@DrJamesEHansen We're so lucky that survival is not compulsory, otherwise we'd be in *real* trouble!

People can say what they want about ‘toxic’ Twitter, but it’s the only place where the health fallout from the ‘Living with Covid’ policy is being discussed.

@US_Stormwatch Just use the NWS website. Stop using third-party apps designed for user location tracking. These apps are "awful" because accurate weather is not their primary purpose.

The Weather App on your iPhone is awful (sorry, Apple). I’ve seen tons of screenshots of the upcoming heatwave forecast, and the Weather App is off by up to 5-10 degrees. National Weather Service forecasts are the most accurate source, but unfortunately its website looks like it was built in 2003. @EverythingWX (not an ad) is the only app I know of that displays NWS forecasts in a great user interface. If you are wondering why the Weather App’s forecasts are so inaccurate, it’s because it only uses select raw weather data without any trained meteorologists reviewing it. There are over 120 NWS offices across the US that issue fantastic forecasts using far more models and tools, with real humans reviewing the data. Take the Weather App’s forecast for San Francisco, it’s only forecasting a high of 83°F on Tuesday, while the NWS is forecasting 88°F. The NWS also uses a point forecast system where each grid square covers a 2.5 km × 2.5 km area, which more accurately captures microclimates, perfect for a city like San Francisco. Use the NWS forecast this week and ditch the Weather App.

Public health this last decade.

Peak forecast temperatures over the next 7 days across Western US: Palm Springs: 109°F Phoenix: 107°F Los Angeles: 102°F Las Vegas: 100°F San Jose: 95°F Albuquerque: 92°F Sacramento: 92°F San Francisco: 88°F Denver: 85°F Salt Lake City: 83°F Tahoe City: 71°F It’s only March.

@LeonSimons8 It's not ignorance, media, or even reason. It's human nature: we're hardwired for comfort, short-term gain and to discount the future.

If ur not masking during the current airborne pandemic, u are the same as anti vaxxers. You have adopted the most foundational beliefs of anti vaxx ideology. Mask up, get vaxed, stop the spread of disease. Covid vax doesn’t prevent infection/transmission thegauntlet.news/p/liberals-joi…

@obscuravpn Grandpa hits age-verification, gets confused, stops using the internet. So it protects grandpa from the internet.

I genuinely haven't seen evidence for how age-verification is protecting anyone.

Age verification surveils everyone. That's why we talk about how terrible it is for your privacy.

Replacing fear with anger is not the win some think it is.

To be fair, I wear KN95 / FFP2 in grocery stores. Here's what I do: I put the respirator on before I go inside the store, I get my groceries, then I take it off when I'm outside the store. Do you know what I don't get? Covid.

A single Covid infection can permanently destroy your immune system, (yes even if you’re fully vaxxed). That’s why it’s so crucial to actually prevent infection by wearing a respirator mask and ventilating the air

In southern Utah, a measles outbreak that’s been simmering since last summer is showing signs of wider spread - and people are getting sicker than they expected. nbcnews.com/health/health-…

Millions of people found out the hard way when they refused to listen to AIDS advocates. We’re already in the “find out stage” of Covid, and denial will not protect you. If you’re not trying to avoid Covid, start, then take a peek at the history of AIDS and HIV and how terribly it was handled. Don’t find out the hard way.

People think a respirator is too much trouble. They think it makes them look weird. But once you accept that it is an amazing and effective tool, you get used to it. It makes your life better. You might even love it.

A mask on your face is the best way to keep the blood off your hands
