I’ve given up my day job, so I can practice and see how I go.
Just woke up. Did the movements laying on the bed. Now the room is spinning and my right eye won’t focus 🤣
Pro tip: wake up first 😉
Thanks Sean!
I’m not giving up my day job anytime soon, but here are a couple clips explaining the

So, let me get this right.
Up to 60% of cases are asymptomatic.
Up to 75% of you bastards will hide your positive status.
I don’t want to hear a peep out of anyone dissing people protecting themselves by wearing a respirator 😷

“≈75% reported concealing illness in interpersonal interactions, poss placing others in harm’s way. Motives largely social (parties)
Concealment widely prevalent, concealers trade off risks to others in favor of own goals, potential PH consequences”

But what does AIRBORNE really mean?
The air we breathe is contaminated with the virus 🦠
It can stay in the air for many hours 🦠
If you walk into an empty room it could have residual virus 🦠 in the air
We breathe the virus 🦠 into our bodies where it infects us in seconds
This is what it would look like if you could see Covid. Please share this far & wide. Hopefully, some doctors will see it. Such basic concepts but people have trouble grasping how their actions spread a deadly disease.

Hey, AUSTRALIANS 🇦🇺
Becoming a bit blasé about the COVID wave we are in right now?
Get with the program before it’s too late.
You might be just one infection away from incurable disability.
Yes, Long COVID. That incurable disease state that has no cure.

Hmmm someone saying there’s no correlation between COVID and Cancer.
Do we agree or disagree?
Hit me with your best peer reviewed studies if we disagree!
TIA 😁

“For David Putrino, the "one thing" he wishes people would understand…is the "looming social impact" of long COVID…the workforce being diminished, the fact that people can't think the way they used to think - we're losing intellectual capital…physical capital…social capital”

Politicians don’t have access to academic research 🧐
Seriously, the rest of us manage to figure it out, even when we aren’t actively enrolled in a university degree.
Inexcusable.
Just another attempt to bypass responsibility.

Hey, AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
In light of the health minister’s vaccine update today saying kids won’t be allowed vaccinations, this seems pertinent.
Why are parents letting this govt use them as doormats?
Why is
@Mark_Butler_MP
getting away with denying healthcare to you and your kids?!
CLARIFICATION: When We Said We Didn’t Think Covid Would Harm Kids, We Meant We Didn’t Care If Covid Would Harm Kids.

You remember when we were contact tracing and there’d be a few people who found out they were + and went on EXTENSIVE shopping trips and everyone was like, WTF did you need to go to 10 shops for before you isolated?
