I am a NIH RECOVER Patient Rep. Something that comes up frequently is the question of how to inform doctors so they will both take precautions and inform patients. Do you have any suggestions for how to get doctors to act on the knowledge of airborne pathogens?

Like...this is the biggest corruption scandal the NIH has experienced in its entire history and its not even close. Half of a BILLION dollars to a single project as a result of political spoils. That's the equivalent of several hundred R01s.

DHS just lies constantly but this time they let the truth slip. DHS will arrest you if you are Hispanic PLUS literally any other thing that they think is correlated statistically with being here illegally; occupation, English speaking ability, the neighborhood, etc. It is sick.

DHS has effectively reinterpreted (also illegally) “reasonable suspicion” as racial profiling, so now here it is making a statement that it uses racial profiling to arrest and cuff people, even Americans abcnews.go.com/amp/US/wireS...

I used to lose 6-8 weeks out of every year to respiratory viruses. As a massage therapist, I already can’t handle more than part time but losing gigs around the holidays and Valentines really, truly hurts my annual take home. Since masking, I’ve lost zero days to being sick. None. Anxiety? Money!

I keep thinking that one day, I’ll turn all those old cloth masks into something cool like this. I’m impressed that you did!
