I am a retired teacher librarian. A Sk Rider fan. I am outspoken about politics, the environment, and social justice. I am also covid conscious.

Immunology at large was browbeaten into believing covid would become a harmless common cold virus in its endemic phase

It won’t and it hasn’t

Remember all those protesters yelling freedom. Where are they now? The freedom to read is important in a democracy. I would rather children get information on sex from a well told story than from the internet.

CORRECTION.

The UCP has not banned just over 100 books from Edmonton Schools.

If this list is accurate, they have banned over 200.

Here is the list we have been provided.

While the Alberta UCP is banning books like "The Handmaid's Tale" they are promoting socials where 25 year old men can "hangout" with 14 year old girls for tons of fun. #Ableg

[Margaret E Atwood @MargaretAtwood]

Hi kids .. #HandmaidsTale (the book not the series!) has just been banned in #Edmonton…don’t read it, your hair will catch on fire! Get one now before they have public book burnings of it.

@drseanmullen I am so sorry. It happened to me too while spending 2 months in San Diego winter of 2024. I slept in a 2nd bedroom window wide open used the spare bathroom. Both ore a N95 in common area. Positive for 18 days due to Paxlovid rebound. My husband did not get it. Good luck!

COVID will be recognised as the GREATEST CARDIAC RISK FACTOR EVER.
Greater than smoking and hypertension COMBINED.
Blood vessel inflammation causing premature narrowing and thrombosis ages organs by decades.
I’ve posted loads on this on my timeline.👇

@lesiawaschuk @DisabledDoctor Selfishness. That's the word I was looking for.

[Chris M🇺🇦🇨🇦 @willowreader]

@DisabledDoctor I feel this. I too wear masks. I am tired of explaining why even to family. The lack of empathy and understanding from your friends is just sad. I am so sorry 😞

"So cool" is how an anti-vax mass infection profiteer describes getting measles during a propaganda campaign & then importing the virus to a susceptible community.

Unethical and morally indefensible is how I describe risking kids' lives by spreading a preventable disease.

[Jon Douglas @atranscendedman]

Despite centuries of postviral illness from influenza to long COVID, science and policy still overlook these chronic conditions, leaving millions like Leticia de Souza Soares without adequate care or recognition.

This is targeted harassment designed to intimidate a reporter with the intention to deprive the public of access to the truth. It is an attack on not just the free press, but democracy. #AbLeg

Using a next-generation molecular mapping technology called Visium HD spatial transcriptomics, researchers from Japan provided the world's first high-resolution spatial gene expression analysis of the epipharynx in patients with longCOVID. 2/

@KellyMMeiners @bmj_latest As soon as I read they told you to exercise my heart sank. Thanks for posting about your experience. I am continually telling people recovering from Covid to rest and not exercise. Those that are very active mostly won't listen. The message needs to get out there. Feel better!!

@AlexCurran95 Thank you! I missed this one at the time.

[Nathalie Ventilation @VentiloAngel]

The cases of transmission from dental workers to their clients are largely underestimated. Back in 2020, in Quebec, it was frequently claimed that there had been no outbreaks in dental offices, even though I had been sick for six months from an infection contracted while working in a dental clinic. There was an outbreak in the clinic, with at least four people affected, including myself. I later learned that there were other cases in another clinics, but officially, authorities report that nothing happened. This is false and impossible.

My presentation with @DavidJoffe64 on COVID's impacts on the brain is already the most watched video on the @TheWHN platform 🤯! Thank you to everyone who supports our research❤️! We are now writing a physician's guide for #NeuroCovid #LongCovid 🧠🔬
