Some tried to mute science. It roared back.

In my opinion, the dismantling of USAID by the current US administration is a large part of why the current Ebola outbreak was not detected earlier. There are likely people dead and dying right now who would otherwise not have been. Politics is the greatest biological risk.

Red Cross volunteers die from suspected Ebola. Heartbreaking. 😢💔

“The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth.”

You know what else died in Palestine and Lebanon? The myth of western humanity. I never want to hear any western leader ever talk about human rights.

This is the right way to speak about it - just say it plainly.

Honestly- where the fuck are the people that can stop this atrocity??

The USDA has kept raccoon rabies out of the central United States for over 30 years by air-dropping fish-flavored ravioli from helicopters. Each one is a small packet coated in fishmeal with an oral rabies vaccine inside. Raccoons, foxes, coyotes, and skunks find them by smell, bite through, and swallow. Many animals that consume the bait develop immunity, helping build a protective barrier across populations. The bait is generally considered safe for pets and tested in many non-target species. The USDA's Wildlife Services has been running this since 1995. Without the bait program, raccoon rabies very likely would have spread much further west. A federal program you've probably never heard of is protecting your pets and your kids by feeding wild animals ravioli from a helicopter.

Obama's America was much safer and much more prosperous. Facts.

Joe Biden literally wrote a memo telling staff that he’d be disappointed in them if they missed family milestones because of work.

@DFisman @RevivalCare Hospital acquired respiratory infections are a documented patient safety problem. N95 masks work. Making them standard in clinical settings isn't cosmetic, it's basic infection control. Why isn't it treated as such?

The implication: hospital-acquired COVID looks both more common and more deadly than strict surveillance definitions suggest. How we count it shapes whether we treat in-hospital respiratory transmission as a measurement footnote or a safety priority.

Here’s a thought — Maybe these people don’t deserve to be handsomely rewarded?

“They want you to own nothing. They want you to rent your car, your house, your entire life from them, from a billionaire class that owns everything around you. That's their ideal future, and we can't let them have it.”

Trump sued his own IRS. Settled with his own government. Secured a $1.8 billion slush fund to siphon toward his allies. Blocked the IRS audits against himself and his family.  This is corruption in plain sight.

Banger after banger. Keep up the good work. Signed, an atheist.

@veggiequeen420 @chaitrovert @_EarnieBanks Gamblers out there playing viral roulette.

@chaitrovert @_EarnieBanks talked to a coworker friend today. FLOORED that she is extremely up to date with literature to the point of having an intellectual conversation about covid with her she admitted she seriously wants to mask again but the “return to masking stigma” is greater than always masking

it's strange that there are so many studies on the long term effects of covid and everyone's just... not reading them & most of the people doing the studies are just not... trying to avoid covid

I'm worried that Trump will launch a war on Cuba, to distract attention from his war on Iran, which distracted attention from his war on Venezuela, which distracted attention from the Epstein files

@cb_grl I’m caring for a young family member disabled by this virus and can say with certainty that they are suffering. Children have fallen victim to the apathy, indifference and selfishness of those who control their lives. It is heartbreaking.
