We’ll never get in front of this outbreak, and learn for the next, if we neglect to test all exposed workers and all cattle. If we don’t find a way to do so soon, this has a great potential to worsen. Are there innovative low cost, rapid ways to test cattle?

It sounds like a boring topic, but air conditioning is more important than you realise. First: there are 2 billion air con units in the world and they account for 10% of all electricity we use. Second: it has revolutionised architecture and totally reshaped global politics...

Apologies if I sound harsh in my comment about H5N1 public genomic data. It is such an important global question and now it is weeks and weeks of mention of widespread cases in mammals in the USA and data not public. Public data is the cornerstone of public health response.

The following is a statement by faculty at the department of sociology at Columbia University. (1/16)
The story of frequent persistence of #SARSCoV2 in multiple organs after mild Covid keeps getting stronger, and correlates (odds ratio >5) with symptoms of #LongCovid 🆕@TheLancetInfDis thelancet.com/journals/lanin…
🧵🙏🏽🫶🏽
7 years ago, I wrote a small piece about a man who was falsely accused of a crime. A few days later, I got an anonymous telling me to look up the woman they called “the evilest white woman on earth.” What happened next is the absolute wildest story you’ll ever hear A thread
In a huge breakthrough in workplace safety, #OSHA has just posted details of 860K worker injuries and illnesses occurring in 2023 in establishments with 100+ workers. My gratitude to the dedicated @OSHA_DOL staff who made this happen. 1/ tinyurl.com/mr3k3b78
Pay attention
@kprather88 @VeeZeeToronto Airborne and Covid origins are intimately tied, and the reason why this got out of control. Gain of Function research without airborne precautions in a BSL-2 setting was a disaster waiting to happen. Kudos to you for calling this out; hopefully it will prevent future similar…
Trying to understand breakdowns in communication during the pandemic. We tried to write a publication with Saskia Popescu and Angie Rasmussen. They backed out when I refused to eliminate the word "airborne". Here are their exact words: "We believed that the goal of this" (1/)
Note to Journalists: This is not a FREAK work accident. Hundreds of workers are killed every year getting trapped in machinery. There are #OSHA standards to prevent workers from getting trapped in machinery. nypost.com/2024/04/11/us-…
Approved in Japan, this self-amplifying Covid vaccine that uses much lower doses of mRNA, with less side-effects and potential longer duration of efficacy, is a better template than current mRNA shots cell.com/cell/abstract/…

It absolutely makes no sense to me… how charities that are meant to be for patients either strokes, diabetes, heart problems, cancers… do not do any health promotional work on the topic of C19. Some of them are actively promoting spreading it. The world is upside down.
