I appreciate Andrew Nikiforuk at @TheTyee for highlighting the continuing science of COVID and the importance of prevention.
The virus keeps reshaping health and society — we can still choose to act wisely.

Comparing the COVID-19 Vaccines: How Are They Different?
In its 6th year, COVID-19 continues to spread, driven by Omicron subvariants. Updated vaccines, revised yearly since 2022, are still expected to protect well against severe illness, hospitalisation, and death, even with new strains.

The toppled HHS under Kennedy will do nothing to stop measles outbreaks. In fact, you should realize they WANT you to be infected by measles.
Here is a preview of what's to come--from the "Chief Science Officer" (CSO) of Kennedy's anti-vax organization Children's Health Defense (CHD). (1/)

Far-UVC light (222 nm) kills airborne bacteria in indoor spaces, reducing pathogens by up to 99.5%—even with low ventilation. Tested at room scale, it works fast & effectively. A game-changer for infection control in schools, hospitals, offices. Let’s deploy this tech!

Wait. What if it's not lockdowns from 5 years ago and a lack of infections causing "immunity debt", but actually repeated infection with a virus with known immunological, cardiovascular, neurological, and many other effects?!?

Research indicates that H5N1 vaccines developed in the mid-2000s may still be effective against more recent variants of the virus.
