It is such a prevalent fallacy that we need to “build up our immune systems by getting sick”. It’s not a muscle! Whoever perpetuates that myth doesn’t understand a damn thing about how the immune system works.

For example, during Barack Obama’s second presidential term, ICE awarded Palantir a $41 million contract to build and maintain an “Investigative Case Management” system that collects and organizes data culled from a massive surveillance network. @owenjones.bsky.social

When Biden lied in September 2022 saying the pandemic was over many Democrats went along & most Covid precautions ended. With RFK Jr saying Covid is over will Democrats realize he is wrong, protest, and demand restoring the Covid precautions which ended under Biden?

Israel is retaining control of 58% of the Gaza Strip, including the majority of its farmland in eastern Gaza.

Western Gaza was largely built on top of sand dunes, as you can see from the aerial image in the post below.

ISRAEL'S WAR ON GAZA
Israel's withdrawal to the 'yellow line'
In the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire plan, Israel is set to withdraw its troops to the agreed 'yellow line' within 24 hours, after which a 72-hour period will begin for the handover of Israeli captives.

This aerial image from the 1960s shows that the 'yellow line' of Israel's redeployment in Gaza is roughly matching with the border of the area's coastal sand dune, leaving Gaza without the absolute majority of its agricultural areas on the fertile soils in the east.

It will be the first step in determining whether anyone deserves to be listened to, taken seriously, or voted for. Their comments on Gaza in the mid-2020s will be the first gate through which they must pass to be considered worthy of attention by normal people.

The Gaza holocaust will be a litmus test for high-profile figures for decades. Everyone's comments or lack thereof on Israel's genocidal atrocities will be looked up and amplified whenever their name rises to public attention.

I never had much faith in people, even before the current pandemic of Covid-19 began, but what little faith I did have has been sharply diminished, because it seems that at least 99% of the human species has irrationally chosen to accept the irreparable harm of uncontrolled Covid-19.

🏥 Dr. Munir Al-Barsh, Director General of Gaza’s Ministry of Health, outlined several urgently needed steps to support the medical needs in Gaza.

“We demand justice, not pity,” he said. “The health sector is devastated and suffering severely after two years of extermination. The world must stand...

▪️ Field hospitals must be established in the north, center, and south to relieve pressure. Over 17,000 patients need urgent treatment already approved by WHO.

▪️ “Children with cancer and deformities, women with chronic diseases — this is their right.”

▪️ Water and sewage networks must be repaired to prevent epidemics such as cholera, diarrhea, and skin diseases.

▪️ A program is needed to employ health graduates, technicians, and administrators to sustain operations.

▪️ Support is required for prosthetics, assistive devices, and rehabilitation programs to reintegrate people with disabilities into work, education, and society.

Dr.Muneer Alboursh د.منيرالبرش via X (@Dr_Muneer1):
We are facing major challenges in the health sector and thousands of wounded are still in hospitals, while saving patients and restoring hospitals requires a long time… The occupation destroyed Gaza City’s hospitals including Al-Rantisi Children’s Hospital, Sheikh Radwan Clinic, large parts of Hamad Hospital and the Psychiatric Hospital… Thirty-eight hospitals were destroyed and only around twelve remain partially functioning with operating rooms, intensive care units and laboratories destroyed and severe shortages of beds, blood units and ventilators… There are power and water cuts and even clean water is almost unavailable in hospitals… More than 1700 health workers were martyred and over 360 were arrested… Medical teams are physically and mentally exhausted after two years of continuous work… Diseases have spread amid overcrowding and displacement with rising cases of skin infections and diarrhea and disruption of supply chains… More than 17000 wounded must be evacuated immediately and their names are approved by the United Nations… We have estimated our health sector needs at over 7 billion dollars… What is urgently required is to rescue the system by rehabilitating and reopening hospitals or establishing field hospitals, dispatching surgical missions, and supplying medicines, emergency and intensive care materials, chronic disease treatments, vaccines and antibiotics, and opening safe and permanent medical corridors… The
