People always talk abt what they would've done to stop Hitler if they knew what was going to happen. The problem w/that when seeking answers for NOW is that most of those ideas involve illegal violence. What can avg citizens legally do to stop this law-defying pres? #resist #nokings #savedemocracy

"Even individuals who did not become seriously ill with COVID-19 may have developed a weakened immune system that could lead to serious illnesses in the future... The study also suggests that the coronavirus may worsen other illnesses."

I'm always baffled by the "I don't mask, but you're smart for doing that" type of remark. It's reflective of the massive cognitive dissonance ppl have abt covid. They have some understanding that it can cause serious probs, but competing motivations drive behaviors that are at odds w/that knowledge.

There's the "I don't still mask but I get all the boosters" perspective. Yes, great that you cont to get vaxxed, but this represents prob the most common misconception. Ppl wrongly think the vax prevents infection much more than it actually does & protects them from any serious sequelae, incl LC.

Some defend masking for elderly or immunocompromised ppl, or say they themselves mask to protect "vulnerable" family members. Yes, that's a good thing, & those groups certainly are at risk, but SO IS EVERYBODY ELSE. We are *all* vulnerable to covid's long-term vascular & neurological sequelae, etc.

For all the covid realists still masking 😷: Next time I'm at a healthcare appt & request staff to mask, I want to say, "My family & I mask religiously in public spaces, & we're the only ppl we know IRL who, as far as I know, have never had covid (nor had any airborne illness for the past 6 yrs)."⬇️

2/ Doctors & other HCWs should be high-fiving the hell out of us for working so hard to protect our health, like cheering on runners in a marathon. Instead of getting offended & sulking when asked to mask, they should be eager & excited to support our efforts. ⬇️

3/ (And I know that, despite strict masking & other precautions, sometimes ppl still catch covid & other viruses. But masking is likely still preventing even more infections from occurring, which helps protect your health!)

Admiral Brian Christine at the US Dept of Health & Human Services says someone has to be symptomatic in order to spread the Andes hantavirus, but the European CDC says otherwise. From their page on this outbreak:

Get your Novavax/Nuvaxovid covid booster b4 availability ends (more will come out this fall)! Spread the word to ppl in your life who are hesitant abt the mRNA vaxes that Novavax is a more traditional protein-based vaccine & seems to induce longer-lasting antibodies (usually w/fewer side effects).

I have yet to read this headline without bursting into laughter, and I'm going on ~20 times now. I have to stop. I have things I need to do today, which now includes making waffles.

Great time to remember that damage from even mild covid infections- including in vaccinated people- shows up in a multitude of ways.

COVID-19 can also cause organ damage in individuals without symptoms, who would not fall under the current definition of Long COVID. This organ damage, whether symptomatic or not, can lead to various health impacts such as heart attacks and strokes…” doi.org/10.1515/mr-2...

This isn't just a "cringe" attempt at humor- it's more propagandizing to downplay the widespread harms of covid, which are STILL happening. The billionaires lose $$ when ppl don't travel, eat out, etc. It was the AIRLINES- not science- that initially drove the effort to fully open things back up.

This Cointelpro-Os cereal box makes a good point that's also relevant for our current US situation: "Disinformation is widely used by dictators and fascist regimes, but it can also be turned back around on them, sowing chaos, distrust and the collapse of the totalitarian state." Food for thought.

Translation: NATO told him to get fucked on Greenland. Now he’s going to try to sell putting the Golden Dome (which we were already going to do) in Greenland as a win.

Not only was Mayor Frey's use of the F word excusable, it was APPROPRIATE, precisely for the same reasons it's normally considered impolite: it's shocking & can convey intense negativity. His use of it signaled anger, contempt, & an unwillingness to "play nice" with government-sanctioned murderers.

WELKER: Do you bear any responsibility to bring down the temperature? FREY: Of course. But I dropped an F bomb and they killed somebody. I think the killing somebody is the inflammatory element here and not the F bomb.

A brief, intense workout may do more than boost fitness—it could help fight cancer. Researchers found that just 10 minutes of hard exercise releases molecules into the bloodstream that switch on DNA repair and shut down cancer growth signals. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

Proper info on masking cont. to be relevant as we enter into year 7 of the C19 pandemic, & esp now that many who don't normally mask are considering doing so again spec. bc of flu.

Biden: So, folks, that's my message to all of us today, to all who love our country, to all of us are dismayed by the present state of the union: it's time to get up, get up and fight back. Get up. Continue to fight. What's the fight all about? Protecting the constitution.

Covid is STILL circulating & causing harm to our brains, hearts, kidneys, etc. The vax- though imp't for reducing severity of acute illness- does NOT prevent infection, transmission, or the long-term damage done by this virus. Btw, asymptomatic cases (~half!) ARE contagious & also cause damage.

World Health Network@thewhn.bsky.social

COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.

I sincerely appreciate Alt CDC (& all altgov accounts), but a lot of good people- including scientists & healthcare providers- have bought into the false claim that covid is nbd, esp. if you're vaxxed, despite science showing us that's not true. The cognitive dissonance is absolutely maddening.

EvolutionaryEve@evolutionaryeve.bsky.social

When are all the "I believe the science" folks going to actually follow the science on covid? Science tells us covid cont to seriously damage the brain, heart, & pretty much every body system, even in young, healthy, vaccinated ppl. MASKS WORK & should be modeled by those claiming to be pro-science.

This is wonderful. Happy Wednesday, everybody!
