"Acute infection should no longer be treated as a short-lived episode with only temporary consequences. It can be an origin point for long-term chronic disease, a modifier of chronic illness and a possible accelerator of biological ageing"

Canada has a long history of government intervention in labour disputes. But the proposed change marks an escalation in the erosion of labour rights that has been underway since the 1970s. #canlab

@safe_breathe @airspothealth When I had to return to teaching in-person in Sept. 2020, before vaccines and with no mask mandate, I read all I could about how Covid was transmitted. I quickly learned that it was airborne. I bought N95s, a HEPA & a CO2 monitor and have used them ever since! #CovidIsAirborne

Seeing the anti-Indigenous hysteria being fomented by the right wing is like watching footage from the integration of Black people into US public schools in the 1960s. #BCPoli

For the billionth time:

Most of the 'symptoms' of an infection (fever cough tiredness etc) are your body fighting the infection.

The later symptoms are the work of the actual pathogen… and they're the ones that your body is trying to prevent.

Air Canada workers are striking against unpaid work. They are defying Carney's anti-democratic back to work order in the process. Workers have the power! #aircanadastrike

@annesmithmcc @Simonantiwoke @Bookhermit1 @PutrinoLab I respectfully would say that anyone with an anti-woke avatar is unlikely to be able or willing to admit they are wrong about science. After all, the opposite of woke is asleep, no?

This is very bad, folks. This is the strain of bird flu we have been most worried about.

[Lazarus Long @LazarusLong13]

This is a very big deal. D1.1 now in cattle.

D1.1 has put 100% of the people it has infected into the hospital - and killed 50%.**

BC teen had to be intubated on ECMO - despite age and no preconditions.

Louisiana man died in the hospital.

Today, for-profit child care operators are protesting Ontario’s funding model under CWELCC.

They say it’s about flexibility, but what does that mean?
❓flexibility to raise parent fees?
❓flexibility to make profits?

That’s not the “flexibility” I want for my daughter.

It's beginning to happen. A big international union divesting It's pension funds from the genocidal and apartheid state of Israel. Will Canadian unions follow the example of the international Painters Union and divest their pension plans from Israel.
