Elon Musk’s new pay package would feed all forty million Americans on SNAP for the next ten years. He wouldn’t notice the difference but the country would.

Always reactivation.
Evidence for:
Reactivation of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV)
Reactivation of latent Tuberculosis (LTBI)
Reactivation of dormant cancer cells.
The downstream negative population health effects of unmitigated SARS-CoV-2 transmission are undeniable now.

If you’re not going to clean the air to prevent kids from becoming diseased (which is only going to increase with measles on its comeback tour because Lucifer and his followers have annihilated public health & mandatory vaccine schedules), then …wear a mask.

There's still time to comment on the major revision to the respirator standard. It can be as simple as comments like "I support this section" and in the suggested changes "No changes needed".
There *will* be others trying to remove its protections!

New edition of CSA Standard for Selection, use, and care of respirators is under public comment. Please visit publicreview.csa.ca/Home/Details... and offer your comments. Of particular interest is section 9, Healthcare. Surgical masks aren't protection, and much more.

I really think, the experience of COVID really fucked us up in ways we still don't fully understand. It was then that deaths of thousands and millions became normalized, background - and the urge to return to a sense of normalcy trumped all other concerns.

Rare good news. But summer razor blade 🪒 sounds awful, so mask up
Good news: the very low current levels of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater, even in places where the new variants are prevalent (XFG, NB.1.8.1), suggest that any summer wave will be limited, not like previous ones
