I survived the fifth extinction, but I'm worried about the sixth. Dinosaurs belong in parks, not politics! Follow me for science, humor, progressive stuff.

@BadLegalTakes Well, I didn't expect this sort of Spanish Inquisition!

They're even worse than nanobots... They're minibots!

@BadMedicalTakes TFW you Realize...

@JoelKatz @BadLegalTakes You don't expect Strict Constipatutionalists(TM) to read that far, do you?

@BadVaccineTakes Except maybe that time potentially sick people were held on boats for forty days before being allowed ashore. They made up a word for it. Now what was it...?

@BadMedicalTakes Pro tip: AZ doesn't protect you from Ebola.

@FAB1150 @BadMedicalTakes Throw out the blob, mix it again, throw out the baking soda, then add water. It's Lazyopathy! (patent pending)

@BarbLarochelle @CaulfieldTim @UAlberta Higher ed will be cut by the UCP no matter what they do, and if the U of A believes any backroom promise to the contrary, they haven't been paying attention.

20-somethings may have a low incidence of severe disease, but they have the highest incidence of cases.

This young man wasn't the first, and he won't be the last. Not by a long shot.

GET VACCINATED

@MaddowBlog @donwinslow My best friends daughters boyfriend of 10 years...died today. 29 healthy. No shots. It destroyed his lungs, then stopped his heart, then after resuscitation...he was on a ventilator til all his systems failed.

Biggest difference:

WE can do it!

vs.

Don't let THEM do it!

A mask would interfere with that kind of 'coughing.'

@mcsassymd Most valuable lesson I learned as a rider: Make yourself as visible as possible, then assume no one will see you.

If someone swallows a tiny battery, it can quickly do serious damage. Call 911 immediately!

[Tom Rex 🏳️‍🌈 @TheRealTomRex]

BUT it doesn't eliminate the need for other precautions. 90% less transmission still leaves 10%.

Would you rely on a car that only started 9 times out of 10? No; you'd have a bike or a bus pass just in case.

Keep masking, keep your distance, and keep washing!

@VICE (& all media):

STOP CITING SINGLE DOSE as if it means anything significant. Delta has thrown it out the window. Fully immunized is the significant metric.
