I hope Julian Assange is relaxing.

The COVID-19 pandemic at 6 years: Mass death, debilitation and media silence As the sixth anniversary of the WHO pandemic declaration passes with total media silence, wastewater data, excess death estimates and new research on Long COVID reveal an ongoing public health catastr...

"The COVID-19 pandemic at 6 years: Mass death, debilitation and media silence"

"The pandemic has killed over 30 million people worldwide, left more than 400 million suffering from Long COVID... It is one of the most catastrophic events in modern history—and it is not over."

Much needed synthesis of the current literature on the long term harms of Covid. Congrats Nancy for an interesting and excellent presentation

The Epstein files contain emails with doctors advising how to get babies to “suck harder”.

Doctors providing abortions to underage girls.

Doctors treating STIs and ectopic pregnancies in children.

None of them have lost their licenses. They enabled a pedophile & they’re still treating patients.

Donate to Support for Washington Post international employees, organized by Michelle Lee Among the hundreds of journalists laid off by The Washington Post on … Michelle Lee needs your support for Support for Washington Post international employees

Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.

One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.

Abolish the billionaire class:

This woman is a hero.

Mark Tramo gave Epstein “tips” to get babies to suck harder

She stood outside his building with a sign that had a quote from the email

She was all alone

One woman & one voice

She screamed as loud as she could. She made sure they heard her

Tramo’s contract won’t be renewed

NBC is editing out footage of JD Vance being booed at the Olympics.

CBS is state sponsored propaganda.

Bezos fired over 300 journalists from The Washington Post and left many stranded in foreign countries.

They’re crowd funding to get home.

Support independent journalism.

More than a decade ago I worked social media for the NDIS. I realised Serco was going to be a service provider. I gave some feed back criticising the decision. Contract not renewed. And now here we are. Serco is now providing outsourced phone case management to the NDIS

A powerful introduction to a parliamentary debate in the Netherlands on post-acute infection syndromes (PAIS), including #LongCOVID, #MECFS, chronic Lyme & post-sepsis conditions.

Dutch MP Kostić describes it as one of the biggest medical scandals of recent decades. (29/1/26)

An entire political movement founded on uncovering hidden messages in documents to discover the powerful secret pedophiles and meanwhile the powerful pedophiles out here sending gmails saying "Hi fellow pedophile when are we meeting to do pedophilia again"

Fast-tracking data centres without sober assessment of systemic risks is a policy of state violence that will contribute to & culminate in social murder via #ClimateBreakdown, increased frequency & intensity of heatwaves, dangerous fire weather, drought, extreme rainfall, floods, sea-level rise etc

Unseen Post-COVID Diabetes: Causes and Forecasts As we navigate through the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, one of the most alarming outcomes is the increasing prevalence of diabetes among those who have been infected with the virus.

“Epidemiological studies have begun to show a concerning trend: individuals with a history of COVID-19 infection are at an elevated risk for developing diabetes, often within months of recovery...” This has actually been known for years, but I’m glad to see more attention on it.

I wonder if people are really ready to live life without vaccines?

Small coffins, small graves…

The need to have more children to take into account the death and disability rate…

What a terrible and sad step backwards…

22. Remember the flu waves in 2020/21?
No, because they didn't happen, despite not acting against airborne transmission.
The rebound wave in 2022 could have been mitigated by ramping up vax, masks, clean air, but no, that's not "normal".
There's no humane sick pay either.

21. Ultimately, we need Govt, public health, and public opinion to cause a paradigm shift where we start taking infectious diseases seriously.
Why do we tolerate "winter pressures" EVERY YEAR?! They are predictable AND preventable. The investment would more than pay for itself...

The man in the white shirt stopped one of the Bondi Beach shooters.

He risked his own life to save countless others.

He didn’t need a gun to do it.

He doesn’t appear to have hurt the shooter.

He stopped him so the police could arrest him.

He’s a hero.

How awful. This is outright health disinformation, lying to the American people. Not only is there massive evidence showing no link between vaccines & autism, there’s not even a plausible mechanism based on what we’ve learned about the genetics of autism, some environmental exposures in pregnancy

Fifteen years of ideological choices to strangle & gut the public realm - NHS to schools to social services to local museums - is what underlies the anger "tearing our country apart"; immigration is simply the scapegoat that the far right are pushing people toward.
Why can't Labour just say this?

Governments have been urged to establish mandatory indoor air quality performance standards and a transparent national system of monitoring and reporting, including universal workplace monitoring and the visible display of real-time indoor air quality data.

Turn on the lights, put on your glasses, get out your chemistry set.

It’s time to do individual responsibility style public health for meat testing.

Canada loses measles elimination status, with US on track to follow The country hasn't been able to curb an outbreak of more than 5,000 cases over the last year, while US cases are at a 33-year high.

btw print media turnaround time means that since we spoke, Canada did lose its measles elimination status! Also likely to happen in the US. COVID denialism continues to fuel grim failures in disease prevention & eradication.

Public Health Is Dead asks: what if public health officials had spent the past few years working to educate the public and actually stop the spread of a preventable, novel illness?":

But who’s screening????

Disgusting. You engaged in political gamesmanship using them as pawns knowing they would get harmed and now you question *their* patriotism because some of them aren't wealthy like you and didn't want to work a high stress job for no pay?

In response to no hostilities, Israel preemptively bombs Lebanon.
