Everyone likes to talk about the 'six degrees of separation' when it comes to connections to famous people... ...but likes to ignore them when it comes to SARS2 chains of transmission. We are all connected. Until we remember this, we can't meaningfully protect anyone. #BCPoli

Imagine today’s child in 30 years realizing their: parents let them get infected with a novel virus for their “mental health” doctors let them get infected with a novel virus for their “mental health” schools let them get infected with a novel virus for their “mental health”+

Honestly? I'm surprised they didn't take it back to 2019, so that they can pretend the pandemic doesn't exist online, just like they do IRL.

B/c @MakisMedicine is a lying grifter, he blocked me & hid my reply to him, calling out his lies -- so that his followers remain oblivious to the lies he uses to manipulate them into wasting their money on his non-scientific "treatments", which means you can't see this in my QT👇

Two years after his death, lying grifter @makismedicine still has a tweet up lying about my cousin's death -- and @x allows disinformation like this to exist, regardless of reports and community notes on the tweets, and the harm caused to families. https://t.co/ayz6jIMtqV

Here, we observe the sciensus ignoramicus -which is, unfortunately, not very elusive- in its natural habitat, the anti-science echo chamber. They give themselves away by proving they don't know the difference between gases & aerosols, let alone anything about static electricity.
@cbarbermd So wearing an artificial filter allows oxygen in but nothing else? Hahaha stay sick jackass

Not an ounce of prevention in this whole damned province. Rough outline of recent convo: GP: You qualify for Prevnar 20... ...but only if you've been hospitalized for your asthma in the past year. Me: We have to wait for hospitalization. GP: Yes. Or until you're 65. 🤦♀️

@ExpatRepeat @1goodtern Friend, couple of years older than me. *Very* fit and healthy. Dropped protections when gov't said so. Had a MASSIVE stroke (like, less than 10% survival rate, IIRC) last year. No fam/personal history. ENTIRE med team: we don't know what caused this. Me: *SCREAMS INTERNALLY*

Also wild? Asymptomatic =/= no damage to your body. There's silent ~cumulative~ damage happening with those infections, too. And then, when you have a heart attack, or stroke, or develop diabetes, or cancer, or Parkinson's, everyone (incl. your docs) is gonna be so shocked...
kinda wild bruh I just read that you can have covid but it can be an asymptomatic case so you wouldn’t even know you have it

My lot in life seems to be to do an accidental Franglais, or conjugate a verb – that I’ve known how to conjugate since I was, I don’t know, eight?! – incorrectly in front of my kids' FRIMM teachers... ...and then suffer middle-of-the-night RSD for it until the end of time…

It’s “Shovel all of your leaves into the street for the street cleaner” time of year for residents in #EastVan.

Everyone remembers when Bonnie Henry stated that Dr. Morawska's letter about airborne transmission of COVID was a 'tempest in a teapot', right? BC Public Health, getting it wrong basically 100% of the time. And doing so without any shame. https://t.co/Oag3NAozxy

Dr. Bonnie Henry says the controversy over airborne transmission of COVID-19 has been overblown, after hundreds of scientists signed a letter calling for the World Health Organization to revise its...
SO WELL DESERVED & A GOOD SIGN 👏 Prof Lidia Morawska has won Australia's most coveted scientific research prize, $250k Prime Minister's Prize for Science for pioneering research about air quality & infectious disease, helping to safeguard Public Health

Them: COVID is no big deal, it's just like the flu. Also them: If the flu takes off, it'll be worse than COVID. Pick a fucking lane, minimizers.

As H3N2 hits Canada, HPAI H5N1 circulates, remember how public health leaders downplayed COV!D, tried to minimize the severity, making flu a priority. Now, here we are…where are these people??
@WestcoastBCLife @AmyTanMD @giraffeamongsh1 @DFisman @dgurdasani1 @FurnessColin @KatharineSmart @DGBassani @lisa_iannattone @LisaBarrettID @nilikm @frozen @AmyTanMD here you go.

I just wonder if Canadian journalists are ever going to contend with their role in getting us to this point. In not challenging governments' & and public health pandemic mishandling - in continuing to enable pandemic minimization, they helped to get us here. Welp.
BREAKING: Canada has lost its measles elimination status. Public health officials announced the news following review from the Pan American Health Organization which confirmed “sustained transmission of the same measles virus strain in Canada for a period of more than one year.”

Not only throttled/shadowbanned. Almost the entirety of my feed is now books and poetry; from accounts I've never seen before. Don't get me wrong, I love books and poetry. But what the actual fuck?! When there were rumours of an algorithm tweak, I wasn't expecting this...
The throttling/shadowbanning/whatever on this site is *wild*.

(He was mouthing off at me for more than a block, yelling down the street. lol. Like, I know masks are so scary for y'all-but maybe do some inner trauma work; spend some time with some actual educational materials. Instead of embarrassing yourselves & teaching your kids bigotry.)

Today's #EastVan ableist: A man riding bikes, sans helmets 🙃, with his ~teenage kid. Her: "What's a loony?" Him: "WHAT WE CALL LUNATICS LIKE HER" This time, at least, an acquaintance happened to ~witness it. They were horrified. And then I said 'it happens all the time'.

Question: Do the ones in red know that if their precious Rapture ever did happen, they'd be the ones left behind?
This woman is running her own social experiment. She's in the south calling various churches and asking if they could feed a starving baby. Here's a list of churches that said yes/no. The few that said yes include black churches, a Buddhist temple, and an Islamic center.
