Two inhaled covid vaccines have been approved—but we don’t know yet how good they are
New covid vaccines inhaled through the nose and mouth could help prevent people from becoming infected or passing on the virus—but questions remain.

Richard Marles just loves his private jets - so befitting a man of his importance. After a secrecy blanket was wrapped over these taxpayer funded flights, he’s been free to indulge with no scrutiny. Except the ‘security risk’ excuse has failed in the face of #FOI. #auspol

I fell off a ladder in August. The bill for the 1.7 mile ambulance ride is $4387.31.
Our $4500 per MONTH Cigna insurance won’t pay more than $600, because the ambulance is out of network.
There are no in-network ambulances in our county, and I was unconscious when it was called.

A recent scientific paper compared long-term mortality by vaccination status.
I noticed that Table 2 drew a lot of attention, but was actually included in the paper as a static image. So I built a quick dataviz project to explore.

In 1811-12, the Luddites attempted to resist some of the first waves of machine-industrialisation. They were crushed.
20 years later "pauper apprentices" (= orphan children) were being SOLD to factory-owners as cheap labour.

NEWS: We’re delighted to announce that Wolverhampton School of Art (1966-70) has just been Grade II listed!
The decision saves the brutalist building from a proposed demolition; it follows a listing application by C20 and a vigorous local campaign led by artists, staff and students at the school.
