Brilliant. Finally an honest, easy to understand message about airborne viral transmission and how to prevent it. And proper respirators, instead of baggy blue paper masks!
An airborne virus is a virus that can infect other people through unseen particles in the air, sometimes for hours after the sick person has left the area! Masks and clean, ventilated air can reduce the risk of getting sick from airborne viruses or infecting others.

20% off FlowFlex COVlD tests at Pharmalynk.
It's the test I trust and the company I've ordered from consistently the past 2 years. Better validity and lower cost than other rapid antigen tests.
I do not receive any revenue from any product or company, just a good deal.

The regime deported an Army veteran.
Godfrey Wade has been deported to Jamaica.
He’s a US Army veteran who served for 8 years.
He won multiple awards.
He showed up for America, and America showed him the door.
This is not how you honour a veteran’s sacrifice.
It’s shameful.

AI already causing dire problems. We've got to stop it.
Hey, remember that time I said that pointing out that AI is giving bad data to ICE is missing the point because ICE doesn't actually care if the data is good? Check out how right I am.
NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.

Hunting brown children to snatch their parents is inhuman. We need to do something very harsh about our racism problem. I wish I had ideas.
Everything you’re hearing from the Trump administration is a lie. Today was one of the most active days in Northeast since the entire Operation Metro Surge began.
Nothing is changing on the ground in Minneapolis, no matter what headlines Trump and Homan try to create.

Killing kids used to be unpopular in the USA. Now it's full throttle eugenics. Infant mortality. Forced illness-associated disability. Discouraging life saving vaccines. Guns everywhere. It's like we're looking for ways to kill them. But have more babies.

A big call out and thanx to the Swedish
"Infectionists" 🔊🔊
At some point they ought to be called to account, perhaps?
Sadly, they are but the canary in everyone's coalmine. No country will be left behind in the race to chronic diseases and disabling Long C-19

Mortality in Sweden:
The good news: deaths are declining in most age groups >=15. At the same time, causes of death that started rising after 2019 are becoming increasingly dominant across all age groups <15. Most affected are 5-9 and 10-14 year olds.

Excellent, @jbpritzker.bsky.social ! Now adopt indoor air quality standards to stop transmission of viral illnesses in schools. Other countries can do it, so can we.
While Donald Trump and RFK Jr. push conspiracy theories over science, my administration is forging a path that puts our people first.

ICE and DHS do not follow court orders.
JUST IN: A federal judge has barred ICE and DHS from using taxpayer information provided by the IRS.
Judge Talwani says that DHS' view that noncitizens lack 4th amendment rights — combined with ICE use of administrative warrants — is a recipe for abuse.

Handy skill. These dogs should inspect homes before new owners move in.
This is Zephyr. He is a professionally trained bed bug detector. When he recognizes the scent of live bed bugs, he gives an alert by sitting and smiling exuberantly at his handler. We're pretty sure no one has ever been more excited to find bed bugs in their life. 13/10 (TT: emmercrew)

Schools are super spreader centers.
Important paper. Schools are high-risk environments for respiratory disease transmission MAINLY because classrooms are underventilated. This problem has a workable solution - it just needs political will. Air quality is as important as water quality for public health. MT @martinmckee.bsky.social
Our paper modelling transmission risk in schools is published in Nature Communications. **The relative contribution of close-proximity contacts, shared classroom exposure and indoor air quality to respiratory virus transmission in schools** doi.org/10.1038/s414...
