During Covid- in 2021 - engineers and experts PROVED that this was wrong. It was a major, MAJOR breakthrough. It’s NOT just Covid. NONE of these viruses are spreading only via droplet. This thing we believed and built our infection control around isn’t true

Don't you get it? If lots of people in your population have lower ability to fight infection, it doesn't just mean those people are more likely to *catch* infections. It means they are more likely to *spread* them too. Let me explain. This is important.

I think that in some cases, the better someones grasp of science, the stronger their need to reject aerosol transmission. Because if they accept that it's a dominant mode of transmission and really understand what that means, the implications are far-reaching and incredibly frightening. For the layperson, it's just "Oh, so like coughs but further yeah? Well I'll take extra vitamins LOL" and they get on with their life of episodic illness, possibly debilitating, but with (to them) unclear vectors. For someone with a good grasp of science, if they really understand what almost every respiratory infection having airborne potential means, than they understand that if true, almost all of the modern indoor spaces we have would be unsafe without massive IAQ upgrades- and in many cases those upgrades might not even be physically possible. If airborne transmission is dominant = Nearly all of our indoor physical infrastructure is dangerous and obsolete without costly upgrades. That is a massive, massive social, political, and financial upheaval to contemplate- and people able to see the big picture implications, rejecting it at a visceral level, when a comfortable, nostalgic paradigm of handwashing and coughing into their elbow is right there for them to cling to, is somewhat understandable. It will take a long time, and a great deal more work before many come around- and many never will. Semmelweis's findings were not accepted during his lifetime- and those were a comparatively minor upheaval.

@les_mull And then a congressman misspelled it furry on his press release. 😂

@mitchblevins We got a whole bunch of bananas to dehydrate. I'm sure I looked like the craziest grocery hoarder.

You jerks may have gotten all the bread and toilet paper, but I have all the avocados. Bwahahaha

@RepublicanoAzul @s_carruthtx @SaraForTexLege The longer they're alive the more opportunity for transmission to humans or mutation to make transmission easier. Besides, the impacted flock of something like cornish cross isn't breeding stock for more of themselves, so the few that would make it couldn't usefully pass it on.

@s_carruthtx @SaraForTexLege Who says culling is viable? Time was if someone had 100 chickens and some illness wiped out 95 of them, preserving the surviving 5 and re-propagating a stronger flock from them would have been a no-brainer. Now, the 'obvious' thing is kill the 100 even if only 1 is infected?

Non-alarmist H5N1 (bird flu) update: With the news that we will not be receiving public updates from the CDC, I want to use my teeny platform to share what I know. My credentials are that I work at the director level for a healthcare organization. The GREAT news is that thus far, the threat to humans remains low. It is ill-advised to have any direct contact with poultry or cattle, so if you can avoid that, do so. The not so great news is that the virus is reaching the inflection point of having potentially devastating effects on our food supply chain. We have already seen the cost of eggs increasing, but it is unlikely that it stops there. As farm outbreaks are discovered, entire flocks are being euthanized. So, what can we do about it? My advice as the situation currently stands is this - if you have the means, invest in a small deep freezer and stock up on meats. Not just chicken, because as chicken becomes scarce, there will be a strain on other sources of protein. What you see pictured here was less than $400 total, freezer included. Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. Y’all stay safe out there!

@les_mull Pseudoephedrine is the good stuff. Phenylephrine is what gets the label PE. It doesn't work for shit on me at least. But at least you can't make meth out of the PE 🙄

@les_mull Did you get the PE version? 😞

@MarshallRodriq @PrairiePhlox Has since the first android phone.

@PrairiePhlox Android doesn’t have a cloud storage for your contacts?

Phone bricked, lost my contacts, text me your name if you know my number. Already tired of new phone who dis

@Floydy_79 @hoolie_r @grok Why?

@hoolie_r @grok remove the mask please

I know those types of people will see the #oneofthetwo trend and use it as fuel for their mockery because they realize they are not as principled and it makes them uncomfortable… ..so let me be yet another “loser.” Deal with your feelings and grow the fuck up, dude.

@elle_carnitine The instant anyone does something they have to account for all the time they did nothing

@NukitToBeSure Do you want it to trigger on death or disconnection?

-Not looking for guesses, Google or AI suggestions- I have those- Does anyone have any *direct personal experience* with a free or affordable hardware source code escrow service? Given that I can be deplatformed/lose net access at any time, I would like a dead-woman switch so that Nukit products can be made by others if needed. It would also help with the BIFL (Buy It For Life) aspect of things if people knew that if Nukit stops making it, they can order the PCB etc. themselves from JLC.

@gotchaculture @SaraForTexLege @unlogicl That's so people like you can understand.

@SaraForTexLege @unlogicl You write like a 10th grader.

And Americans are tired of racist pieces of (expletive) like you. If you hate America so much, feel free to leave. In fact, please do. Find some unclaimed land to set up your white utopian handmaids tale bull shit existence that you drool over. There are like 5 people left on this planet that like you. Go hang out with them and leave the rest of us tf alone.

1/6 PROOF: The DoJ just *DELETED* one of the files they released that contained Trump! Yesterday, file 468 was shown to have a picture of Trump that they missed. We know this because it was downloadable yesterday - as can be seen in my local copy.

@lintile @SecureThisNow Have you recently become a father?

Shower thoughts: if your IP allowlist is too permissive, and the attacker comes at you from an allowlisted IP, does that make it an In-CIDR threat?

@cantcomputer If he's not wearing a jumpsuit, carrying a mop, and trolling muscle-bound meatheads, nah.

We more AI cat videos…

Yale scientists reviewed 100 years of records and found that Long COVID is part of a larger pattern. Viruses like polio, SARS, and EBV have long caused lasting illness in some people, often through immune dysfunction cell.com/trends/immunol…
