New paper on Masks: Some claim scientific studies show masks don’t work, or that surgical masks are as good as N95s. Just released paper shows this claim is false. Masks work, and N95 respirators give a much higher benefit than surgical masks.1/

Instagram is dead. In the next 3 - 5 years, every single image in social media will be generated by AI. And here is the kicker: It will be impossible to tell fake from reality. I wrote a few lines of Python code to show you how screwed we are:

I'm sad. Very sad. We lost a nurse colleague to suicide. Our hearts are broken. So many questions. We are mourning. Crying through our shifts while still caring for patients & working short-staffed. Please check on nurses. Fight for nurses. We wonder who else is struggling 😢

Our team reviewed the coroner's files of migrant agricultural workers' deaths from 2020 and 2021. Several did not make it to the hospital for treatment. migrantworker.ca/wp-content/upl… @SaraMojtehedz @TaviaGrant 1/4

An ambulance dispatched to the wrong address. Workers turning down health care over cost fears. Employers — not health professionals — monitoring COVID symptoms. This is what coroners' records reveal about 9 migrant workers who died on Ontario farms: thestar.com/news/gta/2022/…

Interesting. Prophetic. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

Funny (and sadly accurate) take on academic publishing & open access fees which are exploitative & also available only to funded researchers who can afford them - less likely to be junior researchers, students, critical & qualitative researchers & all the many in precarious jobs.
