Is COVlD going away or...
Are we about to get slammed by the BA.3.2 variant?

1. Most people don't always act according to the best scientific evidence, but rather according to habit, convenience, social pressure, political messages, or risk perception. History is full of cases where the majority was wrong at first and a minority was right.

Reminder that Dr. Fauci said to have COVID under any kind of control we would need to have less than 10k infections daily.

Our “low” now is 200-300k daily. Nearly on par with what we used to consider “high” and trigger enforced masking and distancing.

It’s not over.

Doubling ventilation doubled cognitive performance.

Doubled.

Teachers, let’s open all the windows!!!!!!

(Just remember to close them at the end of the day so the custodian will still be your friend).

He resigned from the U.N. and ended his diplomatic career to leak the fact that they’re preparing for a nuclear weapon to bomb Iran. We’re not doing enough to stop this.

[Mike Hoerger, PhD MSCR MBA @michael_hoerger]

The WHO told the world 6 years ago today that "COVID-19 is NOT airborne."

This is disinformation. They have not deleted the post and have not apologized for the tens of millions of lives lost and hundreds of millions of people now with #LongCOVID because of their misguidance.

Concerned about the Covid variant headlines?

One of the early warning signs of a wave is when you see 2 out of 3 states w/increasing transmission, even small increases. It's one of several features added to the PMC 3.0 forecasting model to time the rise/fall of summer waves.

If your safety protocol requires the most vulnerable person in the room to take all the risk,
it’s not medicine—it’s abandonment.

[Dr. Jennifer Irwin @drjenirwin]

Science takes ~17 years to reach clinical practice.

The science in 2026 is clear: we don’t have another decade to wait on SARS-CoV-2.

If you’re doing what you can to avoid (re)infection, your behaviour is 100% aligned with best current available evidence.

[Muting/Blocking = Self Care @QueeringPsych]

Also remember that the COVID vaccines are only meant to prevent hospitalization and death

You can still:
- get infected,
- pass COVID to someone else, & - get long COVID symptoms

even if you are vaccinated (esp if your last booster was 3-5 years ago)

We need clean air.

[Ricky the Covid Conscious Music Therapist @notamanticore]

@o_bel_ Congratulations!!!

[Mike Hoerger, PhD MSCR MBA @michael_hoerger]

Various politicians and organizations have ended "emergency phase" support for the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, the WHO has affirmed that we are still in a pandemic. They should affirm this more frequently.

We need a place for masking teens and adults to connect with employers/paid work opportunities.

With everything else even close to equal, I’m picking the masked candidate every time.

But the discrimination out there is real, and people need paid work.

[Mike Hoerger, PhD MSCR MBA @michael_hoerger]

My best career advice is to reduce your lifetime number of cumulative SARS-CoV-2 infections.
