A third infant in Kentucky has died of whooping cough this year.
Reminder: The best way to protect against whooping cough is to get vaccinated. Adults should get a Tdap booster every 10 years, so please check, you may be overdue!

We have a lot in common with the United States right now. We also don’t have a GDP, employment or inflation report to share. Our GDP gross domestic poop (guano) is usually tracked, but our Government shut down for Macaroni Breeding season..a real freak off (bottles of sperm whale oil everywhere)

This is so disrespectful and harmful. AIDS hasn't gone away, and to save lives, we need to keep talking about and advocating for better policies.

I think after doing the ”hat exercise” today to examine our business plan, I want to be a black hatted NEGATIVITY COACH. My slogan will obviously be ”Because toxic positivity got us into this mess” :-D

Not only do I have to avoid mentioning the ongoing pandemic during this entire course, I also have to tolerate people singing the praises of AI while it scoops up the last of my work.

Day 6 of Coach School is basically a full-day marketing workshop, which isn’t nearly enough, but it’s a start. And naturally we kicked off with brainstorming, which my brain can’t really cope with until after 10 am.

Getting closer to the end of Mr Mortimer’s book and it’s just as entertaining so far as you might imagine, albeit a lot less random than I expected. But it still has a peppering of the usual surreal details :-D

Monica and her fellow ghouls seem to suffer from amnesia, forgetting that everything outrageous and dangerous they’ve ever written on social media has been screenshotted and preserved for posterity - particularly by Dr Howard here.
Gosh. What a mystery.
How did vaccines become politicized? What could the answer to that question possibly be?

I see it more as an AI boil, with resultant exploding pus as it bursts.
Oh my god that is so much money to manufacture consent for something that so many people do not want, and on which they have bet so much money and infrastructure. Holy shit. The popping of this "AI" bubble is gonna be such a nightmare.
The deal will create the government’s first AI high-performance computing infrastructure, adding nearly 1.3 gigawatts of capacity.

Wow, didn’t know that - didn’t we get the vax on a sugar lump as 1970s kids in the UK?
IPV = injected, cannot cause polio
OPV = oral, small risk of causing polio
OPV only used in some very poor countries where wild polio is endemic for two main reasons: 1) it's easy to get to many people fast, 2) it actually blocks transmission, so can slow an epidemic.
Global shift to IP underway.

Interesting piece on the need to shift from the OPV to the IPV #polio vaccine.

My 5-year old: "Dada, why are my testicles in a little bag?"
Me: "Well, they have to be kept at a constant temperature. So, when it's cold outside, your body brings the bag closer to make it warm. And when it's hot, it moves away to get cool."
