would outweigh small costs. Let's do it already. https://t.co/FaPzkDLznh #mapoli
I've read a lot about climate and done a lot to reduce emissions. Still, somehow I missed this: "Oceans are warming at the same rate as if five Hiroshima bombs were dropped in every second [for the last 25 years]" https://t.co/aiRng1d07F
Here's the original paper. "All the serum samples efficiently neutralized USA-WA1/2020 and all the viruses with variant spikes. Almost all of them did so at titers higher than 1:40." https://t.co/ckGjE8yNIG
@not_amazn_alexa I think this article needs to be corrected. The PRNT50 is not the same as efficacy. Even if it were, it's not clear how you arrived at "12.4 times less effective." https://t.co/qy4jSld57H
In "MA Info for Voters 2020 Ballot Questions," the "Coalition for Safe and Secure Data" opposes Question 1 saying you could die from domestic violence if you support it(?!) According to OCPF, coalition is $26 million of auto manufacturers. https://t.co/J7quCV79gp #YESon1#mapoli
We need @yeson2rcv. The 4th district results are a great example why. In the final tally between @JakeAuch & @jessemermell, the preference of 56.5% of voters was not taken into account. #mapoli

The MassLandlords Board of Directors have unanimously endorsed @VoterChoiceMA's Ranked Choice Voting ballot initiative for Fall 2020. This is a first step on the road to structural reform in housing policy. Please sign now: https://t.co/PbGHBsQpzd #mapoli
May 22 study of 96,032 COVID-19 patients across 671 hospitals on 6 continents shows chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine w/ or w/o macrolide more deadly than nothing, 99.9% sure https://t.co/5XpbIs7tGr FYI @realDonaldTrump
"The Risks - Know Them - Avoid Them". Good detail on droplet counts and the danger of indoor spaces with unmasked, asymptomatic carriers. https://t.co/Zyc2vLnQVK via @umassd
Example of safer, clearer, better: "Every person on public ways, in public parks, or on public transportation must have their nose and mouth covered at all times. No eating, drinking, or smoking here." Repeat and clarify for offices, in-office break rooms, retail, etc. #mapoli
"All residents must continue to wear a face covering in public when social distancing is not possible" is unhelpfully unclear, incomplete. Re: "Baker-Polito Administration Initiates Transition to First Phase of Four-Phase Approach" https://t.co/UDrPlk5cCh
"Real-time tracking of self-reported symptoms to predict potential COVID-19" Loss of smell and taste can be primary predictors in symptom self-checks such as are being required by @cicnow https://t.co/KQoo9Zanro
" 'A disastrous situation': mountains of food wasted as coronavirus scrambles supply chain". Sounds like we all need to be buying more milk and produce, less shelf-stable. https://t.co/yuMso6qeyj @susie_c
