So, to those who say "masks don't work", cite the flawed Cochrane report, insist upon an unfeasible RCT, accuse folks of panic, and undermine public health on social and mainstream media during a flu/RSV epidemic...

1. Seasonal viruses may be "normal", but they do immense harm.

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE.

If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease!

Please watch this clip. PLEASE WATCH - it's just 27 seconds.

The canary is dead, folks; all the canaries. This is *exactly* what happened in Germany. These were the first folks to go, & when no one blinked, guess what happened next.

Don't say it won't happen. They're *broadcasting* their plans.

This emergency department data demonstrated the disproportionate toll of the summer wave on very young children, at a time the Trump administration says they don’t need updated vaccines.
The CDC quietly neutered the best Covid data on the planet yesterday. ED data visualization has been stripped of age stratification, and state-by-state trends.

ED data has been far better for state by state trends than WW. Poof.

The truth is most people don’t give a shit about the rule of law, or due process, or laws of war, or freedom of unpopular speech or unpopular religion. Just about every modern civilizational advancement out of barbarism gets only occasional lip service and is unpopular in particular instances.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Remember: Lindsey Boylan doesn’t just offer firsthand knowledge of how reprehensible Andrew Cuomo was PERSONALLY as governor. She also has the receipts testifying to his awfulness in a PROFESSIONAL capacity.
I was this man’s business staffer. He knows nothing about business and he’s actually rather stupid about the private sector altogether.

All he knows is how to curry favor with private sector leaders to fund his campaigns.

By “pro-corporate” he means pro grift.
Thankfully voters love big corporations right now. This will be a very popular message.

1. I've said exactly this for quite some time. Expanding on Adrian's @sillyputty78.bsky.social point on X / Twitter here, Covid-19 has three distinct characteristics as a disease that enables it to be denied at a societal level.

Vinay Prasad overrode the recommendations of a panel of scientists who said that 2025-2026 COVID19 vaccines should be recommended for everyone over the age of 12 years.

COVID19 remains a serious public health threat. He will get people killed. He doesn’t care. His ego wins, always.
