“I have an ominous feeling that this flu season will be worse than the last strictly on the basis of our dysfunctional capabilities.” >> of course, public health won’t be bothered saving people’s lives until a bunch have died

Cora Ella Hind travelled 10,000 kilometres every year to survey crops in Western Canada.
She was so good at her predictions, farmers called her the Oracle of Wheat.
To them, she was the most trusted voice in agriculture.
This is the story of her fascinating life.

In February last year, BC’s Ministry of Forests wrote a letter telling CN rail it believed the company played a role in the fire that destroyed Lytton. It intended to seek costs.

Six weeks later, it reversed course and closed its file.

100%. I work in a very well resourced, well staffed ICU and we are still hemorrhaging nurses. It’s really obvious to anyone paying attention that ignoring Long Covid (when it is common among nurses!) is making everything so much worse. Acknowledging reality is the only way through this.

This barely made headlines because the ‘free’ press is afraid of Trump
2/ The state of the world feels unrecognizable. We’re so numb to violence that hundreds of bullets hitting a federal building barely made headlines. This isn’t normal. We’re living in constant cognitive dissonance—powerless, grieving, and forced to carry on as if the world hasn’t changed.

I cannot emphasize enough that the playbook being used against mRNA vaccines (and vaccines in general) is IDENTICAL to the playbook used to restrict voting rights after the 2020 election: actively sow public distrust, then cite the distrust you sowed as an independent reason for your desired policy

As a vaccine for broad public use, mRNA technology has failed to earn the public’s trust.

UK: What if everyone had masked up? Analysis of app data has the answer:
"Respirators would have dropped the rate of COVID transmission by an estimated factor of 9, compared with 0.6 for surgical masks. A factor of 9 is enough to put SARS-COV-2 into exponential decay!

Modelling study based on almost 250,000 positive COVID-19 tests in the United Kingdom shows that universal masking could have cut transmission markedly.

It's insulting that we have a legal system that doesn't understand how the human brain behaves during a traumatic event.

And we should *all* be concerned by the chilling effect because it means people aren't coming forward which means we're not apprehending people who are committing profound harm.

I hope everyone enjoys Wave 11 of Covid. Anyone who says, “during the pandemic” should be interrupted immediately mid-sentence wherever they are as it’s 💯 disinformation.

- Widespread geo spread
- Sustained p2p transmission
- Large-scale impact

Wanting to forget = intentional communication error

I guess the media needs it to be spelled out but the core principle of RFKj wellness fascism is that if you get sick it’s your fault, you could have avoided it by using the right “supplements” and working out, so you might as well die because you’re of no use
