mRNA vaccines are under threat—could cancer vaccines be the answer?
The safety of mRNA vaccines, hailed as a saviour in the covid-19 pandemic, has been called into question by the US administration. Yet amid the defunding and hostile public opinion, Chris Baraniuk fin...

Using antivirals for the flu reduces the severity of the case and reduces your risk of hospitalization or death, it lowers your viral load so you’re spreading less of the virus to those around you, and some antivirals also reduce the risk of other complications www.theatlantic.com/health/2026/...

Bay Area: just a reminder if you feel sick, test for Covid and the flu. While Covid levels are lower right now, flu and RSV are very high! And if it’s confirmed to be the flu you can use Xofluza or Tamiflu to reduce the risk of hospitalization or household viral spread.

The interpretations are (1) thuggish and very stupid ICE agents stole the phone and tried to sell it or (2) thuggish ICE agents kidnapped and brutalized the kid and threw his phone out the window or dumped it in the gutter, laughing, and someone else found it and tried to sell it.
Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center.

It’s not really cringe for Christian influences attribute unlikely statements to their young kids. They view their kids as only extensions of their own ego as opposed to autonomous human beings, so it’s no different than a figure of speech like “I am tempted to say” or something.
