Without a doubt.

Reminded me of this quote:
"Adopt the pace of nature. Her secret is patience."
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Thank you for sharing this beautiful image of nature's transformation, Geri.

Science is real

Dear universe: I would like to manifest a Covid aware doctor who wears a respirator without me asking ✨

Thank you for your attention to this matter

Hands off Wasaga Beach! Hundreds of thousands of people enjoy these beaches all year round, because these lands belong to the people of Ontario, not wealthy developers. Send a letter to your MPP and the Wasaga Beach City Cou...

The last day to comment on Doug Ford's latest drive to enclose Ontario's public spaces is today. Thankfully, the great team at Environmental Defence has made making a submission easy. I hope you do. #onpoli

I personally think the anti-vaxxer's are fucking stupid. They're willing to bet their children's lives on their wacko beliefs instead of verifiable science.

Heat Waves, Wet Bulb Temps and Wildfires Extreme weather events put disabled lives at risk. We are generally more susceptible to temperature fluctuations, power outages, supply chain issues and more. How can we protect one another?

Wildfires are raging across Canada causing poor air quality for much of Canada and the north eastern US.

If wildfire smoke makes your chronic illness worse, I’ve got tips for you!

Managing bad air sometimes feels like a full time job, but improving indoor air can have major health benefits

The view from our GOES East satellite at sunrise revealed widespread wildfire smoke that is resulting in large areas of unhealthy air quality, and Air Quality Alerts for at least portions of eight U.S. states. Take precautions. Learn how at weather.gov/safety/airquality

I really need my man Neil Tyson to drag RFK jr. on TV. Someone please arrange it!

Other countries really need to start considering vaccination requirements for US visitors (looking at you Canada)

Between the growing anti-vaxx sentiment & RFK Jr’s continued push to restrict access, we could continue to see resurgence of mostly eradicated diseases

Public health is a global effort

Measles isn’t just dangerous – it may erase your immune system The measles vaccine may do more than we thought – and the growing number of outbreaks makes ensuring you’re protected ever more urgent.

The measles vaccine may do more than we thought – and the growing number of outbreaks makes ensuring you’re protected ever more urgent.

‘Much of the very fabric of life on Earth is imperiled.’

Scientists are screaming loud & clear.

But our governments are in the pocket of the psychopaths imperiling us.

We eradicate fossil fuel money from our politics, or we watch this world die.

When I see people wearing a mask in public, I see:

People who care about disabled / chronically ill / immunocompromised people

People who care about others’ health, including their family, friends & community

People who care about their own health

People who know the truth abt COVID & #LongCOVID

Good morning. Yes. Let this sink in. 🌺♥️💙🇺🇸

SARS-CoV-2 Infection Doubles T1D Risk in Children A recent study shows that previously healthy children and adolescents who recovered from SARS-CoV-2 infection face an elevated risk of developing type 1 diabetes in the following 6 months.

A large study showed children & teens who caught Covid had ~2x the risk of being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes within first 6 months of acute infection

Article also refers to the pandemic in past tense 😬

Viruses are bad for your brain.

Human pluripotent stem cell-derived bronchial airway organoids provide insights into differential innate immune and long-term responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection in healthy and COPD. Respiratory infections are a major global health concern, as underscored by the COVID-19 pandemic. To better understand bronchial tissue responses to viral infection, we have developed a preclinical i...

Montpellier researchers grew airway organoids from stem cells of healthy and COPD patients.

After SARS-CoV-2 infection, COPD organoids had stronger, earlier immune responses, more mucus, and less response to antivirals than healthy ones.

Mapping brain changes in post-COVID-19 cognitive decline via FDG PET hypometabolism and EEG slowing - Scientific Reports Scientific Reports - Mapping brain changes in post-COVID-19 cognitive decline via FDG PET hypometabolism and EEG slowing

In Trieste, Italy, researchers studied 28 patients with long COVID and found that even after mild infection, cognitive symptoms were linked to reduced brain metabolism and slower EEG activity in frontal and temporal regions.

Since its Disability Pride Month, reminder that 20 million adults & up to 6 million kids in the U.S. have been impacted by long COVID

You can be an ally by wearing an n95 mask & advocating for better airborne precautions & research 😷

Fatal SARS-CoV-2 Reactivation After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Severe Aplastic Anemia SARS-CoV-2 has been reported to potentially remain in the lower respiratory tract for some time after it is no longer detectable in the upper respiratory tract, and this could be a source of reactivat...

Japan, single case report. A 42-year-old man died from suspected SARS-CoV-2 reactivation five months after mild COVID-19, following stem cell transplant for severe aplastic anemia.

Immunosuppression likely triggered viral return and fatal pneumonia.

State Department Revokes Bob Vylan's Visa Over Glastonbury Performance The Department of State revoked Bob Vylan's U.S. visa following their performance at Glastonbury, where the duo advocated to 'free Palestine.'

Revoking an artist's visa for their speech, no matter how controversial, doesn't make us safe.

The government should not be policing the artistic or political expression of citizens, visitors, or anyone else.

A Texas boy needed protection from measles. The vaccine cost $1,400. Due to the ongoing U.S. measles outbreak, a Texas man worried that his young son was at risk and took him to get vaccinated. The cost of the shot? $1,400.

raise your hand if you're not in NYC but you're following the mayoral election out of a desperate need to believe that good things are possible

Ten reasons to mask:

1. SARS-CoV-2
2. Influenza
3. RSV
4. Adenovirus
5. Rhinovirus
6. Parainfluenza
7. Human metapneumovirus
8. Enterovirus D68
9. SARS
10. MERS

All of which can cause serious long-term health impacts, such as the horrific illness myalgic encephalomyelitis

MUST SEE: Congresswoman Schrier nails conspiracy theorist and unfortunate HHS Secretary, RFK Jr., on the value of vaccines—and it’s glorious.

Schrier also happens to be the first pediatrician in Congress.

Three years ago, Trump’s Supreme Court overturned our constitutional right to abortion.

Abortion bans, allowed by this decision, have killed women. As one of the one in four women in this country who has had an abortion, I will never stop fighting for our reproductive rights.

(1/3) 😡 Lyn Redwood—a former leader of RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine propaganda machine, Children’s Health Defense—is set to present at the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee this week.

She has a blatant conflict of interest and a history of spreading debunked lies about vaccines.
