I also struggle w the cognitive dissonance cardiovascular health researchers/clinicians have, where “viruses impact on cvd rates” and “do no harm” is acceptable but “covid impacts on cvd rates” and “our duty of care includes not contributing to the burden of disease from covid” doesn’t register

If I am asking people to disclose their cardiovascular risks to me, to share of their own health and health experiences, I cannot simultaneously expose them to a possible additional cardiovascular risk, just because the state has told us it doesn’t matter.

Did you hear that the number of autocracies has risen from 88 to 91 in one year, and fewer than 12% of people worldwide now live in liberal democracies
Autocracies outnumber democracies for the first time in 20 years: V-Dem
The 2025 V-Dem report finds that 45 countries are affected by autocratization and 19 are in episodes of democratization.
