It is very easy to call your representatives’ offices. They have to log your calls and the call numbers are meaningful. You don’t even have to try to convince anyone; just call and tell them your concerns. They are there to represent you. Let them know what that means. www.usa.gov/elected-offi...

What would I do? Senate, House, DNC & Dem Govs EACH need to have a Rapid React WarRoom staffed 24/7/365. They need to have a rotating Senator, Rep, & Gov on call all times to post video, TikTok, statements & do interviews. Pressers are old, tired & mostly useless.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

In lieu of the “arctic blast” hitting us later this evening, here’s the coldest photo I’ve taken 😂
I was on the way to Jackson Hole to catch the season opening of the tram and stopped at this overlook on the way. The car was reading -18° when I stepped out ❄️

Mirroring others in the replies, as a virologist, I also encourage you to start VERY gently (walking/slow swimming, no cardio) post COVID. If you find your heart rate spiking quickly and staying there even with low exertion, STOP. COVID can damage your heart and energy production systems, leading

The damage would likely be immeasurable. This is the stuff of nightmares.
Out of all the Trump nominees, RFK Jr. may pose the most significant risk to this country.
While Kash Patel, as FBI Director, would be dangerous to the free press, RFK Jr., as HHS Secretary, would be dangerous to the lives of everyone in the U.S.

‘We learned the hard way’: Samoa remembers a deadly measles outbreak and a visit from RFK Jr
A few months before the outbreak in 2019, Kennedy travelled to Samoa and met with anti-vaccine figures, contributing to what health experts claim was a ‘significant disinformation campaign’

brutal pre-vax life was for little kids. There's a reason we developed all these vaccines in the first place! Sadly the children will pay for the parents' folly.

I think it may take a decade to a generation for the effects to become visible (i.e. widespread child disability/death due to illness) but then vax rates will jump back once people realize the horror. Notice how most-vaxxers come from developed and well-vaccinated places? They've lost sight of how

Republicans already died at greater rates of COVID post-vaccine availability than democrats because a lower proportion got the vaccines.
I keep wondering what would happen in a full-blown high-mortality H5N1 epidemic. Would they wise up re: masks and vaccines or hold the line and perish?

“It started as a respiratory illness – or so everyone thought. But it quickly became apparent that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, was so much more”
We desperately need more reporting like this making it crystal clear that Covid is not “just” a respiratory virus.

How the virus behind COVID-19 can harm your blood vessels and your heart
Researchers are zeroing in on the ways SARS-CoV-2 damages and persists inside blood vessels, raising the risk for heart attacks and strokes years after an initial infection.
