Even if tons of food goes in, a lot of people are still going to die.

Once malnutrition and famine conditions set in, the body adapts to consuming its own muscles and fat.

If you give carbs too quickly, insulin gets secreted, crazy electrolyte shifts happen, and hearts just stop.

June 6th update:

A slight uptick this week. This is probably the lowest it'll be nationally for a few months, as XFG and "Nimbus" are forecasted to drive a summer wave.

🔸167,000 new infections/day
🔸~1 in 201 currently infected
🔸~1 in 502 are reasonably infectious

Yunlong Cao and his team one again knocked it out of the park. This lab study shows:

➡️XFG has good immune evasion, poor ACE binding

➡️NB.1.8.1 has weaker immune evasion but better binding

Very interesting set we have here.

"We are speaking on behalf of hundreds of NIH staff who are standing up together to say: WE DISSENT.

I am so scared about doing this but I am trying to be brave for my kids because it's only gonna get harder to speak up."

Thank you to Dr. Jenna Norton and NIH scientists for your courage!

Pluto never gave up:)

MAKARY: 88 percent of American kids, their parents have said no to the covid shot last season. So the vast majority of Americans are saying no.

BRENNAN: I don't want to crowdsource my health guidance. You don't go with popularity, you go with data.

Meet "Nimbus", aka SARS-CoV-2 variant NB.1.8.1.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd.
It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty.

I don't think anyone outside of universities, pharma and biotech, independent research institutions have any idea of what is happening right now. If you haven't sounded the alarm among your friends, family and colleagues, now is the time to do it.

If you put two NYT stories together you do get “man allegedly completely strung out on drugs uses the US government to kill 300,000 people”

The new COVID vaccination recommendations are being made by a small coterie of people least qualified to make them, while cutting out the experts to push their own views forward, regardless of what the science says. My latest for The Nation. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Journalists writing on Vinay Prasad, I strongly encourage you to show videos of him in his own words to your readers.

I have a decent collection and can help you curate.

Let your readers see who he really is.

Here's the latest variant picture with a global scope.

XEC.* variants have been declining slightly, while LP.8.1.* variants grew steadily to around 18%.

Your friendly reminder that this tweet from the WHO is still up with no corrections.

a haunting front page, and rightfully so: we should be haunted by this. www.nytimes.com/live/2024/11...

Journalists, Dr. Jay Bhattachayra wanted to maximize infections in unvaccinated people under 70 or so, because he thought this would lead to herd immunity in 3-6 months.

Not telling this to readers is to misinform them.

Plenty more examples are available.

18 Democratic US Senators voted to block offensive weapon sales to Israel.

Dick Durbin, the second-highest-ranking Democrat in the US Senate, voted to block the sales of three specific offensive weapons.
