There's a new virus going around in the UK called nastiflu. Unlike other flus, you can't detect it using flu tests, so it's not being picked up by hospital tracking. But it does show up on covid tests, which is weird, because one of its nicknames is notcovid.

COVID gave me medical issues and now I have to go to appts weekly to figure out/ treat what’s wrong. None of my providers’ offices require masking anymore, so I have to risk getting the virus that gave me the health problems in order to access treatment. #KeepMasksInHealthCare

I wear a mask in public because Covid is NOT mild, it’s a dangerous level 3 pathogen, we are still in an active pandemic. I want masking in public spaces, especially hospitals. If you're about disability justice/activism you'll be doing the same. #MaskUpC19

This article does a nice job of explaining why evidence-based medicine is not the gold standard for public health research. Evidence-based medicine was established to reduce reliance on doctor’s “gut-feelings”. If we want science, we need epidemiology. scientificamerican.com/article/masks-…

The annual meeting of Bridge Engineers of the World ended abruptly when the bridge linking the conference centre to the street collapsed. “We were all saying it looked under-designed and sketchy and should be closed, but you know, (shrugs), what can you do?” said one engineer.
