🧵 Excerpts from the 2006 report of Canada's SARS Commission. An inquiry into the mismanagement of SARS-CoV-1, it was the most essential read for any competent IPC / Public Health professional attempting to avoid mismanaging SARS-COV-2.

So…mostly ignored.

It's paywalled, so subscribe or visit a library. I'll quote very selectively.

To All ABR Members:

We are a Political TPA, and as a Lethbridge election has been called, we, the board, are not allowed to advertise against the UCP until it’s over.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

We are a non-partisan grassroots movement listening to Albertans of all political stripes who are worried about the damage the UCP is doing to Alberta. We want to do something about it.

My great-grandmother's nephew, Frederick Banting, and his colleagues also deliberately refused to sell the patent for millions because of that belief. But capitalism f-ed it up in the end.
When insulin was first patented in 1923, the discoverers declined to put their names on it as they felt that insulin belonged to the public.

101 years later, insulin is inaccessible to thousands of Americans because of price gouging by near-monopoly private insurance corporations and their PBMs.
BREAKING: CVS Health, UnitedHealth Group and Cigna are suing the Federal Trade Commission, claiming that the agency going after drug middlemen over high insulin prices is unconstitutional.

There's something I need people to understand.

The studio that made this released some numbers. They had to produce 85 minutes of footage to find 15 usable seconds for this ad.

The machine that creates moving images out of nothing has a failure rate of 340:1 and the best 15 seconds... is this.

Look, I'm not suggesting the EPS need new uniforms, but if the brownshirts bloody fit...
Nothing to see here.

Just my UCP taking more steps to control municipal police forces to ensure we don't have political upheavals as we move towards authoritarianism. That's all.

For my son-in-law Trevor Fenton, who served in the Canadian Armed Forces, and all who came before him. These are perilous times. What we call the alt-right is morphing into authoritarianism before our eyes. We may yet be called upon to again sacrifice for democracy.

I'm not afraid of dying of COVID--dying is the best-case scenario. I'm afraid to get sick and have to keep living in this capitalist, ableist, eugenicist hellscape. My body; their choice.

Great piece in the Star from @nicktsergas.bsky.social, outlining how corporate pharmacy chains are juicing patients & even their own pharmacists, for cash.

Pharmacists say power to prescribe often comes with pressure to prescribe, and generate profits
Many pharmacists welcome an expanded role but concerns about the effects of corporate quotas on their work are common.
